"They called right away and came the next day. I had carpet that had to be relayed after a small flood in my basement. I was not only thrilled to find someone to do that job, but so happy they came right away. The job was done promptly and everything left in really good shape. I may even use them for a deck project. I have since communicated via email with Luke regarding my deck project. He answered every question and explained all with much satisfaction. I am so happy to find such a versatile company!"

"Excellent job. Total 3 cut down and 6 cut into firewood lengths. They cut down very large oak and large hickory, in tight spots, and one sycamore. Then they cut the oak, hickory and four black walnuts into firewood lengths for us. We chose to keep wood for ourselves so there was no haul away. Luke was extremely good to work with. Also shout out to Lauryn for keeping me posted on schedule. Would highly recommend to everyone."

"Andres Alfonso and his crew did a great job at my home. We had 10 very large trees removed and ABS was very efficient in doing the work. They showed up when scheduled and removed all of the debris. I felt that they gave me a fair price for the work done and all of their crew acted in a professional manner. Even though they are based in Texas I will always call them first for any yard of landscaping work that I need done. THANKS Andi"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

You can start your search for a reputable arborist online by looking for professionals who hold the proper licensing and are fully insured. Next, read through some online reviews to see what kind of service the expert brings to the table, and confirm that they don’t have a history of complaints with the Better Business Bureau. Finally, you can ask the professional for a list of references and then call them to ask questions about the service, professionalism, value, and more that the expert brings to the table.

Dead trees are dangerous for several reasons. They are structurally compromised and prone to branch or trunk failure, which can pose a significant safety risk to people, vehicles, and nearby structures. Dead trees can also harbor pests like termites, which may spread to other trees or your home. If a tree died from a disease, it could spread the illness to healthy trees. Additionally, the dry wood is highly flammable, increasing fire risk.

Generally, you do not have the right to take fruit from a neighbor's tree, even if the branches overhang your property. The fruit is considered the property of the tree's owner. While you may have the right to trim branches that cross into your yard, the fruit on them typically still belongs to your neighbor. However, laws can vary by state and municipality. In some areas, branches that extend into your yard or trees that straddle a property line may entitle you to some of the fruit. The best course of action is to speak with your neighbor, as they may be happy to share. If a conversation is not possible, check your local regulations before picking any fruit.

No. Topping a tree refers to severely cutting down all its major branches and tree in a straight line. It was once recommended for streetside deciduous trees but has fallen out of practice. Topping leads to many problems, removing so much of the tree that many trees struggle to survive and become much more vulnerable to insects and diseases. Also, it doesn’t really help tree growth as once assumed and often leads to an ugly appearance of many sprouting stems in competition to become new main branches.

You can trim just one side of the tree, especially when that side is growing near something like a power line or a home. Pros will carefully trim the tree back until it is safe from that structure. While this is common, it also needs to be done with the utmost care, as pruning or trimming away at one side of the tree may make it structurally unsound. This instance is yet another where hiring a pro is wise, especially if power lines are involved.
