"Highly Recommend! Josh's Tree and Landscaping did what other companies said couldn't be done! I had three massive oak trees in my backyard that needed to come down, including one over 80 feet tall and dangerously close to my house. Two other companies wouldn't even attempt the job because of the size, limited access, and proximity to structures. Josh and his crew took on the challenge and did an absolutely amazing job! Without being able to use a crane, they removed all three trees the old-fashioned way, with incredible skill, teamwork, and precision. Not a single bit of damage to my house, fences, or neighboring property. And the icing on the cake? Their price was much less than what other companies had estimated! It's rare to find a crew with this combination of skill, work ethic, positive attitude, and fair pricing. Josh and his team accomplished what others wouldn't even attempt. I couldn't be more pleased and would recommend them without hesitation!"

"The crew was on time and did an excellent job. The tree had to be climbed for the limbs to be removed due to the tree's location. They completed the job quickly and cleaned up the debris. We would definitely call them again!!"

"We had a great experience with this tree service company. We first met them when our neighbor’s Maple tree fell, and we were impressed with how hard they worked, responding to the emergency and handling everything professionally. When our large pine tree in the backyard died, we called them to take it down. They did an excellent job from start to finish. You can tell they care about their work. Highly recommend this family tree service team if you need any tree work done. Great people and great service!"

"Bonito and his crew were very personable and professional. Was on time, on day agreed on with no delays. Even did additional work requested at last minute with no complaints. Truly customer oriented, (which seems to be lacking in too many businesses nowadays). Would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a good tree service company."

"They did a great job. I had a chunk of saplings on the property that had taken root enough they would take some elbow grease to remove. Byron showed me their work progress and talked me through their work process to ensure we were both on the same page for the job request. They dug out the root system on each sapling/tree and filled the holes back in. Took all the excess foliage off the property with them as well. I can’t say how the prices compare to other companies services, but it was worth it for me for the peace of mind and how quickly they got back to my job listing. Saplings can be such a pain when they take root and start destroying your foundation/property."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

You’ll have to balance up the cost, the value of the tree (sentimental or otherwise), and the risk factors. An experienced arborist will help you understand whether transplanting is likely to be successful. The cost and hassle of transplanting a large, well-established tree are often not worth it, especially if the species is fast-growing and easy to source. The decision depends on the age and species of the tree, the conditions in the new site location, and how careful the company is when digging out and moving the tree.

Homeowners are usually not responsible for trees that fall on power lines. Power companies usually have utility easements around power lines, which give them the responsibility to maintain any trees within about 15 to 20 feet of the lines.

You can use a chainsaw, but it won’t remove the entire stump or root ball and is not a recommended method. It takes quite a bit of physical work to achieve and will likely dull or ruin your chainsaw. Instead, consider using salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, stump grinding, or burning to kill a tree stump. These methods allow you to kill a stump using minimal machinery and physical exertion.

Using vinegar to kill tree roots is just one of the clever ways to use vinegar around the house. The method works best when you apply vinegar as directly to the root system as possible. For example, if the old tree roots and stump are currently exposed, drill holes in the tops of the roots and pour undiluted white vinegar into the holes to soak into the plant. Remember that vinegar can kill the surrounding grass and plants should it pour over the edge.

If a disease has attacked and destroyed the roots, then the tree may fall over as soon as it has died or while part of it is still alive. Trees that die with their roots left in place tend to stay standing for much longer, but those roots will decay eventually, allowing gravity to do the rest.
