"They did an outstanding job on removing a maple tree that was encroaching on the sprinkler system control box. I hated to see a tree removed but they did an amazing job. 7 workers trimmed and cut limbs,removed the tree, used a wood chipper and ground the stump and cleaned up all leaves and sawdust. They even cut some limbs to 16inch lengths for firewood. Great crew. We are very pleased and will recommend them to our friends."

"I just had a fantastic experience with Don from Nelson Tree Artistry! He came out to grind down a massive 5 ft diameter stump in my yard, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Don was incredibly professional and friendly. He showed up right on time and got straight to work. Not only did he handle the stump with impressive skill, but he also made sure to clean up the area afterward, leaving my yard looking great. I really appreciated how respectful he was of my property, it felt like he genuinely cared about doing a good job. If you need any tree services, I highly recommend reaching out to Don at Nelson Tree Artistry. He’s fantastic, and I’m really grateful for his hard work! Thank you, Don!"

"Nice guys. Prompt, responsive, efficient. They had the right tools, equipment, and expertise for the job. Most of it was chipping up large piles of limbs and forest debris. It was arduous at times, but they got it done."

"North Idaho Tree Works was recommended to us by our neighbor who was really happy with Josh's work, and we can't recommend Josh and his team enough! Super respectful, professional, fair, and really high quality work. Josh removed 6 trees from our front yard in one day (1 that had died and 5 that were growing into our home's foundation). At least 2 of those trees were not easy work, as they were leaning back over our roof and required careful attention and expertise to get them down without damaging our roof. Josh and his team got all 6 trees down without issue, and removed all of the branches and debris, and left any wood we asked to keep for firewood. We also had 3 young fruit trees in our yard very close to the large trees being removed, and Josh and his crew were very mindful to work around them. Really grateful for the work done by North Idaho Tree works. Can't recommend them enough, and we will definitely call them again for any trimming or tree work in the future. Thanks again Josh!"

"We have had several projects completed by Savage Landscape and Home Repair, including a 60? foot fence, a small block wall, and some paver work. In addition we had 200? feet of fence with a custom built gate installed at another property. The staff was amazing to work with, good communication, upfront quotes and timely completion. 10/10 would hire again."

"It has been a long time since I went into a home project with minimum expectations and was thoroughly impressed beyond any of my possible expectations. I wanted 4 big trees removed. Tyler pointed out there were other trees that definitely needed to be removed. He didn't hesitate, he did much of his own work, but also had appropriate staff and equipment when needed. He is very knowledgeable, efficient and definitely hard working. Even my neighbor hired him to remove a very large leaning pine tree. I would highly recommend Tree Me Kindly."

"K2 Landscaping has been a great help to me in improving my property. Initially it was a levelling and installation of a paver walk-way in my back yard. The following summer, I decided to xeriscape my large front yard in order to use less water and still have a beautiful property. They were able to help me bring my ideas to reality. They offered creative suggestions regarding materials and specific plants that would work in the various areas of my yard. Several of my neighbors watched the transformation and are inspired to try something similar. The K2 crew is friendly, helpful, and expert at what they do. I can highly recommend them."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

You can shape a cherry tree by trimming vertical branches, dense branches, and intersecting branches. Your personal aesthetic comes into play, as well. If you want to simply thin and shape the tree, you can get away with trimming the aforementioned parts of your cherry tree. If you want to shorten branches, however, consider thinning cuts, which alter the length of the branches while encouraging light penetration, new buds and shoots, and a structurally-sound shape.

If it’s only a smaller branch that has died and you’re keeping an eye on the tree, it’s probably nothing to worry about. But if other nearby branches start dying off as well, or a very large branch dies, then you likely have a bigger problem. It’s time to watch for diseases and other problems and possibly get professional guidance on how to proceed.

It takes anywhere from three to seven years for a stump to decompose on its own. This timeframe can depend on the kind of tree and your climate. The lower to the ground the stump is, the faster it rots. If you kill a tree stump with salt, boiling water, herbicide, light deprivation, or burning, the tree stump decomposes faster. 

Generally, if your neighbor’s tree hangs over your yard, you can legally trim overhanging branches. Keep in mind that you cannot cross your property line to cut the trees, and if you damage the tree by trimming it, your neighbor could sue you. Depending on the type of tree and value, this could mean dishing out two to three times the value of the tree.

It’s worth noting that the specifics of this type of tree maintenance and the guidelines around it may vary by location. Do your research and, most importantly, consult with your neighbor.

If you’re wondering why tree trunks are painted white in your area, it’s usually to prevent sunscald, a condition where extreme shifts in temperature can cause tree bark to split. Fruit trees are especially vulnerable to sunscald, so this treatment is worth considering if it’s something that affects your trees.
