"Great job. Victor and Gabriela were extremely friendly and understanding to our needs. Large tree close to the house in the backyard. The 3 person crew had experience to drop all the limbs safely. Price was competitive for a maple with 3 large spires At 60 plus feet tall the 7 hour completion was impressive. Logging truck showed the same day and removed all the trunk pieces during stump grinding and clean up. Sad to see the big old girl go, but she took a serious lightening strike and held her own until it was time..."

"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."

"I live in the same neighborhood as Mike and have used him several times over the years for tree trimming and snow removal. He just recently removed some branches that had come down from a recent ice storm. He is always prompt, and professionally gives a fair price, keeps you informed about any changes, and shows up when promised. I highly recommend him."

"Wonderful crew. They did an awesome job of cleaning up all the dead limbs from two 30-40 foot trees and hauled away everything. They then mulched the area under the trees per request and edged the entire area. I highly recommend them."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It can be bad to leave a dead stump in the ground. A stump becomes a hefty piece of dead wood in time and eventually (especially with the help of rain) starts to rot. That makes it a locus point for diseases and pesky insects, as well as a bit of an eyesore. It’s best to remove a tree stump completely before it starts to decay, especially before it starts to fall apart. If the tree was removed because of disease, it’s even more important to fully remove the stump if possible.

The best plan of action for an unhealthy or unsafe tree will depend on its condition. An arborist can recommend whether trimming or removal is the right call for your tree. Preventive tree trimming can keep trees safe and healthy, so make regular tree trimming a part of your yard maintenance plan.

The best time to prune Japanese flowering cherry trees depends on where you live and the type of flowering cherry tree. Some trees benefit from being pruned toward the end of winter or early spring, after the last freeze. Meanwhile, other trees do well after blooming, in late spring or early summer. Avoid pruning your flowering cherry tree in the early winter, as this encourages open wounds that can lead to infections or infestations. 

Generally speaking, you’ll want to avoid flush cuts, which are cuts made as extremely close to the trunk or main branch. These cuts can weaken your tree, lower its natural defense mechanisms, and even cause decay. You’ll also want to avoid tree topping, which is the total removal of the leader and upper main branches of a tree. 

Most pros will advise against either of these methods, which is why hiring a pro is often the best choice when it comes to tree trimming.

Local tree removal prices range from $200 to $2,000 overall, but vary depending on:

  • Local cost of labor and supplies

  • Accessibility of the tree

  • Local laws regarding who is allowed to remove the tree

  • The species of the tree (softer woods are often easier to remove)

  • Local seasonal discounts for the off-season
