"Of the three companies I interviewed for my work, Unicorn demonstrated knowledge about the proper way to cut trees. They were up front about providing insurance information. The job was tricky and they did a great job to keep my fence safe. And they did a great job cleaning up. Good folks!"

"Trimming was complete and nice cleanup done.   The workers even went out of their way to cleanup branches that had been cut down by a fence vendor and just left behind the fence.
Vendor very willing to work with change of plan on what needed done during the service.  Originally Cottonwood was going to be trimmed but in such poor shape, dangerous for climber and wouldn't last much longer so decided to remove.
Tree and stump that was removed....   used stump grinder.  All of the stump debris was left and was told it would disappear shortly by being watered.  It is still there after 3 months, will need to remove ourselves.  Also...some large roots coming off of this tree within a couple of feet are still there and poking out of the ground.  They were hidden under the stump debris.  We will need to dig out. in order to level ground.   I wouldn't hesitate to use vendor again but would be more forceful in making sure all of  the cleanup on a stump removal was done and check for problems with roots.  I attribute this issue to the fact that this work was done late in the day and it was getting dark.

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

No. Topping a tree refers to severely cutting down all its major branches and tree in a straight line. It was once recommended for streetside deciduous trees but has fallen out of practice. Topping leads to many problems, removing so much of the tree that many trees struggle to survive and become much more vulnerable to insects and diseases. Also, it doesn’t really help tree growth as once assumed and often leads to an ugly appearance of many sprouting stems in competition to become new main branches.

Tree removal can be quite expensive, especially for larger projects, but you can use the following tips to help keep costs down:

  • Do the yard cleanup afterward yourself

  • Choose to leave the logs on your property and split them yourself

  • Opt to leave the stump in the ground and tackle stump grinding yourself

  • Pull permits for tree removal, if necessary, to avoid fines

  • Pay to have multiple trees removed at once

  • Remove tree in the late winter or early spring during off-season

The best time to prune Japanese flowering cherry trees depends on where you live and the type of flowering cherry tree. Some trees benefit from being pruned toward the end of winter or early spring, after the last freeze. Meanwhile, other trees do well after blooming, in late spring or early summer. Avoid pruning your flowering cherry tree in the early winter, as this encourages open wounds that can lead to infections or infestations. 

Yes, it’s okay to trim low branches on a tree, also known as limbing up or raising the crown. Essentially, you’ll trim the lower third of the tree (trunk) and leave the upper two-thirds of the tree (crown). Arborists recommend trimming 20% of a tree’s leaves per season for two to three seasons. Trimming low branches allows light to flow through the tree, increasing circulation and making the tree stronger and healthier.

It will take you anywhere from 15 minutes to two hours per tree stump to grind and remove the stump from the ground. The larger the size, the longer it will take to remove the stump. Also, keep in mind that rocky soil may require local excavation services to loosen up large boulders before you can begin to remove the tree stump.
