"These guys were very responsive with a really quick turnaround time. They came out and cut down three dead trees and removed 4 stumps. They were in and out within a couple hours. They were very professional and left the work area neat and clean. I would definitely refer them to others as well as hire them again."

"Rickie did a great job tackling a monster of a tree. Very friendly and takes pride in his work. I will hire him again if the need comes up. He also repaired my patio for a very reasonable price. Now I don't have a waterfall under the patio. 🤗"

"Paige Freeman contacted me within 3 hours of purchasing the "Big Deal"  on October 31.  Came to my house,  told me what was needed and started the job  the next morning.    He was prompt and courteous  as was his staff.   He cleaned up the refuse from the tree trimming...frankly my yard looked better after he left than it had before.    He did everything that needed to be done.  I am very pleased with his service  and I will hire him again.

Arborists questions, answered by experts

No. Topping a tree refers to severely cutting down all its major branches and tree in a straight line. It was once recommended for streetside deciduous trees but has fallen out of practice. Topping leads to many problems, removing so much of the tree that many trees struggle to survive and become much more vulnerable to insects and diseases. Also, it doesn’t really help tree growth as once assumed and often leads to an ugly appearance of many sprouting stems in competition to become new main branches.

Palm tree removal can cost anywhere between $100 and $1,800 depending on palm size, tree condition, labor, location, and the amount of prep work involved. With the necessary skills, a DIY palm tree removal for trees shorter than 15 feet can lower costs. However, it’s generally recommended that you hire a palm tree expert for tree removal.

Tree pruning is a common and helpful tree maintenance technique that involves carefully cutting and trimming unwanted branches so that the tree can continue to grow and thrive. Pruning is done carefully and intentionally. Tree topping is a frowned-upon method that involves removing and cutting most or the entirety of the top of the tree, including structurally important branches.

You will know that an oak tree needs to be removed when you see vertical cracks or dead branch stubs, which indicate internal decay. Other signs include trunk rot near the base of the tree and sprouts or small branches coming from the trunk.

In the case that a tree is growing directly on your property line, the cost of maintaining the tree is shared and is the property of both owners in common. In this case, all decisions regarding the maintenance of the tree must be made jointly, and both parties must agree on a course of action. You will need to agree with your neighbor about the cutting of any roots before you carry it out, and your neighbor must also consult with you before doing any trimming. Coming to an agreement with your neighbor about any shared trees ahead of necessary trimming and maintenance will make this process much simpler.
