"Rico responded immediately about my tree removal. He came over the same day to quote the project and we scheduled the removal for the Monday Morning. Due to weather and a previous project running longer than expected, his crew wasn't able to get to the job until the following afternoon. The crew worked quickly and efficiently to remove the huge dead tree. Their cleanup was excellent and aside from a few track marks in the yard from the bobcat and removing the massive sections of tree, everything was intact. They moved flower pots & low hanging yard lights out of the way, so nothing was disturbed.. The put the tree near the road and it was picked up the following day. A piece of branch fell and broke one of the pickets on my fence and Rico came out within an hour of his crew leaving to replace it. I would definitely recommend Rico & his crew for tree removal projects! The only mild complaint is that I reached out to find out that he was coming a day late, instead of him contacting me."

"I called Tymberland Stump Removal on 7/27/21, they came out promptly and gave me a very fair and reasonable quote to grind two tree stumps. He came prepared to do the work then. The young man did a fantastic job. He was very polite, kind and professional. I would highly recommend him to perform any stump removal you may have. May I also add that I used them a few years ago and they are still just as great as ever!! I am a very satisfied customer."

"Wow! These guys are great. Ultimate professionals and showed compassion for what they do! I would use them again without reservation. Chris called to confirm our appointment, arrived at our home on time and provide a detailed estimate after walking our property. He took his time explaining exactly what to expect and estimate time to completion. There was no pressure and answered all questions. We were given an estimate that was slightly higher than comparable. We selected because of the trust factor. You cannot help but discern that they perform this labor-intensive task but for the love of trees and family. Once we agreed to the estimate, he started the job the next day. July 3. Once he started he realized that the job was bigger than he expected and would take an extra day. It's so rare to find quality workmanship but they have it and more. Chris the owner was on site and worked hard himself both days. That speaks volume about his company and personal work ethics. He was a gentleman and made sure we understand everything. I really enjoyed getting to know him. His experience is unparalleled. I would recommend him to anyone no matter the size of the job. He is professional and you get quality and timely work. Also, a great value to dollar spent, my yard was a difficult one with space and number of trees and debris that needed to be hauled. At the end of his job, we still had stumps that needed to be grind down, he called and set that up for us for a good price. Thank you, Chris. Keep up the good work."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

It may be possible, but transplanting a large, mature tree can be a tricky project, and some trees handle it better than others. If you have a tree you need to save and are considering transplanting it elsewhere, we highly suggest calling a tree removal service and arranging a consultation to see what they say (and how much a full transplant would cost).

Often, it’s the homeowner’s responsibility to handle the aftermath when a neighbor’s tree falls on their property. But if a tree has been obviously dead for a significant period of time and caused damage when it fell, a case can be made that the owner should have removed it, especially if the neighbor wrote you a letter about the tree or asked you to take it down. This can be grounds for a successful lawsuit in claims court and is a good reason to always pay attention to your trees and remove dead trees before they fall.

You should plant trees at least 15 to 20 feet away from your house, and more if the tree will grow large and spread its limbs. Trees pose several dangers to houses when planted too close. They can litter the roof with leaves and branches, create fire hazards, make a ladder for larger pests, and even damage the foundation as their roots grow.

Your neighbor is not in a good position to know if your trees are truly dead or pose any kind of danger. That’s why hiring an arborist or tree service expert can be such an important part of the process. If the trees are still alive and don’t pose any threat, you’re in the clear (but you may want to document and photograph everything in case events turn sour down the road).

But if a tree is visibly dead and near the property line, you should remove it to be safe. If a dead tree falls on a neighbor’s property, they may have grounds to sue for negligence. If any branches on trees have died, it’s a good idea to cut them back for similar reasons.

It’s not always easy to tell when a tree is dying, although signs like dropping branches and brittle bark can sometimes offer clues. It can also be difficult to know whether a tree is dead or dormant, especially if it’s a deciduous tree. You’ll want to wait until a growth season to get a good idea of a tree’s health. When in doubt, contact an arborist for a consultation.
