"Excellent experience overall. Workers arrived right on time. Work was done as requested. They planned and executed a fairly complicated takedown of a dead cherry wood tree that had cracked at the base and fallen against our house, without the tree causing any further damage. In addition, not only did they clear major oak tree branches from our second story roof, they also blew the debris off the roof, saving us from having to do that later (at some risk to our safety). All the rest of the trimming in the front and back yards was done to our satisfaction. We did ask that they not take away the wood and trimmed branches, so they didn’t have to deal with that. But they made sure to cut the wood into manageable sizes so that we could transport it to where we needed without too much effort. The guys were very knowledgeable and friendly as well. The cost overall was quite reasonable imo because of the level of complexity involved. They also knew about the health of the trees, not just how to trim them. They helped us identify a carpenter ant issue, and provided corrective care for it. Overall, I would definitely utilize Growing Solutions for any additional tree trimming or health work that we need going forward."

"We have used this service twice now, and have been pleased with their work and professionalism both times. We had one huge dead tree taken down in the back, and two Maples in front trimmed and dead removed. I’m pretty fussy about my plants, landscaping and not having things stepped on or disrupted, and they take the utmost care. BEARCO was recommended to us, and I would happily recommend them. If I need future tree services, they will be my first and only call."

"David Carter did a great job for me. He was prompt and kept me informed of how he planned on completing each task. He removed my fence and removed a very large stump in just 1 1/2 day. I would recommend his service to all!"

"I hired this company to cut back bushes taking over my yard. Not aesthetically attractive but looks tight and much better than before. Did the work quickly and cleaned up all the debris. I recommend this company."

"These guys stayed busy cutting trimming, removing and cleaning for the entire time. They left for lunch, came back and finished the job. Excellent job! I recommend Jonathan Quintana for all tree removal and trimming services. I will call him back to do the back yard where I have 5 more trees in the not too distant future."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is highly recommended to remove tree stumps. Leaving them in the ground can lead to several problems, as they are not only unsightly but can also reduce your property's value. Stumps can obstruct landscaping plans, make mowing difficult, and hinder new growth. More importantly, they are prime breeding grounds for pests like termites, ants, and mice, which can spread to your home and cause costly damage to its wood and foundation. Stumps also attract fungi and diseases that can infect other healthy trees and plants in your yard. As a stump decays, it might sprout new, unwanted shoots. While removing a stump is an investment, it prevents these potential issues and enhances the safety, health, and appearance of your landscape.

When a palm tree no longer produces new fronds and old fronds start turning yellow-brown, that’s a sign the tree is dying. However, transplanted palm trees can show these signs for the first several months as they re-establish themselves. It’s best to keep watering and not give up on the palm tree until a couple of seasons have passed and you’re sure it’s not coming back to life.

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.

Whether tree roots will continue to grow after a tree has been cut down depends on the species. Some tree roots will eventually die because they can no longer get nutrients through photosynthesis. However, other species that reproduce through root sprouts can continue to grow and produce new sprouts for seven years or more. For example, the roots of elms, ficus, and willows tend to regrow aggressively, while the roots of pines, oaks, and maples will typically die. To determine if a root system is still active, look for new sprouts on the old trunk, stump, or any exposed roots.

Common signs that a tree is rotting include dead branches, a leaning trunk, peeling or cracked bark, leaf discoloration, and the presence of fungi. If you notice any of these signs, it’s best to hire an arborist near you to inspect your tree and determine if it can be saved or if it needs to come down.
