"The people at Kanesville Valley were amazingly responsive, courteous and professional. The crew that came to remove a massive fallen tree from my property were amazingly skilled at their trade and maintained a safe environment. My back yard is awkward to even maneuver private vehicles into and these guys were able to skillfully bring their giant crane truck in and maneuver around making quick work of what would have been a week long undertaking without the use of their specialized equipment. They handled the debris removal expertly, being cautious to prevent any further damage, carefully lifting tree parts off of a shed, yard equipment and even a vehicle, leaving them unscathed. Their skill and expertise, coupled with their specialized equipment that makes the job faster and safer would have been well worth it at twice the price! They will be the first company I call and the first company I recommend for any type of tree work needed."

"The job done was very professional. The amount of trimming 20 plus feet in the air was done to perfection. We had two huge maple trees trimmed, the lower tree had a 10" branch remove that was located over the frozen canal plus allot of other branches and limbs removed.. The front yard tree was trimmed and thinned out where we wanted it to be. All the limbs and debris were removed to make it as if nothing was cut and all logs and tree branches cut up for firewood were stacked where we wanted them. I would highly recommend this company for any tree cutting services. We were very pleased with the service and will definitely hire them again in the future if needed. We will recommend them to anyone who asks where we got out tree trimmed from."

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

DIY pruning is possible for small trees and shrubs with basic tools. However, for larger trees, more hazardous removals, or to ensure proper pruning techniques are used, it is recommended to hire a professional for safety.

Trees that flower in the spring—like dogwood, cherry, magnolia, and pear—should not be pruned during the winter. These spring-flowering plants grow buds on old growth, so you’ll actually remove what would’ve been gorgeous flowering foliage. Instead, wait to prune until right after they bloom, when the flowers fade.

The best pro to hire for spraying trees is a tree maintenance specialist. These pros are well-versed in selecting the right spray treatment and applying it properly to ensure there’s no collateral damage to the tree or surrounding landscape. Many tree maintenance services employ certified arborists, but for these routine visits, the extra investment usually isn’t necessary.

Finding a reliable arborist starts with researching specialists in your area and checking their licensing and certifications. Use online resources like the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to conduct research on each company. Next, contact the arborist and ask the following questions to see whether they are the right fit for your project:

  • Do you handle or specialize in dealing with the issue I’m having?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Do you have any third-party certifications?

  • What equipment and strategies do you plan to use?

Some trees, such as silver maples, birches, sycamores, and scotch pines, shed their bark naturally. If your tree is not one that does this, it might have fallen prey to pests, fungi, or diseases. It could also simply be suffering from an extreme weather change, such as a snowstorm or heat wave. If you’re still stumped, consulting with a pro can help you diagnose your tree’s specific problem.
