"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."

"Cardona Tree Service did an outstanding job. When beryl came to my property I lost six huge oak trees. I called cardona tree service the next day and they were able to come the same day to remove the tree. They also did an outstanding job grinding the tree stumps and removing the debris. They have proven to be very professional, competent and the best part is their prices are very reasonable. I would not hesitate to call them again if i needed the service. Ronald Beaulieu"

"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."

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. 

Yes, forestry mulching can grind stumps, but the level of effectiveness depends on the equipment used. Drum mulchers can break down smaller stumps, but larger or deep-rooted stumps may require a dedicated stump grinder for complete removal. If full stump removal is necessary for replanting or construction, additional excavation may be needed. Always check with your forestry mulching provider to confirm whether they offer stump grinding and if their equipment is suitable for your specific needs.

While it’s best to have access to large, healthy, strong trees in a safe position, treehouse living is still possible without them. Contractors can fit tree posts to build the structure onto or use posts as additional support alongside the trees themselves. If you’re in doubt about the suitability of the trees on your land, consult with a local treehouse builder before you start the project.

If an arborist is certified by the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA), the highest level of certification available is ISA Board Certified Master Arborist. According to the ISA, this credential is reserved for arborists “who have reached the pinnacle of their profession.” Check your arborist’s credentials before hiring to confirm their level of training and expertise.

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.
