"We just had a dead ash tree removed this week from our back yard and used CRO Outdoor Services. The tree was in a precarious location. About 10 ft, from our pool, our garage, and close to our home. The tree was over 34 yrs old so it was a large tree. But they did it expertly, cutting branches and lowering them with ropes. Not one single thing damaged and everything was cleaned up and raked. Very pleased with they're customer service and the friendliness of all the crew. Thank you for a job well done. Marlo and Debbie"

"Excellent service. David and his team did a wonderful job sanding down my flaked trim and then putting on two fresh coats. I also used David's Tree Service to remove some shrubs from the side of the house. The crew worked carefully and efficiently. Fair and competitive pricing. I would recommend Torres Painting and Torres Tree Service."

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

DIY home gardening can be relaxing, joyful, and cost-effective. From mowing your lawn to planting your own flower beds, there is a wide variety of gardening tasks that you can do yourself to make your yard look beautiful. If you’d rather spend your time not in the dirt, or if you’d like someone to take care of your plants for you, calling a professional gardening service is best. They can give you a workup of what services you’ll need and how often to schedule them.

Trees naturally want to grow upward, so one may straighten all by itself, though this only comes into play when a tree is leaning just a small amount. For trees growing into an awkward position or those leaning heavily in one direction, the above steps are necessary to ensure the tree gets back on the right path. This also holds true for trees planted in a spot with unstable soil.

No. Most of the time, suckers are only a sign that the tree is experiencing stress. However, they can also be the canary in the coal mine, letting you know that something else is stressing your tree. If you have lots of suckers on your tree, calling in an arborist or a tree care expert is always a good call to determine the cause and develop a solution that de-stresses your tree.

The best time to trim trees is in late fall through winter when the tree has slowed its growing for the year. Cold weather stops insects and fungal growth from attacking a new tree wound. Summer and fall are considered the worst times to trim trees, but it’s permissible in certain scenarios, such as tree disease, damaged branches, or small, aesthetic cuts.

You may wonder whether tree removal is tax deductible: Tree removal is not tax-deductible for homeowners unless it's related to a federally declared disaster. In that case, the cost may qualify as a casualty loss. However, if you own a commercial property, like a rental home, tree removal could be deductible if it's necessary for safety, maintenance, or part of a larger capital improvement project, and you must hire a professional tree removal service and keep documentation. Always consult a tax professional beforehand to see if you qualify.
