"I will hire Casey again and again when I need tree service. He was very careful and attentive to detail. Professional all the way around. My trees look awesome and he cleaned up the fallen branches and debris after trimming my trees to the point I never knew he was there. Great company to work with. Thank you again Casey for a job well done!"

"Ayla Tree Service was phenomenal! We had an issue getting a tree service out after hurricane Helene for six months!! I looked on Google for tree services near me for our community and I found Ayla! They were there the next day to give me an estimate! They started the job that next week! They understood the assignment and kept you in the knowing. These trees were not just cut but pruned, they know what they’re doing and they do it so well, that you couldn’t even tell there was debris made of any kind! The cleanup was fantastic! About 80 people living in one community and not one had an issue! We are very thankful for Ayla Tree Service and you will be as well!"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Not all leaning trees are dangerous, but they can be a hazard as gravity may eventually cause them to fall. A key factor is whether the lean is new or has been present for a long time. Trees that have grown with a lean for years are not typically an immediate danger, but a sudden lean is a cause for concern as it often indicates weakening roots. If a tree is leaning more than 15% from vertical, you should consider having it straightened or transplanted. To be safe, it's always best to hire a professional arborist to inspect any leaning tree to assess the risk and avoid potential accidents.

Most plum trees are pruned into a vase or open wine glass shape. They’ll have a shorter central leader (the trunk) that supports three to four main branches. Of course, this isn't always the case. If you have a European plum tree, you can grow it in a pyramid shape. Let the central leader extend the length of the tree and prune smaller branches to create the pyramid.

It may not be worth it to rake every leaf in your yard, but it’s necessary to remove the majority of leaves to prevent them from smothering grass growth on your lawn. However, raking leaves isn’t your only option for leaf removal. You can remove leaves easily with a leaf blower or compost or mulch them with your lawn mower to repurpose them to help grow your garden or yard.

State and local laws vary, but in most cases, you are allowed to trim any branches from your neighbor's tree that cross your property line. However, it's important to ensure you do not damage the overall health of the tree in the process. Removing branches incorrectly can jeopardize the health of the tree and could lead to you being on the hook to replace it.

In nature, there are many things that can cause a tree to die, including diseases, insects, and natural disasters such as fires or droughts. Non-natural methods of killing a tree include herbicides or manual intervention, such as cutting it down. Consult a tree removal professional about your options for naturally killing a tree.
