"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."

"The owner, Humberto, was hands-on and present throughout the entire project: 3 trees and 3 stumps removed, extensive trimming of river birch and crimson maple. He is a very competent, knowledgeable, and professional arborist. I feel he gave me an education in tree care. His crew is also very effecient and hard-working, cleaning up everything. At a very reasonable price. In fact, he performed almost twice the amount of work at the same price quoted by other companies. He was very accommodating, very flexible. He will be doing all my tree trimming and removal in the future. Highly Recommended."

"This is probably the best tree service I have ever had in 40 Years of Living in this house! Mr. Vasquez and his amazing team climbed our 70 foot tall trees to the top, and carefully examined every single limb and branch or overall specimen beauty, tree health, balance, and future growth, before they even made one cut. They cleaned, hauled, and chopped up the debris so efficiently. It was all done professionally.....beautifully,... and now we have openness, healthy fruit trees, and beautiful property hill and forest behind our house that now allows sky and lets in light and air! I will absolutely use them again next year and anytime for projects that we have concerning our trees! The Best of the Best."

"Efrain came out on 10/17/23 and gave me a very reasonable quote to cut down 2 20 foot arborvitae trees and trim one tree. The team came out the next day and took care of it in a very short time. The team did a great job and cleaned up afterwards. I will definitely recommend them and use them on future jobs."

"The men worked hard and quickly and had all the necessary equipment did a great job except we’re not able to get out the entire stump because of some electrical lines buried in the area. Very inexpensive and we’re less than half of other quotes. The only issue might have been that they could have cleaned up the wood chips better but this is relatively minor. I give them an extremely high recommendation!"

"ALL SERVICE CALLS exceeded our expectations & provided excellent & prompt work at our home. From the timely, prompt & fair estimate to setting an appointment within 2 days, we were pleased with their labor. The team arrived on Thursday early & completed the work of clearing our trees & overgrowth within 4 hours. They also hauled away the debris. I plan to hire them again as for a few other projects as trees/landscaping is just one aspect of what they do. SIMPLY AWESOME. HIGHLY RECOMMEND ALL SERVICE CALLS LLC."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The best time to transplant a tree is when it is dormant. For many trees, this means either in the fall after the leaves have dropped (around October or November) or in early spring before new growth begins (around March). The ideal timing can depend on the type of tree. Deciduous trees do well when moved in early spring or fall, while evergreens are best transplanted in early spring or late summer. For example, pine trees are best moved in early fall, but maples prefer late fall. Avoid transplanting in winter, as the frozen or hard, cold soil poses a significant risk to the roots and prevents the tree from acclimating properly.

If an arborist is certified by the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA), the highest level of certification available is ISA Board Certified Master Arborist. According to the ISA, this credential is reserved for arborists “who have reached the pinnacle of their profession.” Check your arborist’s credentials before hiring to confirm their level of training and expertise.

Bradford pear trees bloom in early spring with small white flowers. They typically flower for at least two weeks. In bloom, these trees often emit a foul-smelling odor that’s often compared to rotting fish. Bradford pear trees will sometimes bloom in the fall due to drought or other stress-inducing conditions. 

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.

It depends on where you live—but in most areas, leaves begin falling in September and continue falling until January or February. Warmer regions, such as Southern states, may see leaves fall a bit later in the calendar year. It also depends on the type of trees in your yard and their maturity.
