"I own a large suburban lot in Deer Park, IL with lots of trees and have hired Mike and his crew from AAA Arborist Tree Experts for three major projects over the past few years. I've had nothing but excellent service from him! He's friendly, knowledgeable, keeps his word and delivers high quality. The most difficult project was removing a VERY LARGE willow that overhung my house. It had weak limbs and I knew it would cause problems for me if not removed. Mike's crew removed the willow safely at a fair price. I was impressed. The other two projects were clearing buckthorn and diseased trees (while leaving more desirable species) in various areas of my lot. In both cases Mike and his crew did a great job and I was extremely pleased with the result. When ever I need tree service, Mike is the guy I call!"

"I had a large maple tree in an enclosed backyard that reached over fences and power lines. Rubio responded quickly to my inquiry, explaining the general condition of the tree and his recommendation for removal. The price he quoted was very competitive, and he was able to begin work on the tree that week. Once they started, the 4 person crew removed the tree without damage to power line or fence, ground the large stump, and removed all the remains of the tree. They finished the job in two days. They had the price, know how, equipment, and personnel to do the job. Based on my experience, I recommend Rubio."

Tree Service FAQs, 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.

Late winter is ideal, but if you’re pruning apple trees in the spring, prune them as early as possible in the season. You want to ensure your tree is just creeping out of dormancy and hasn’t started pushing out new growth. If you prune your tree too late into spring, you generally won’t see results until the following year.

That said, there’s no pruning season for unhealthy growth. Remove dead, dying, or diseased branches as soon as you notice them, regardless of the time of year.

If a tree stump is removed properly, the chances of a tree growing back are low. However, if a tree has a robust root system, roots can sometimes sprout and someday grow into a tree. The chance of regrowth will depend on several factors such as the type of tree, soil quality, and strength of the root system. In general, it is not recommended to plant a tree where a stump was removed.

Talking with a septic pro before planting trees near your tank is best to ensure the roots won’t interfere with your septic system. However, there is an easy way to figure out where to plant a tree—but you’ll need to know how tall it can get when it’s fully grown. For instance, if the tree can reach 50 feet, plant it at least 50 feet from your septic system.

Trees are beneficial to the environment and wildlife. If you have an old tree, but it’s healthy, it may be best to avoid cutting it down. However, if it’s showing signs of bug infestation, disease, or is potentially hazardous, then you should contact a tree removal company to cut it down. 

If you are unsure whether you should have it removed or not, then speak with an arborist to determine what is best.
