"Fernandez Tree Care was amazing to work with. I had a large White Pine in my back yard that needed some help. I initially wanted to just trim the tree but on closer inspection and conversation we decided it was best to remove the tree due to the health and age of the tree. Humberto (super nice guy) is a certified Arborist and while speaking through all of our options he was very informative and understanding that I was having a hard time deciding to remove the tree (he should also be a licensed therapist for how indecisive I was) but, as mentioned above, due to health and age of the tree, trimming it was only a band-aid for future issues. Day of, the crew was very friendly, professional, and quick. An 8 hour job only took about 5 hours and they helped with a few other tree/stump issues around the property because they had the equipment there. They did not have to do this but it was no trouble for Humberto and his team. They also took great care in cleaning up in both my yard and my neighbors yard where debris fell. Neighbors have already asked for the recommendation because they were so professional. All this at a very reasonable price too. I look forward to working with Fernandez Tree Care again very soon to get a new tree set up in our yard and would absolutely recommend this team to anyone needing help with their trees, trimming, fertilizing, or removing."

"Prime tree care came in on business! With the utmost of care and professionalism, they removed what could’ve been a 140 tall very old silver maple. The gentleman were very respectful and neat. Removing the limbs one by one with precision dropping the cut limbs into my yard without hitting the garage and without dropping debris in my neighbors yard. I highly recommend Prime Tree Care Inc, for tree removal and tree trimming."

"The team was very responsive in assisting the removal of a silver maple in my back yard. Came out and quoted the opportunity within a couple days of engaging them on the Home Advisor platform. After moving forward with the bid, the continued to provide communication even through a couple reschedules due to weather. The completion of the project was smooth and they left the back yard in great shape. Iâ d recommend All Service Calls to my friends and family members."

"Ramos Tree service did a fabulous ? job. His prices were reasonable. They cleaned up after themselves and came back the next day as promised to remove the stump. The only thing I didn't like is we agreed on the work being done at 3 pm, and they showed up at 8 am.I had to leave them at my home because I had something else to do. Other than that, they were fantastic, and I will use again and / or recommend them."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

If you aren’t sure what you’re doing, be very careful when cutting mature tree roots (roots larger than 2 inches). Root cutting and pruning can affect both a tree’s stability and its ability to nourish itself. Issues during root cutting can result in damage or injury. 

It’s recommended you call in a pro to help, unless it’s a very small tree and you aren’t worried about the prospect of losing the tree.

Since overwatering can harm mature trees just as much as a lack of water, it’s important to know the signs of an overwatered tree. If your tree’s leaves are yellowing, wilting, or dropping leaves, it’s likely that you’re overwatering. Other common signs include rotting, fungi, soggy soil, soft or peeling bark, falling leaves, and brittle roots. 

If you realize that you’ve been overwatering your mature tree, stop watering and give the soil time to dry out. Then moving forward, increase time between watering sessions. 

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.

Yes, cutting a tree's roots can cause it to fall, particularly if major support roots are severed. In extreme cases, trimming roots can affect the tree's structure and stability. Many crucial roots are located just below the soil's surface. If you make severe cuts to roots more than 2 inches in diameter, you risk impacting the tree's water flow and its ability to withstand severe winds or storms. Even cutting roots less than half an inch in diameter under or outside the tree's canopy can cut off its water supply, causing it to decline, die, and eventually topple.

Yes, you can hire professionals to move a tree. Arborists and tree transplanting companies specialize in this type of work and use equipment like hydraulic tree spades to safely extract and relocate trees with their root balls intact. Since tree moving is a complex process, especially for larger trees, it’s best left to experts who understand how to protect the tree’s health and ensure the safety of everyone involved.
