"When I contacted them, they came out and looked at the tree that we wanted to be topped off, because some limbs at the top were ready to be trimmed back for the winter... Then, he gave us a quote and said he'd call back... He did call back, showed up when he said he would, had some helpers with him, and did a great job topping the tree for us, all the limbs and branches were cut and he had someone picking and raking them all up. He also treated the cut branches so the winter freezing/weather wouldn't hurt the tree grove. Now that it's spring we are getting little sprouts out of the branches, and we weren't sure they would, so we are happy with his work and we are pleased with him!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Tree roots are hearty and complex systems, so they don’t die immediately after the rest of the tree is removed. If you leave the root system in place, it takes anywhere from two to seven years for it to run out of nutrients. It is worth noting, however, that the roots stop growing and expanding after cutting down the rest of the tree.

Planting a palm tree close to your home can provide shade while elevating the beauty of your yard. However, there are a few safety concerns to consider before doing so. You’ll want to opt for a smaller tree with a non-invasive root system. Select a species that won’t grow too tall and choose a planting location that won’t damage your home.

Ensures complete removal and mitigates risks of underground root damage.

You can start your search for a reputable arborist online by looking for professionals who hold the proper licensing and are fully insured. Next, read through some online reviews to see what kind of service the expert brings to the table, and confirm that they don’t have a history of complaints with the Better Business Bureau. Finally, you can ask the professional for a list of references and then call them to ask questions about the service, professionalism, value, and more that the expert brings to the table.

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.
