"I can’t say enough good things about Precision Tree Service. They removed a hugh water oak in my backyard that was dangerously close to falling on my home. Thomas was very quick to come give me an estimate and explain what needed to be done and how he would go about it. He answered all of my questions and his wife Gloria was very helpful as well. Thomas has many years of experience as an Arborist and he and Gloria are honest and trustworthy people. They did everything they said they would do and were very careful with the take down and removal of the tree. I would 100% recommend them to anyone who needs tree services. They really helped me through this experience for which i am very grateful."

Big Bark does the big tree jobs while keeping you, your property, and ourselves safe. That is the core principle on which we built Big Bark. \n \nBig Bark Tree Care is made of some of the toughest guys you will ever meet. Long hours, exhausting work, and a potentially dangerous environment. It takes incredible mental fortitude to keep safety as the number one priority day in, day out.

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

A serrated knife will work for cutting off small palm tree fronds, about 1 inch in diameter. For larger fronds, you will need pruning shears. You may also use a pruning saw, and if your palm tree is especially tall, an extended pole saw can help you reach the brown fronds around the trunk.

If a tree isn’t pruned, it can inhibit proper growth and fruit production, cause damage to both the tree and your property, and create entry points for pests and diseases. Pruning a tree enhances its stability, appearance, shape, and growth. Pruning trees regularly can also save you money long-term by avoiding overgrown or dangerous dying trees.

A chainsaw is the best tool to cut down a tree, but you may also use a handsaw or ax. You may also want to use a lopper or pole saw to remove limbs before cutting down the tree. Wear chainsaw chaps and protective gear, including eyewear and earplugs if you use a chainsaw. Again, if you’re unsure about how to use this tool, this project may be one to skip.

No. Most of the time, suckers are only a sign that the tree is experiencing stress. However, they can also be the canary in the coal mine, letting you know that something else is stressing your tree. If you have lots of suckers on your tree, calling in an arborist or a tree care expert is always a good call to determine the cause and develop a solution that de-stresses your tree.

Using Epsom salt to kill a tree stump typically takes between six and 12 months. While this may seem like a long time, it is significantly faster than the natural decomposition process, which can take up to seven years. This method is a viable DIY option for stumps that do not pose an immediate hazard. If you need a faster solution, you can hire a professional for stump removal or grinding, though this may cause more damage to the surrounding ground.
