"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

A dead tree should always be cut down, because it could fall and cause injuries or damage, and it can also attract insects like carpenter ants. A tree that’s diseased beyond repair should also be cut down, but it’s not always easy for a homeowner to tell. Signs of disease include dying branches, a hollow trunk, leaning, and discolored or missing leaves, but your best bet is to hire a local arborist who can evaluate the tree and tell you if it can be saved or should be cut down.

Generally, homeowners do not need permission to cut down a tree on their own private property, but there are several exceptions where a permit may be required. You might need a permit if the tree is particularly large, old, or a protected species, such as a heritage tree. Trees located near public property or power lines can also be subject to special rules. Additionally, many local governments and homeowners associations (HOAs) have regulations controlling which trees can be removed to manage an area's appearance or prevent the spread of invasive species. To avoid hefty fines, it is crucial to check with your local government and HOA to determine if a permit is needed before you begin.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

Getting a tree pro with the right experience can be the difference between your transplanted tree surviving or not. When hiring a local tree transplanting and removal service, follow up on references, check their portfolio, ask for a breakdown of the costs, and get proof of liability and workers’ compensation insurance. 

Also, look for companies certified by the International Society of Arboriculture or registered with the Tree Care Industry Association and make sure they have an appropriate state or city license.

Peach trees grow to be about 25 feet, so keep this in mind for pruning as well. If you plan to DIY, you’ll need to be comfortable working on a ladder. Without pruning, peach tree branches can sprawl nearly as wide as the tree grows tall, so make sure to plan pruning sessions at least once per year in the spring for controlled growth. And if you’re working on a ladder, be sure to follow all safety precautions, especially if you’ll be dealing with falling branches.
