"Hooper’s Tree Service arrived on time, operated like a well-oiled machine, easily cutting down several trees located within a wooded area, cut tree limbs that were close to power lines in such a way that kept our front tree’s lovely shape. They carefully removed a huge tree branch hanging over our newly installed fence without incident. The staff were very professional, cleaning up all the tree litter, removing the felled tree trunks. They took great care to make sure the equipment didn’t ruin our lawn. They were quick, friendly, informative. Their rates were very good. Our neighbors who have had trees removed previously told us how impressed they were with Hooper’s Tree Service and one even contacted Hooper’s that day to schedule their own tree service. Zach Hooper is an experienced, knowledgeable, professional who was very accommodating. We recommend him and his company without reservation."

"Mike Thomas, the owner/operator responded to my call promptly. He came to my home within a few days and presented me with a written statement of cost on completion. My neighbors and I were able to schedule the stump grinding within a short period of time that fit our schedule. The work was completed as described in the work order. Mike arrived on time and completed the job in a neat and orderly fashion. I would recommend him to anyone including family and friends."

Customers say: True professional

"Before I engaged with this business I had already discussed tree removal with at least three others. As an old woman they thought they could convince me to go with them. But my inner voice said Hell No! When Zachary came to my house he didn't sound like a used car salesman. I felt the honesty of his words. No bs, very courteous and had a very reasonable charge. I felt good about my decision to choose him. He showed up when he said he would. Watching him and his crew was hypnotic. It was hard to get my house chores done. The team, with each person having specific tasks, operated like a well-oiled machine. I would definitely call this business again ."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The best tools for tree removal include a chainsaw for large trees, an ax for notching and cutting down small trees, and a wedge to help control the direction a tree falls in. A hatchet can be useful for very small trees, but won’t be effective for medium to large trees. 

A few signs a tree may be dead is if the leaves are dead and there are no signs of new blooms. You can also perform a scratch test on some of the branches to check the condition of the cambium layer beneath the bark.

If it is green, it is still alive, but if several are dry, brittle, and brown, the tree may be dying or dead. Always consult an arborist before assuming your tree is dead because you may be able to save it.

Generally, you’ll want to avoid pruning more than 25% of the tree’s canopy at one time. While pruning your tree is important, it’s possible to do it too often or to go too far. Again, this is why hiring a tree trimming pro to do the work is wise. However, if you do decide to DIY, going slow and trimming gradually is the name of the game.

Finding a reliable arborist starts with researching specialists in your area and checking their licensing and certifications. Use online resources like the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to conduct research on each company. Next, contact the arborist and ask the following questions to see whether they are the right fit for your project:

  • Do you handle or specialize in dealing with the issue I’m having?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Do you have any third-party certifications?

  • What equipment and strategies do you plan to use?

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.
