"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!"

"This was an emergency project where a branch of our tree fell on neighbors yard on Friday evening. Ralph showed up on Saturday to provide estimate and on Sunday he showed up to clear that branch. The following week the crew removed, chipped, and hauled away the three trees that we decided had to go. All for a price cheaper than competitors. Highly recommended!"

"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!"

"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

Generally, you’ll want to avoid pruning more than 25% of the tree’s canopy at one time. While pruning your tree is important, it’s possible to do it too often or to go too far. Again, this is why hiring a tree trimming pro to do the work is wise. However, if you do decide to DIY, going slow and trimming gradually is the name of the game.

No, homeowners insurance typically does not cover the cost of removing a dead, sick, or rotting tree that is still standing. Insurance is designed to protect against sudden and unexpected accidents, whereas a tree dying or rotting over time is considered a maintenance issue. Coverage usually only applies after a tree has fallen and caused damage to your property.

You may need permission to take a tree down. Check with your local ordinances about rules regarding tree removal and to gain any necessary permits. Check with your local ordinances or the fire department if you plan to burn the stump. Make sure you have all the steps in place before removing the tree, or contact a local tree removal service.

A tree can split because of high winds, a change in temperature, or from an infestation or tree disease. All of these factors can overlap, making a single cause difficult to pinpoint. While winter storms are some of the most common causes for a tree to split, it can also happen because of termites or rot.

Generally speaking, you’ll want to avoid flush cuts, which are cuts made as extremely close to the trunk or main branch. These cuts can weaken your tree, lower its natural defense mechanisms, and even cause decay. You’ll also want to avoid tree topping, which is the total removal of the leader and upper main branches of a tree. 

Most pros will advise against either of these methods, which is why hiring a pro is often the best choice when it comes to tree trimming.
