"The guys got here on time and took care of the work. They took down my tree piece by piece till it was gone and then hauled it all away. They even through in trimming my bushes for free. Their Bob Cat left some tracks in the yard and they came back and fixed it. Raked and reseeded it. I would highly recommend their business for my neighbors and friends. They did a great job."

"Matt from Illinois Tree was able to stop out quickly and provide an on-the-spot & fair quote for removing an overgrown locust tree too close to my house. He was straight-forward and said that it would be three weeks before they could get to my job. Fortunately, with favorable weather, he was able to work me in sooner and get the tree cut within a week of setting up the job. The crew did a good job of cleaning up the yard and the deck of any excess debris. Everything went according to plan and they will be my first call for future tree service needs."

"Horjes and Joe did a fantastic job. They were skilled and careful with an eye for appropriate shapes and sizes for each tree trimmed. Not to be confused with an Alberquer New Mexico firm named with almost the same name on Angi. My husband and I were pleased with their curtesy, ability to clean up everything and to work diligently and safely. We want them to come back again in th late fall to work on trimming our very large oak tree."

"The team was very punctual and thorough throughout the tree removal and tree trimming process. While they were working on the project I added some additional requests which they gladly took care of at a minimal cost. The team worked hard, took no breaks, and were very professional. I would strongly recommend them, and plan to continue working with them for other tree and landscaping projects."

"I had a quote on Thursday and when I talked to them on Monday, they were out quickly to trim the trees and remove three bushes. They cleaned up nicely after the work. I'd hire them again without a question!"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

You may need permission to take a tree down. Check with your local ordinances about rules regarding tree removal and to gain any necessary permits. Check with your local ordinances or the fire department if you plan to burn the stump. Make sure you have all the steps in place before removing the tree, or contact a local tree removal service.

There are a few differences between tree guying and tree staking. Tree guying requires anchor stakes that are shorter and stronger than regular stakes and are driven deeper into the ground at an angle away from the tree. Tree staking uses longer stakes that are set parallel to the tree and are used for smaller trees. Consult a local tree professional to determine which method is best for your tree.

Yes, it can be good to remove dead branches from trees. Dead branches can lead to rot in other areas of the tree. They can also cause damage if they fall on a house, shed, fence, car, pool, or other structure or property. However, it’s important that dead branch removal is done safely. If the branch is high in a tree or requires a lift or ladder to access, consider calling a professional tree removal company, as they will have the experience and equipment to do the job safely.

Pruning can impact cold hardiness—but it’s less about the exact temperature and more about temperature variation. Generally, you don’t want to prune trees when there’s a risk of temperatures suddenly dropping from 50 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit to 0 degrees Fahrenheit or below. A tree is most sensitive until 48 hours after it’s pruned.

Trees naturally want to grow upward, so one may straighten all by itself, though this only comes into play when a tree is leaning just a small amount. For trees growing into an awkward position or those leaning heavily in one direction, the above steps are necessary to ensure the tree gets back on the right path. This also holds true for trees planted in a spot with unstable soil.
