"Cut down the tree that we agreed on and did a great job. The only complaint is I had another small tree that had been down for awhile with just the trunk remaining that they said they would take as well if they had the room as a favor. After they did the tree they were paid to do they said they did not have the room for the small tree but they pretty clearly did. I probably shouldnâ t complain cuz I didnâ t offer to pay them any extra for it and that might have magically created room. They definitely had room in my opinion and Iâ m not sure they were ever really going to try despite what they said. That said whoâ s really going the extra mile these days anyway? They cut the tree down they were paid for and took every branch without a trace in about 2 hours at market rate. Solid company just be clear and have everything on paper before they start if you have a larger project then this would be my take away from the experience. Which is probably a good idea anyway."

"Connor went above and beyond. I had a very large tree limb fall and and go through a fence. He came out to give a quote and mentioned he could repair the fence as well. Work was completed in a timely manner and price was very fair. Will definitely recommend to anyone I know looking for tree work!"

"These guys are excellent fellas and are very good at what they do! SUPER hard working, knowledgeable, professional, respectful, and courteous! We had 2 mid- sized and one large tree taken down on our property. They punctually showed up every step of the way. They assessed the work knowledgeably to begin with and quickly delivered a reasonable quote. They showed up when they said they would and immediately set to work with diligence and vigor. 3 trees taken down, cleaned up, and hauled off before noon the next day. These guys exceeded our expectations and we couldnt be any happier with their product. We wont be having tree work done by anybody else from now on!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Bleach can potentially kill some types of delicate ornamental trees, but for the most part, it will only kill the foliage it comes in contact with. Applying bleach is not an effective method of killing a tree. A better option is to use an herbicide, which is a chemical compound designed to effectively kill a tree. 

On average, tree removal costs around $750, with a typical range between $200 and $2,000. The final price depends on several factors, including the tree's height, trunk diameter, species, and overall health. Accessibility is also a key factor; costs will be higher if the tree is in a hard-to-reach area or located near structures like power lines or your home. Additional costs may apply for services such as stump removal (which can add $100 to $150), log-splitting, debris cleanup, and obtaining necessary permits. It is also customary to tip the professional, usually between $20 and $100.

Yes, pruning makes trees stronger because it fosters proper growth, weight distribution, and balance of the crown. By increasing the structural integrity of the tree through pruning, it’s less likely to experience disease, pests, broken limbs, and storm damage. Pruning the right branches and limbs is key to improving a tree’s strength and balance.

The recovery time for pruning depends on how much you prune, the species of tree, and how well you care for it afterward. All trees grow new wood and often sprout additional branches after pruning. Ideally, trees should recover from normal pruning after one or two years. Heavy pruning or slow-growing trees may take several years to fully recover.

Pruning is an effective way to prevent a diseased branch from infecting the rest of the tree. If the infection isn’t caught early enough and the pathogen has spread to the trunk or the majority of the branches though, it is too late to prune off the affected areas and you’ll likely need to remove the tree.
