"10/10. Incredible quality and turnaround time. Michael from AAA Arborist came for an estimate the same day of contact and got the job done the next morning. We just moved to a new home and discovered an undisclosed squirrel next in our attic. Pest control identified the trees as the main thoroughfare of the squirrels. Michael recognized our emergency and took immediate action. There's a different tree company well reviewed in Angie's List that I wasted 2 weeks on prior and would avoid. I called Rivera 3-5 times. left VMs. Spoke w/ admin. They didn't provide me with the estimate as promised, until i followed up 1-2 times. Then when it finally came to schedule, they were a week out. I was never given an opportunity to speak with the estimator. If you're like me and looking up a tree trimmer on Angie's list, just call AAA Arborist 1st."

"Juan Martinez of Progressive Tree Service initially came out to my home to evaluate what work I would need as this stump was very large in diameter, likely contained parts of an old fence that the tree had grown around, and was in a difficult location for access. He was prompt, very pleasant, offered good, practical advice for how the work could be done and gave me a very reasonable quote for the job.  He arrived with a colleague on the day scheduled, on time, and did a fantastic job removing this stump.  You would never know it was there. They did a very good job of cleaning up the work area when they were done and were very pleasant and easy to work with. I have already requested that they come back in the spring to maintain and spray a couple of trees in my yard.  I would, without hesitation, recommend Progressive Tree Service to anyone. Juan is a certified arborist and was very knowledgable about the other trees and plantings in my yard as well."

"BTR responded within a few minutes of my request. They arrived as stated to bbn give their quote. The tree was spit down the center of the trunk all the way to fairly close to the ground. They offered to strap it together to hold it so that it didn't fall on the neighbor's house and deck. My husband didn't see the need. They arrived the next day as stated and went to work. They also ground remaining tree roots from a locust tree removed several years ago which continued to send up new growth. They were excellent at protecting the neighbor's property and ours. They did an excellent job of grinding the stump of the tree they removed. They also did an excellent job of finding and grinding the locust tree roots that were problematic. The person who stayed to do the grinding also did cleanup. He did an excellent clesnup. There was a large pile of remaining woodchips. He offered me the removed maple tree woodchips which i accepted and have used for mulch. These guys were excellent start to finish as opposed to the company i used several years ago who left tree roots from three trees that had to be removed. This company had the crew and equipment to expertly and efficiently handle the job. They were professional and courteous. I am glad we used Angi this time instead of friend referral. I would highly recommend BTR!"

"Very professional, prompt and reasonably priced. I was 100% pleased and I highly recommend them! My trees were very mature and hadn't been trimmed in many years. Now they are beautiful and the curb appeal has been enhanced!"

"After spending a lot of time trying to take out 12" wide yew shrub stumps, I decided to investigate having the job done with a chipper. I compared doing it myself with a rented chipper and having it done by a professional. Looked at rental places and on Angi, Thumbtack, and Yelp. Reviewed the suggested contractors and sent a request, with pictures, through the lead generation companies. Hugh, from Razorback Stump Removal, was the first to reach out to me. Excellent rating and price. Received a similar bid and three others at double the price. Texted Hugh that night and he came before noon the next day. The stumps were out in less than half an hour and I could only kick myself for all the time I had wasted trying to do it myself. Hugh is polite, personable, efficient and reasonable. Highly recommend Razorback."

"Very polite, direct, no-nonsense workers. They came to my house and provided a very reasonable quote within 10 minutes, and got the work done the very next morning. Brought all the equipment needed, stumped the trees removed, and disposed of everything. They even picked up and removed stray branches in the nearby area. I will definitely hire again."

"I had a great overall experience. From the quote to the follow up after the service was done. The owner took time to educate me and answer my questions. I certainly value patient and kind professional! My front bad back yard is ready for winter. I am looking forward to the spring clean up now. Now I have a team on who I can count."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Poison oak is similar to poison ivy in that it's in the same family of plants. Poison oak is identifiable by its rounded-off leaves and hairy leaf texture. Tree-climbing varieties live primarily in western states while low-growing poison oak bushes occupy the eastern states. Treat poison oak like poison ivy to get rid of it permanently.

There are a few differences between tree guying and tree staking. Tree guying requires anchor stakes that are shorter and stronger than regular stakes and are driven deeper into the ground at an angle away from the tree. Tree staking uses longer stakes that are set parallel to the tree and are used for smaller trees. Consult a local tree professional to determine which method is best for your tree.

Absolutely. These steps are significantly easier, too, especially when it comes to preserving the root ball and moving the palm tree. However, you will want to make sure the tree has plenty of fertilizer to establish itself and start growing. Supports may also be more important, as it can take extra time for a potted palm to spread out its roots. If you are transferring a palm to another pot, you’ll want to move up a size or two to a larger pot. Make sure the pot has excellent drainage to keep the palm from getting waterlogged.

You can use herbicides to prevent roots from growing without killing the tree itself, however they must be used with caution. Systemic herbicides are absorbed by the root and can kill off problematic roots. However, herbicides can sometimes negatively impact nearby plants, so the solution is best used sparingly.

Unfortunately, most of the time you’re out of luck if a neighbor’s tree blocks your view. You don’t have a right to a view, so if you have a tree that’s near the property line but on your neighbor’s property, you can’t cut it to be able to take in a majestic mountain or a beautiful sunrise. In some communities, however, there are ordinances protecting scenic views. Checking into your local laws can help you determine your rights in this situation.
