"Juan isn't just a person with a team who can remove large trees with efficiency; he is an arborist who really has vision of what can be done with a property. I recommend him not only for tree removal but for planting and landscape work. And the value that you get for the price is just great."

"Humberto and his crew were amazing! If I could give them more than five stars, I absolutely would. He came out the very same day to provide a quote for trimming three trees. His price was better than any of the other estimates I received, and he started the job right on time. The entire project was completed in just one day, and the quality of the work exceeded my expectations. I was so impressed that I’ll definitely be hiring Humberto again this spring to clean up my backyard and do more tree trimming. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for reliable, professional, and reasonably priced tree service!"

"I have absolutely nothing to complain about here! These guys were amazing. The quote process was simple and reasonable. The work they did was fast and complete. They even raked the area they were chipping in and collected some of the other junk wood I asked them to take. Super nice and hard workers. I will keep them in mind for any and all future work I need done!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

While there is a lot of debate about whether boiling water is strong enough to kill tree roots, it is not best to remove the roots from large, old trees. You may be able to weaken young roots enough to remove them manually, but boiling water will likely not do the trick for large root systems.

Yes, burning wood with Dutch elm disease is a safer way to dispose of it than, say, tossing it in with the rest of your yard waste, which could potentially allow it to spread to healthy trees. But it’s always a good idea to check with your local government to make sure you’re complying with any ordinances about removing diseased trees as well as burning brush piles.

If you want to take your tree-planting hobby beyond your outdoor space, here are a few great ways to do it:

  • Encourage your neighbors to participate in the Arbor Day Foundation’s Tree City USA program, which has a four-step framework that helps communities grow and maintain their own tree cover.

  • Support businesses that plant trees. 

  • Lobby your local government to plant more trees around your community.

  • Donate to a tree-planting charity.

You can hire a professional arborist or tree removal service to cut down a tree to ensure safety, prevent property damage, and comply with all the local regulations. It’s highly advisable to always hire a professional, as tree removal can be extremely dangerous, especially for large or damaged trees. Certified arborists or tree removal experts have the proper equipment, training, and insurance to do the job safely and efficiently. They can also handle cleanup, stump removal, and obtaining the necessary permits.

Yes, it’s okay to trim low branches on a tree, also known as limbing up or raising the crown. Essentially, you’ll trim the lower third of the tree (trunk) and leave the upper two-thirds of the tree (crown). Arborists recommend trimming 20% of a tree’s leaves per season for two to three seasons. Trimming low branches allows light to flow through the tree, increasing circulation and making the tree stronger and healthier.
