Customers say: Quick response

"Devin, the owner, was a pleasure to work with. He is a certified arborist and really knows what he is doing. He gave recommendations about what trees to prune and/or remove based on their overall health and structure. He was an excellent communicator and was on site for at least part of the day his professional crew were working here. He truly cares about his customers experience and welcomes feedback. His prices were competitive and I will definitely be using Chandler Tree Service again."

Customers say: Quality work

"This was the first company to respond and I decided to hire them. Their estimate was very close to the others. A small amount of damage was done when felling the trees but it was minor and they did the repairs in a timely manner and very professionally. I like the guys who did the work. I had 3 trees taken out and they were all very big and close to the house. John kept in contact with me throughout the whole job. I would hire them again."

"If you want hard workers that are professional and at the same time personal, this is the company to go with! Joshua and his team are quick, efficient, and thorough. He took down five dead aspen trees for me and pruned and shaped a crab apple. The clean up was so thorough and complete. He also fit us in just five days after the estimate. The price was much lower than any other estimate we had. I"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

We don’t recommend DIY tree trimming for a few different reasons. First, the tools required to trim a tree can be costly, up to $1,100 or more, for the ladders and specialized saws needed. 

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’s safest to let a tree-trimming professional assess the work needed.

Lightning can cause massive damage, fires, and openings for other threats like bugs or fungal diseases. Barring any large fires or explosions, it’s difficult to tell how much damage a lightning strike has done until after a thorough inspection. Contact local authorities immediately if lightning strikes a tree in your yard and it causes a fire or explosion.

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.

You can use a felling ax to chop down a tree by following the same prep and steps as a chainsaw, but be prepared to use some muscle. For trees bigger than 7 inches in diameter, it can take some time and serious strength to cut down a tree using just an ax. 

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.
