"Very professional. Removed a Huge Maple, a pine, and an Ash tree. They worked hard , fast, & were here every day. They went above and beyond when asked and questions, and the price was the very best I was quoted. I highly recommend Sizemore Tree Service, and will hire them again for my next job. If I could give 10 stars, I would"

"Cory was able to get to my house quickly to do an estimate and had me scheduled much sooner than any other tree service I called, most of which never showed up when they said they would, or some at all. They did great work, would definitely recommend and I will continue using them."

"I was at first skeptical because I did not see a better business bureau rating, however, Shawn followed through on his word completely. They re-shingled my roof within the time period promised which was only two weeks, and completed the entire job in a day. The workers were respectful and picked up the nails and debris as promised. It has rained several times since then and the roof has not leaked. This company uses Atlas Shingles and replaced my 4 roof vents with a hidden vent running the entire length of the roof. He gave me a nice discount and even secured a loose gutter on the top half of my siding at no additional cost. In addition Shawn always responded to my phone calls within an hour if he wasn't able to answer me at the time."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

It can take anywhere from one month to a couple of years for tree roots to grow back in sewer lines. Tree roots can cause extreme havoc on your sewer lines, potentially cracking them and causing untreated wastewater to make its way into the groundwater. Have a landscaping pro remove trees and roots before installing your system, or call a pro to do it retroactively as soon as you can.

The felling notch you make before you make the final cut will determine which way the tree will fall. The cut will be in a wedge or triangle, and the tree will fall from the highest point of the triangle. You can use this, as well as the process described above, to estimate where a tree will fall. 

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

Pruning trees during the summer can be a bad idea because the new growth will take place during the hottest months of the year, which can stress your tree out. Similarly, pruning during the early fall can be a bad idea, too, because you’d be stimulating new growth when most trees are aiming to go dormant. 

Pruning recommendations will vary by the type of tree, but generally, waiting until winter to prune your trees is a good idea.
