"i'm a repeat customer (That should tell you a lot). Small job ot trimming a decorative tree and raising a branch on a large locust in the back yard. My neighbor was so impressed that she requested help and Jose helped her out on the spot! If you need someone that REALLY understands how to treat a tree and you, as a client, look no further."

"The owner Michael came out and did a complete walk-through of my property with me. He demonstrated exceptional knowledge on every type of tree, identifying health concerns and different illnesses present in our crab trees and our giant blue spruce trees. After meeting with me and my wife, we new immediately that AAA Arborist would make the best decisions on how to address our tree health and maintenance needs. I obtained three separate quotes and AAA Arborists' detail was thorough and pricing was very competetive, so my choice was very easy to make. On the day of my service, Michael personally supervised his crew. The work was carefully executed and the attention to detail was amazing. Michael also followed up with me a week later to ensure we were satisfied. I am so pleased with the service and the results. We will be using them as our regular tree service from now on!"

"They are a family business with a wonderful work ethic. They took two large trees down, chipped the branches, cut the trunk to log-length for me and did a thorough clean-up when finished. Would highly recommended Ace Tree Service for you needs."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

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.

In most cases, your neighbor is responsible for roots from their tree that cause damage to your property. If your pavement, the foundation of your home, or a fence is damaged by roots from a neighbor’s tree, you likely will have legal recourse for financial relief. While it’s better to notify your neighbor of any problems you notice as soon as they arise to avoid costly damage, there are some instances where filing a civil suit is your only recourse. Your homeowner’s insurance company might wish to do so on your behalf if you file a claim.

All of the tree root removal methods mentioned above are effective on any kind of root, whether it’s still growing or simply needs a gentle nudge to finish decomposing. The only difference is that larger roots tend to be harder to remove and may require multiple chemical treatments as well as manual labor to eradicate.

Permits are often required for large tree removals, especially in urban areas or for protected species, ensuring regulation compliance and neighbor safety.

A dead tree should always be cut down, because it could fall and cause injuries or damage, and it can also attract insects like carpenter ants. A tree that’s diseased beyond repair should also be cut down, but it’s not always easy for a homeowner to tell. Signs of disease include dying branches, a hollow trunk, leaning, and discolored or missing leaves, but your best bet is to hire a local arborist who can evaluate the tree and tell you if it can be saved or should be cut down.
