"J E Landscaping sent an estimator the day after we placed the request. Our tree was rotting from the inside, unknown to us. A large branch crashed down on our house 2 days later. Our insurance said to have the tree removed before they could send an adjuster. This company was able to come out on Monday to work on the Emergency Tree removal. We had the entire tree cut down, including the stump. The men worked 10 hours. They were amazing, hard working, careful and friendly. They worked around wires near the house and tree without damage. Flower and vegetable gardens were intact. The stump was ground up. Wood chips taken away. Black dirt and grass seeded in the hole. Cleanup was fantastic. I would recommend JE Landscaping for 5 Star work."

"I am an out of State investor. A tree fell on a property, and there were several other trees that were going to fall too. They worked with me to get all the trees cut in the backyard. I was hesitant because I am not local, but they kept me informed with photos and video. The next door neighbor also kept me informed because one tree was leaning towards her property. I am happy I worked with them and so is the neighbor. It was done within 2 days and I would hire them again."

Customers say: True professional

"Dennis came out and listened to what I needed to have done and gave me a fair quote. He and his crew were very professional and polite. They took down one very large tree and trimmed another one, they took care of all of the clean up and took everything away with them. Dennis even checked to make sure I was happy with their work during and after they had finished. I would highly recommend them. cj"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Some trees will bounce back just fine, and others will struggle and possibly die. Evergreens, for instance, have a very difficult time recovering after droughts and usually die after periods of extreme dryness. Usually, you’ll have to just wait and see—if the drought occurs in wintertime, it’s possible that your tree will recover during the gentler springtime.

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

If you don’t trim your palm trees, you can expect several negative outcomes, including:

  • Unhealthy palm trees attract pests, diseases, and fungi 

  • Dead falling fronds can cause severe injury or damage to your home, pedestrians, or cars

  • Dead palm branches are flammable and can catch fire, especially during a lightning storm

Trees that flower in the spring—like dogwood, cherry, magnolia, and pear—should not be pruned during the winter. These spring-flowering plants grow buds on old growth, so you’ll actually remove what would’ve been gorgeous flowering foliage. Instead, wait to prune until right after they bloom, when the flowers fade.

The lifespan of a bird's nest depends on the species. The building process can take from two days to three weeks. Once built, the nesting period for baby birds can last from two to ten weeks before they leave the nest. While most young birds are ready in two to six weeks, some predatory species may need up to two and a half months. Some species nest four to five times per year, so a nest could remain in use for several months. For specific information about a particular nest's longevity, it is best to consult a wildlife professional.
