"I strongly recommend BAH Pro tree service. They cut down a large dogwood tree that had become too big for the space. BAH Pro was prompt, polite, fair priced, and knew what to do. They cleaned up work site to complete their work."

"C&J was super professional and timely. They helped us reach out to our neighbor to split the cost of cutting down their dead tree (that was affecting our house). The first time they came they did leave a bit of branch touching our house, but they came back the next day to fix it."

"We had a large tree removal project involving 20 trees and including a large, damaged maple with 5ft dia trunk. I received multiple quotes for the project and ended up selecting Jose. His price was competitive and in-line with others. Showed up with his crew a day earlier than planned and completed on-time in 3 days with all material removed from site and stumps ground down. Great, positive attitude from Jose and all of his crew. Would hire again and strongly recommend."

"I originally hired Services & More to cut my grass. But...one thing led to another. As I also had an issue with one one my windows. The trim was rotted and water was getting into the wall causing damage, along with that, we desperately needed to replace our shingles. My husband and I wanted vinyl siding done. Adam, was very helpful with the whole process. Before I knew it everything we needed done had gotten done, and then some. What I liked most about this company was he never pushed or tried to sell us on any services. We just happened to ask. Once again, Adam took care of what we wanted to do and more, because we asked, including our garden beds. When they did the siding, they replaced ply wood in the areas that needed it, and also repaired the foundation, in certain spots. Adam also did the interior of our wall, where that window was. ALL VERY reasonable in price! Considering that they did quite a lot. They are my go to guys!! I've hired them for life! Highly recommend!!"

"Gustavo called the day I submitted the request and came out to take a look later that day. He was great - explained our options for tree removal. We agreed on which trees and how to leave the stumps (grinding down or outright removal to be determined later with other projects). We agreed on a price and because he had another job in our area, he was able to fit us in the following day. The day of, his crew arrived early. We had coffee ready or them and gave them the run of the kitchen and one of our two bathrooms. All were really nice and got to work right away removing two very large trees and one much smaller one. They were done in about 6 hours. Gustavo and crew cleaned up the entire sideboard and with the exception of the stumps, you would not know the work was just done. They were just fabulous and we are considering them for future tree removal projects."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

If it’s only a smaller branch that has died and you’re keeping an eye on the tree, it’s probably nothing to worry about. But if other nearby branches start dying off as well, or a very large branch dies, then you likely have a bigger problem. It’s time to watch for diseases and other problems and possibly get professional guidance on how to proceed.

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

Tree borers are difficult to control and remove once they make a home in your tree. However, with patience and determination, some methods can slow the damage or even eliminate the pests. But, once the damage is too much for the tree to handle, the only solution becomes removing it. Talk to a tree specialist early for the best chance at saving your tree.

While there is a lot of debate about whether boiling water is strong enough to kill tree roots, it is not best to remove the roots from large, old trees. You may be able to weaken young roots enough to remove them manually, but boiling water will likely not do the trick for large root systems.

Trees that flower in the spring—like dogwood, cherry, magnolia, and pear—should not be pruned during the winter. These spring-flowering plants grow buds on old growth, so you’ll actually remove what would’ve been gorgeous flowering foliage. Instead, wait to prune until right after they bloom, when the flowers fade.
