Customers say: Quick response

"We chose Devin & his crew, via his day rate, to tackle a big job that involved nearly every service he offers: tree removal, shrub removal, tree trimming, pruning, stump grinding, and cleanup. We found him and his crew very professional yet personable, hard-working, knowledgeable, skilled, efficient and conscientious. We give Devin our 5-star review because there really wasn't anything he could have done better and he did everything (and more) that we asked for at a very reasonable price. As Devin says, "we work this hard EVERY day." If you want work done well, Devin and his crew are your folks."

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"

"They did a great job getting my trees trimmed and ready for spring. They got me scheduled for a free estimate the same week I reached out and they were able to complete the job fast. I would highly recommend them, they are easy to work with and my trees haven’t looked this good in a long time."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.

Trees aren't big fans of moving, and they do go into shock during a transplant. Although most carefully thought-out tree transplants see the tree recover from the shock just fine, there is always a risk of having an unsuccessful move. Proper preparation, timing, and diligent aftercare are crucial to minimize the risks when transplanting a tree.

There are two types of arborists: certified and consulting. A certified arborist is licensed and equipped to provide tree pruning, planting, fertilizing, monitoring, transplanting, treatment, and removal services. A consulting arborist specializes in tree appraisals, diagnosing problems and recommending treatments for illnesses. However, they will not provide these services themselves. Most consulting arborists are certified arborists who can refer you to a tree service that can administer the correct treatments.

Some people prefer to leave or even carve a leftover stump, but we recommend removing it if possible. You can often dig out smaller trunks with a shovel once they have died and dried out. You can have stumps professionally removed, or request a service to grind them down to ground level so they can be replaced with other landscaping or objects.

Before you cut down a dead palm tree, try to revive it using the methods listed above. However, there are instances when it makes sense to remove a dead palm tree, including:

  • The heavily infected tree will infect nearby trees, bushes, and plants.

  • The palm’s roots are overtaking your yard, foundation, and sidewalk and causing structural damage.

  • The tree is unstable and a hazard to your property, your neighbor’s property, and pedestrians.
