"Paulo and Sons were quick with a quote and were able to complete the job quickly and for a great price. Since we were having stumps ground they asked that we get our utilities marked by JULIE; other pros didn't even suggest this; Paulo and Sons are thinking about safety first! Once our yard was marked, I called and they came to complete the job in less than 24 hours. They removed 4 arborvitae (10-18 feet tall) and trimmed a crab apple tree. Great work and would not hesitate to call again!"

"Horjes and Joe did a fantastic job. They were skilled and careful with an eye for appropriate shapes and sizes for each tree trimmed. Not to be confused with an Alberquer New Mexico firm named with almost the same name on Angi. My husband and I were pleased with their curtesy, ability to clean up everything and to work diligently and safely. We want them to come back again in th late fall to work on trimming our very large oak tree."

"BTR responded within a few minutes of my request. They arrived as stated to bbn give their quote. The tree was spit down the center of the trunk all the way to fairly close to the ground. They offered to strap it together to hold it so that it didn't fall on the neighbor's house and deck. My husband didn't see the need. They arrived the next day as stated and went to work. They also ground remaining tree roots from a locust tree removed several years ago which continued to send up new growth. They were excellent at protecting the neighbor's property and ours. They did an excellent job of grinding the stump of the tree they removed. They also did an excellent job of finding and grinding the locust tree roots that were problematic. The person who stayed to do the grinding also did cleanup. He did an excellent clesnup. There was a large pile of remaining woodchips. He offered me the removed maple tree woodchips which i accepted and have used for mulch. These guys were excellent start to finish as opposed to the company i used several years ago who left tree roots from three trees that had to be removed. This company had the crew and equipment to expertly and efficiently handle the job. They were professional and courteous. I am glad we used Angi this time instead of friend referral. I would highly recommend BTR!"

"Best price all around, and the best quality work around. I had five trees removed from my property, one of which was extremely big. These guys started at 8:30 and cut all 5 trees down, removed the stumps and roots, and clean the whole property in less than 8 hours. I have already recommended these guys to two of my friends and will continue to refer them in the future. This company earned and deserved the 5 star rating across the board. Donâ t hesitate to call them!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The typical lifespan of a Bradford pear is relatively short, only 15 to 25 years. However, these trees have issues long before their life is over. Due to their soft wood and fast-growing branches, Bradford pear trees often split around 15 years, making them a risk for falling branches and more prone to disease. 

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. 

Hiring an arborist or tree surgeon is usually more expensive than a standard tree company, but it is often worth the investment. Arborists have education and certifications that standard companies typically lack, leading to a more professional, expert-level service. Their expertise is particularly valuable for diseased or infested trees, as they can ensure safer removal and help prevent the issue from spreading. Additionally, arborists may be necessary for work near power lines, as uncertified companies are often not permitted to service these trees. If your goal is to preserve the health of your trees, an arborist is the best choice. Their services, such as stump grinding, are also performed with greater expertise to ensure a safe depth that won't cause your lawn to collapse over time.

Yes, it is essential to confirm that any tree service company you hire is properly insured before they begin work. Tree removal, trimming, and pruning are dangerous jobs, and proper insurance protects you, your home, and the company from liability in case of accidents or damage. Look for a company that carries both general liability and workers’ compensation insurance, and do not hire one that cannot provide proof of coverage. When browsing for professionals, you can look for indicators like an “Angi Approved” badge, which signifies that the business meets standards like holding applicable licenses and passing a background check. Keep in mind that a license is a legal requirement to operate, while certifications are typically voluntary.

According to scientists at Penn State University, spotted lanternflies do not typically kill the trees and plants they feed on, but they can cause branches and segments to die off. However, they have been found to kill cultivated grapes, which can have devastating consequences for vineyard owners and regions that heavily rely on vineyards to create jobs and generate revenue. They have also killed the Ailanthu altissima, known as the tree of heaven, though this is classified as a noxious and invasive weed tree.
