"Requesting a quote from and then hiring Illinois Tree Service was quick and easy. Their quote was the same as another large operation in town, but they didn't need to bring massive equipment into the yard as the other company had in the past. A large crew of men worked safely and efficiently for about six to seven hours to remove both old cottonwoods and grind their stumps. They cleaned up beautifully as they worked and left the yard free of sticks and branches. I would highly recommend them."

"If Angi provided 6-star rating for top tree removal service, Elite seamless gutter of Spring Valley, Il would get it from this East area resident. How about taking down two 80-plus foot, very challenging backyard trees, including stamp removal, and meticulous clean up in five hours, finishing well after sunset? the six-man crew were as good as you can get, and they came at a very acceptable cost. One neighbor watched their work and hired them for his project. Equipment was top-notched. Look no further."

"Called to have 5 trees removed and the stumps ground. They arrived 4 days later, discussed what was to be done, gave me an acceptable quote, and performed the service to perfection. The trees were surrounded by raised Uniblock flowerbed walls, which were all preserved without any damage and stumps ground deep enough to plant a new tree in the same hole. Ruts were filled and debris was raked, and if it wasn't for the small wood chips I wouldn't have realized there were trees there... A+ with many referrals coming from me."

"Needed to have 5 trees cut down that were very close to a fence. Geraldo showed up, evaluated the job, explained how the job would be completed, and presented a quote for the work. The team showed up on the expected date and expertly cut down the trees as planned with no damage to the fence."

"He told me what time he was coming and came right on the dot.  He knew exactly what kind of tree I have and was very knowledgeable about when to cut it and what can happen if I cut it too early.  I had had a power outage in my garage and I inquired whether the tree roots could be causing some electrical issues.  He told me he didn't know, but the best part was that he spent 45 extra minutes investigating the garage and told me EXACTLY what to tell the electrician when I have them come out.  When the electrician came, I told him what Steve Briggs told me and he went to the exact spot and we discovered that Steve was exactly right!  Before Steve left, he asked if there was anything else that he could do to help me.  I had another tree service provider come out to give me an estimate and it was $150 more expensive than Briggs Tree Service.  When I asked him about what Steve told me about the timing of the tree cutting and what can befall the tree, he told me that now was as good a time as ever to cut the tree down and he didn't go into any detail.  After he left, I did some more investigation about what Steve told me about the ash and the virus that can kill my tree if I cut it right now and found out that Steve was EXACTLY right!  He is truly an expert arborist and can be trusted!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Transporting a fully-grown tree requires heavy equipment, typically specialized for the task. A tree spade is a truck-mounted tool that removes the tree from the ground in one location, transports it, and places it in a new hole in a new location. A combination of mechanized shovels and lifts is necessary to move very large trees, and the exact tools often depend on location and the surrounding area.

A serrated knife will work for cutting off small palm tree fronds, about 1 inch in diameter. For larger fronds, you will need pruning shears. You may also use a pruning saw, and if your palm tree is especially tall, an extended pole saw can help you reach the brown fronds around the trunk.

You can start your search for a reputable arborist online by looking for professionals who hold the proper licensing and are fully insured. Next, read through some online reviews to see what kind of service the expert brings to the table, and confirm that they don’t have a history of complaints with the Better Business Bureau. Finally, you can ask the professional for a list of references and then call them to ask questions about the service, professionalism, value, and more that the expert brings to the table.

For safety reasons, leaning trees are best removed by a professional, as they may often tear away from the hinge, causing you to lose control over where the tree falls. If you choose to cut down a tree leaning slightly, avoid cutting off root protrusions before you start. Make your hinge a little longer than usual by cutting it deeper (up to 30% of the diameter) and applying a wedge into the felling cut on the side the tree is leaning. Stand away from the direction the tree leans while making your felling cut.

In most ways, palm trees are incredibly low-maintenance. They don’t need a ton of water—which is why they’re so beloved in desert regions—and they basically prune themselves. But they do need an ample supply of sunlight and to be in soil that will allow for proper drainage so that their roots don’t become waterlogged and at risk of developing illnesses.

If the plant begins to wilt, develop spots, or change color, these could all be signs that your palm tree has a disease. But a few basic treatments, like pruning and applying fungicide, will usually be more than enough to return it to perfect health.
