"Umberto and his crew did a great and efficient job taking down and chipping two large trees in my yard. They fulfilled my special requests, replaced the fences they had to take down, and were very careful not to disturb my garden beds. Umberto is a certified arborist, yet charged me the same price I was quoted by other companies that were just general landscapers. He was friendly, accommodating, and easy to work with. Highly recommended."

"This was a fantastic company! They did a great job in a timely manner. I was impressed by the care taken by the workers to be sure nothing was damaged when trees were cut and trimmed. They took away the cut branches and even used a leaf blower to finish up. The owner was friendly and concerned to be sure everything was properly taken care of. The cost was very good too. I'm very impressed and will be using their services again for my upcoming landscaping work. I highly recommend them!"

"Very responsive both for initial visit and follow-up work. They trimmed several tall hornbeam trees and a redbud, and removed older dying bushes including stump grinding. They left the area clean. Price was reasonable. Overall great experience. I will definitely call them with future landscaping needs."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Your local government is usually in charge of pruning trees on public property, and the power company is responsible for trees near power lines (even if they’re on your property). Whether or not they top these trees depends on their approach to pruning. You won’t be able to do much to control this, but you can contact them to find out more about their pruning process.

Yes, forestry mulching can grind stumps, but the level of effectiveness depends on the equipment used. Drum mulchers can break down smaller stumps, but larger or deep-rooted stumps may require a dedicated stump grinder for complete removal. If full stump removal is necessary for replanting or construction, additional excavation may be needed. Always check with your forestry mulching provider to confirm whether they offer stump grinding and if their equipment is suitable for your specific needs.

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

If you’re wondering whether you can plant a tree where the stump was removed, know that the soil conditions won’t be ideal, so you should avoid it. The soil beneath the previous tree will likely be depleted of nutrients, plus there may be roots left behind that will seriously hinder the growth of a new tree. Also, if you use salt or other chemical solutions to kill the stump, these can linger in the soil for months or even years and prevent healthy growth. It’s best to choose a different spot that’s at least three feet away for a new tree, or wait at least a year and thoroughly amend the soil before you plant.

The average lifespan of an oak tree is 100 to 300 years, so long as it isn’t impacted by diseases like sudden oak death. Some species will last shorter or longer, depending on where you live.
