"We found John and his crew of 2 to be professional. Remember when hiring a tree service for an estimate, to state all you want done. We had 3 trees removed. One tree died from the heat and was the reason we needed a tree service. We live on a little less than an acre corner lot in a subdivision. Another tree on our lot that we had removed was on our property line that had some large branches that hung over our neighbor's house. It needed to go. There was no damage or mess on neighbor's property during and after the tree removal. The third tree that was removed was also in our back yard and was leaning towards our house. John told us after he cut it down that it had ants in it 40 feet up and our decision to have it removed was a good one. They started on Monday, Finished on Tuesday and ground up the stumps on Thursday. The only thing that was of a concern was the heat from the lift motor did do some damage to the grass it was stationary over, and there was some kind of oil leak marks as well, but overall that's to be expected I'm sure. The log removal equipment did do some grass trauma removing large logs from property but this too is to be expected.. Overall experience was good. John's staff was definitely professional and courteous and we were satisfied. John's Action Tree Removal business is a + and we will keep them in mind if we need tree work in the future."

"I had some timber people come to my place and leave a big mess on my property. Mr. Flesher came up here, told me what he can do. and followed through impeccably. He fenced my driveway, removed stumps, smoothed out my property from where the timber people tore it up, and leveled out the land. He is very reliable, polite, and dependable. Goes above and beyond. Gives recommendations, instead of just charging for services that haven't been discussed."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Pruning trees is important for several reasons. It improves tree health and strength by removing dead, diseased, or unwanted branches, which in turn encourages new growth and can help treat disease. For fruit trees, proper pruning can lead to a larger and better-quality harvest. Pruning also enhances safety by removing weak limbs that could break and fall, potentially causing injury or property damage, especially during storms. Beyond these functional benefits, pruning can also improve a tree's appearance. To ensure pruning is done correctly for the tree's long-term health, consider hiring a professional.

After a big storm, you may not be sure if a tree was struck or not. Look for the telltale long scars, like strips or gouges in the bark of the tree, running in sometimes jagged lines down the length of the trunk. These scars will often show vulnerable living wood inside the tree. It’s also common to see scorched or wilted leaves on the side or top of the tree where lightning struck.

You should plant trees at least 15 to 20 feet away from your house, and more if the tree will grow large and spread its limbs. Trees pose several dangers to houses when planted too close. They can litter the roof with leaves and branches, create fire hazards, make a ladder for larger pests, and even damage the foundation as their roots grow.

Most trees can be successfully transplanted while they are young, but pines, walnuts, and some oak tree varieties are more difficult to move because their root systems grow deeper than most other trees. Also, trees adapted to sandy soil with wide root systems like beeches, willows, and aspens are harder to dig out because their roots spread much farther out from the trunk. In these cases, unless the trees are very young and small, it’s a good idea to consult a tree planting professional.

Completely topping a plum tree is a risky business. Cut too much, and you’ll kill your tree. That said, you do need to trim the top of your tree to encourage bushy growth, maintain your tree’s vase shape, and limit size. 

A plum tree's central leader (or trunk) should never extend more than 3 feet above the highest branch. When you first plant your tree, cut the central leader so it’s 2 to 3 feet tall. As it grows, cut it back 12 to 20 inches until it reaches its desired height. Never prune more than one-third of the new growth.
