"Phoenix is a great company from beginning of project to the end. They removed multiple trees and stumps over a 2 day period, with 5 different workers, all of whom were expert, hard-working, and courteous. Canâ t say enough good things about Phoenix Landscaping, starting with the owner, who evaluated the job,, and gave fair price, to each worker, and to everyone who schedules and billsâ ¦ The absolute best choice Iâ e made in Avery long time!!!"

"Good communication. Willing to be flexible about what I needed done. Even were able to schedule earlier than they first connected with me. Did a thorough job and even offered to put in some mulch where it was needed. Plan on requesting their services again for planting, now that the trees and bushes pruned back."

"Johnnyâ s did a great grinding a difficult stump - very close to asphalt drive and gas line. I had used excavator to remove several others but grinding was the only option with this stump. Price was very reasonable. Communications before starting the job was very good. Removal and clean-up was done in an excellent manner. Highly recommend."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Steer clear of the area and contact your utility company immediately. It will have a website portal and/or a phone number to report downed trees and electrical issues. If the tree appears to be on public land, you may want to call your local government and report the issue there, too.

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

Unfortunately, most of the time you’re out of luck if a neighbor’s tree blocks your view. You don’t have a right to a view, so if you have a tree that’s near the property line but on your neighbor’s property, you can’t cut it to be able to take in a majestic mountain or a beautiful sunrise. In some communities, however, there are ordinances protecting scenic views. Checking into your local laws can help you determine your rights in this situation.

No, you cannot plant a tree above a gas line. Tree roots grow and spread over time and can sometimes dent, crack, or penetrate a gas line. Those same roots may also cause accessibility problems for maintenance or repairs. You can generally plant vegetation with non-invasive root systems, low-growing vegetation, and flower beds near gas lines. 

Trees naturally want to grow upward, so one may straighten all by itself, though this only comes into play when a tree is leaning just a small amount. For trees growing into an awkward position or those leaning heavily in one direction, the above steps are necessary to ensure the tree gets back on the right path. This also holds true for trees planted in a spot with unstable soil.
