"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."

"I contracted AMG Tree Service to remove 6 trees from my backyard. From the moment he responded to me through the end of the project, Guillermo was a total pro. Not only did Guillermo and his crew do a great job removing the trees (two were large and hung into my neighbors yard) and cleaning-up the area, but I really appreciated the fact that his communication was great and he was punctual...he is a man of his word, which seems to be a rarity with other contractors there days. Further, his pricing is very fair and reasonable. I highly recommend AMG Tree Service."

"Jorge did a fantastic job on my trees. It was a big job. His communication and follow thru were both excellent. Hard worker and went the extra mile on trimming the trees. He arrive early and was there all day until the job was done and cleaned up. Once he left everything was back in its place and yard was spotless. I highly recommend Cedar V. Best value you find."

"Very pleased. They contacted me within an hour of my request. After I decided on Jose Trees, Inc., they told me they could come on that Tuesday. And I was happy to say they showed up Tuesday morning, right on time. They removed 4 very tall trees and trimmed up the trees in my back yard. When completed with the work they asked if I would check their work to make sure I was happy. I was happy, they even cleaned up all branches and leaves. Don't hesitate giving these guys the job. s"

"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!"

"Hugh did a great job grinding the buried roots of my already cut down Locust tree. He had to work in a small space and get many roots. He is a listener, hard worker, and thorough."

"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."

"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."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Since each tree is different, it’s impossible to say how long a dead tree can remain on your property. While it could be days, months, or even years, it’s highly likely that, at some point, the tree will fall. In the meantime, dying or dead trees can become a haven for pests, so it’s best to have them removed sooner rather than later.

The best tool to cut trees is a chain saw. You can adjust your chain saw to the correct size based on the size of the branches, offering you the fastest and cleanest cut for medium- to large-sized trees. Depending on the type of chainsaw you use, you can cut through larger trees than you would with a more manual tool like an ax.

There are several signs that may indicate a tree needs to be cut down. These include visible damage to the trunk or branches, a hollow trunk, extensive storm damage, or a significant lean to one side. Other warning signs are pest infestations or the tree growing too close to a house, power lines, or other structures. It is best to hire a professional arborist to inspect the tree, as they can determine if it can be saved or if removal is necessary.

A few signs a tree may be dead is if the leaves are dead and there are no signs of new blooms. You can also perform a scratch test on some of the branches to check the condition of the cambium layer beneath the bark.

If it is green, it is still alive, but if several are dry, brittle, and brown, the tree may be dying or dead. Always consult an arborist before assuming your tree is dead because you may be able to save it.

Pruning trees is important for several reasons. It improves tree health and strength by removing dead, diseased, or unwanted branches, which in turn encourages new growth and can help treat disease. For fruit trees, proper pruning can lead to a larger and better-quality harvest. Pruning also enhances safety by removing weak limbs that could break and fall, potentially causing injury or property damage, especially during storms. Beyond these functional benefits, pruning can also improve a tree's appearance. To ensure pruning is done correctly for the tree's long-term health, consider hiring a professional.
