Q: Do I need a permit to take down my tree?

• <div><p>In some states and municipalities, you will need a permit to remove a tree on your property. In many cases where permits are required, a tree must reach a maximum height before a permit is required to remove it. You can either ask your local building department or a tree removal professional if you&rsquo;ll need a permit. If you do, you can expect to pay between <b>$50 and $150</b> for the permit alone. Your tree removal company should pull the permit for you and include the permit fee in your total.</p></div>

Q: When should I schedule an arborist to prune my tree?

• <div><p>Ideally, you should wait to prune until trees have gone dormant in late fall to early winter. The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/worst-time-prune-trees.htm">worst times to prune trees</a> are early fall and late summer, as pruning them so close to dormancy makes it difficult for the tree recover before it goes dormant for the season.</p></div>

Q: How do I tell if a tree is dead?

• <div><p>A few signs a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/5-reasons-why-you-should-remove-dead-tree.htm">tree may be dead</a> is if the leaves are dead and there are no signs of new blooms. You can also perform a scratch test on some of the branches to check the condition of the cambium layer beneath the bark.</p><p>If it is green, it is still alive, but if several are dry, brittle, and brown, the tree may be dying or dead. Always consult an arborist before assuming your tree is dead because you may be able to save it.</p></div>

Q: What is the best month to plant trees?

• <div><p>Late August, September, and mid-October are the ideal months for planting a young tree. However, the best time to plant a tree ultimately depends on when the weather transitions to fall-like conditions and eventually winter frost. As long as the hottest days of summer have passed and the ground hasn&rsquo;t frozen yet, you can still successfully plant trees.</p></div>

Q: Can I trim a tree myself?

• <div><p>We don&rsquo;t recommend DIY tree trimming for a few different reasons. First, the tools required to trim a tree can be costly, up to <b>$1,100</b> or more, for the ladders and specialized saws needed. </p><p>Safety is another concern, especially when working with more mature trees. As a guideline, you should only DIY tree trimming when branches are less than two inches in diameter. Any more, and the safety risk becomes too high, which could lead to catastrophe. For this job, it&rsquo;s safest to let a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/5-tips-get-best-tree-service.htm">tree-trimming professional</a> assess the work needed. </p></div>
