"I watched the team the whole time they were working. The gentleman who did the majority of the tree cutting was an artist. The precision with which he could drop a tree amazed me. They had no wiggle room where the trees were between two houses and power lines. Yet they were all dropped precisely. One of the trees had to be brought down in sections and again it was a precise process. The cleanup after the cutting was good. Tree removal can be a messy job with lots of lawn damage but this team minimized the lawn damage and cleaned up before they left. They were fast and efficient and amazing to watch. My neighbors were so impressed they also requested quotes from AC for tree removal. No regrets at all."

"I have a backyard now! Javier went above and beyond what I asked for. I had trees towering so closely to my home. He did a great job cutting them down for me. He cut about 24+ trees after we agreed on 16. And the price was more than fair. I got the best deal you could get. And the customer service was unmatched. He even cute some roots that were growing towards my house free of charge. I am more than happy with the service I got from JLD tree service. 10 out 10 HIGHLY recommend."

"Loved the team at Tree Meisters. They quickly helped to set up an appointment and were in and out of the yard within an hour. Was especially happy on the final clean up. Left my yard much better then they found it. Would recommend them highly."

"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."

"Great experience. Chris is super professional and very responsive. He is very knowledgeable about his craft and his prices super reasonable. I am so glad I found this company and look forward to using their services for future lawn care projects. I used them to trim my shrubs and a trees and was so satisfied with the quality of work I received that I will be using them for larger lawn projects as well."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally, you should prune around 20% of an apple tree’s growth—and never more than 30%. This means that if you have a severely overgrown tree, it can take a few seasons to prune it back enough to produce the healthiest fruit. 

If you’re dealing with a newly planted or juvenile tree, hold off on pruning beyond the initial shaping. Wait at least a couple of seasons into fruit production since pruning can increase the number of water sprouts and unproductive foliage.

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.

Unfortunately, if you cut the top off a palm tree, it will die. Instead of budding or branching out, the top begins to slowly rot. That's why having a professional tree trimming at least twice a year is a good idea. If you don’t have experience with trimming your palm tree, you might accidentally cut the top off, leaving a dead and rotting tree in your wake.

Whether tree roots will continue to grow after a tree has been cut down depends on the species. Some tree roots will eventually die because they can no longer get nutrients through photosynthesis. However, other species that reproduce through root sprouts can continue to grow and produce new sprouts for seven years or more. For example, the roots of elms, ficus, and willows tend to regrow aggressively, while the roots of pines, oaks, and maples will typically die. To determine if a root system is still active, look for new sprouts on the old trunk, stump, or any exposed roots.

While the trees in your backyard are good for the environment and look beautiful, they could present a danger to your home under the wrong circumstances. This task is typically beyond the capabilities of the average homeowner due to its dangerous nature, so it’s best to leave this task to a professional. In some cities, it’s even illegal to remove a tree yourself.
