They finished the job swiftly and cleaned up thoroughly right after.. We’ll absolutely use their services again in the future! Very pleasant and professional! 5 stars across the board!"

"C&J Tree service did an excellent job clearing some trees that were diseased on my property. They were on time, courteous and efficiently removed the trees and stumps, leaving the area ready for some fresh landscaping in the spring time (which I've already hired them to do). I highly recommend their services and plan to use them again for another project later this year to have arborvitae trees planted around the property line."

"20+ years ago Shaun done a great job and cut down couple trees for me. It was long time ago, a time without Angi. Now in May 2023, he done another good job for me by cutting done 1 tree. Good communication, quick response, good price. I wasn’t at home when they performed the work.Everything done right as I expected a good Contractor would do. I decided that this time I will drop a check at his company right away and also write this review to pay my respect to his work."

Customers say: True professional

"Brian Murphy's Expert Tree Care is fantastic! We actually first worked with Brian over 10 years ago, and I was so glad to see that he and his crew are just as helpful, professional, and respectful of our property as they were back then. It was frustrating trying to get callbacks from other tree companies in the area, but Brian responded and came by within 24 hours. He provided a very competitive quote and stayed in close contact right up until the work was scheduled and completed. It's hard to find that kind of reliability these days. I highly recommend them and will definitely reach out to Brian again if we need any more tree work done in the future."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Costs depend on tree height, trunk diameter, removal complexity, and required equipment.

You should prune ornamental trees once every other year after the fruit has matured and begun to drop. You should also prune out dead branches whenever you see them. Pruning too often can stimulate more growth, especially in faster growing varieties like Bradford pears.

White vinegar does not kill ivy on trees because its acetic acid concentration is not high enough to overpower it. Vinegar is an effective herbicide for weeds and other plants, but not for the strength of most ivies, including poison ivy and English ivy. You should use an herbicide to kill ivy, such as one with glyphosate, imazapyr, or triclopyr.

If the roots are still alive, the dead tree will usually try to put out new shoots. That doesn’t mean the tree will survive or that the dead parts of a tree will come back to life. If parts of the tree have died and turned gray or rotten, nothing will bring them back to life and they need to be safely removed.

If you want to take your tree-planting hobby beyond your outdoor space, here are a few great ways to do it:

  • Encourage your neighbors to participate in the Arbor Day Foundation’s Tree City USA program, which has a four-step framework that helps communities grow and maintain their own tree cover.

  • Support businesses that plant trees. 

  • Lobby your local government to plant more trees around your community.

  • Donate to a tree-planting charity.
