"Got 4 bids for this project. Martinez had the second lowest bid at $900. The 2 higher bids were $1,920 and $1,500. They had an excellent crew and good equipment (trucks, trailers, loading crane, etc.). Had a smaller tree that we decided to remove rather than trim and they did this for no additional charge. I highly recommed Martinez Family Tree."

"A very pleasant group to work with at a good price. They were contracted to perform tree trimming, primarily to remove dead branches. I felt like it was slightly overdone, as many branches were removed that were not dead, leaving a significantly different look. Some dead branches were missed, and many of the cut branches stayed hung up in the tree, which ultimately fell down later or will be falling down later. I certainly am not an arborist, and maybe what seemed like the work was overdone, will work itself out with new and expanding fill in. If that is the case I take back anything that may have sounded negative in this review. They were certainly a pleasant group to work with and should be considered by others."

"It was an excellent service. They removed 5 trees and trimmed up 4 more trees in 6 hours period of time. Very reasonable price. They just charged me 2500USD for the work. We were very impressed with the service."

"Seth and his crew respect the trees, the property and the customer. They did all of the work without having to drive any heavy machinery onto the property,, so the yard was not damaged at all. They had two guys up in the trees with chainsaws and two on the ground picking up and raking. When they were finished, the trees looked great. Not like they had been hacked up, but that they had been neatly trimmed. No more dead branches hanging and falling. Just very clean looking. I just bought this old House and have a lot of improvements to make, so I could not afford to get all of the tree work done at once. We are doing it in stages. I am planning to have them back to do more work on my property in the near future. I was very impressed with their whole operation!"

Customers say: Quick response

"We loved Axewood Tree Service. They did professional work with a smile at an excellent price. And even though we accidentally asked for a tree trim instead of a bush trim, they handled our tea camellia beautifully. They also took out some old trash with no questions asked. It's nice to see some folks still have respect for their elders out there"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

If it’s your property, then you can plant a tree near power lines, but it’s not the best idea. Any vegetation that grows within 10 feet or so of power lines will fall under the responsibility of the utility company, and they may trim or remove it as necessary. If you do move forward with your plan, try to choose a smaller ornamental tree, plant it as far away from the power lines as you can, and keep it trimmed to avoid future problems.

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.

If you’re planning on keeping the tree, unless the roots are invasive, there’s no need to remove them, as doing so can cause damage to the tree. If the tree has been cut down and the stump and roots are left, grinding and removing the stump can cause root decay for some species. For other species, the stump and roots will need to be removed to prevent pests, disease, and possible tree regrowth.

Not all evergreen conifers need to be pruned, but some do. Pruning pine trees is not necessary, but you can do so during June and July if you wish. On the other hand, spruce, firs, and junipers do need to be pruned from late winter to early spring.

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.
