"My new home had four 85 ft tall trees branching over top of my entire house. I called the local tree experts for a quote; due to the closure of the Il hwy 17 Lacon bridge and as a non-commercial job I could not get a quote to remove the trees until I called AJC home services. I had no idea what type of service to expect. Ben, of AJC, quoted the job & promptly arrived on site. During the two days the team worked in high humidity 90° heat I was informed and consulted throughout the process by the most courteous crew. The trees were carefully removed and placed on the ground piece by piece. Nothing was damaged. They used mats under the boom truck to protect my lawn and they used a leaf blower to remove tihe sawdust from the roof of my house when done. Excellent five-star, world-class work. Iâ d recommend AJC to anyone, everyone."

"They had the whole tree taken down within the afternoon. The tree was surrounded by power lines,which no other tree service could handle with the equipment they had. They pulled out the remaining roots that would've damaged our newly paved driveway . We also were very satisfied with their landscaping . Highly recommended! They will be the first to call if we need any work done."

"Right Way Tree and Outdoor Services does a fantastic job. I had a pretty large branch come down in our back yard and their crew came out and were very professional. They did great job of getting the branch removed and cleaning up afterwards. You can’t even tell that a massive tree branch had fallen down by the time they were done. If I could give six stars I would. 10/10 highly recommend."

"Contacted Angie and the Tree Surgeon was the only provider listed. The 2 trees are located in my in my neighbor's yard and we agreed to share the cost of $4,500 because we both share the issues of the trees. We also agreed that the trees did not need to be cut to the ground. The crew was here 11/14 and became apparent the equipment brought was not sufficient to safely remove 1 tree. The provider stated he needed a tree climber to get to taller limbs. The crew was back on 11/16 but there were issues that day and didn't finish with 1 tree. They returned on 11/20 and were able to complete the job of one tree and promised to return to complete the 2nd tree but there has been no further contact with provider since then. Each day they were here, the crew did clean up branches and limbs and those were removed by provider."

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

Licensing requirements for arborists, also known as tree surgeons, vary by state and municipality. Many areas require a license, which often involves specialized education and experience. Even if not mandated, it's wise to hire a licensed professional as they tend to have more experience. Beyond licensing, look for certifications from organizations like the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) or the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA), as this indicates a higher level of expertise. Certified arborists must typically pass a comprehensive exam. Always confirm that the arborist has a business license and is fully insured to protect yourself from liability. Seeking positive recommendations from local homeowners is also a good step in finding a qualified professional.

Tree experts don’t advise against digging through tree roots, but instead encourage caution and consultation with a local arborist to make sure you don’t damage the tree’s structure or interrupt its water or nutrient intake. An arborist can recommend specific practices when digging and help prune the roots or dig a trench for utilities with a tool that can remove soil without touching the tree’s roots.

Generally, avoid trimming trees in the summer (with the exception of pruning fruit trees as needed). Trees use a lot of energy in the summer, most of which is relegated to new growth. If you chop it too early, you could stunt the next season's growth. Again, when in doubt, do some research based on the specific tree type.

Yes, carefully prune back dead branches—don’t wait for pruning season. This helps keep your maple tree healthy and also helps prevent large branches from falling unexpectedly. Don’t seal the cut branch—trees can naturally take care of these wounds—but be sure to remove any source of fungus or pest infestation to help save the tree.

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.
