"We had a huge, 200+ foot, tree that had died and needed removal. This tree was alongside our church as well as next to a neighbor's garage. They had all the needed equipment to cut the tree safely, using a crane to remove the large limbs first and reducing the tree down to the stump. (Stump removal scheduled for a future date.) They were friendly and were considerate towards the concerns of the neighbor. Hopefully, our other large trees won't need to be removed, but I will call these folks up again to do that work, if needed."

"Hometown Tree experts were excellent from the start to end. Scheduling the free estimate to the actual removal was very smooth. Our guy who completed the estimate (Mark maybe?), Brandi at the office and the staff who removed the tree were exceptionally efficient and responsive. The quality of work and customer service were top notch."

"JNO has performed an excellent job in removing two tall pine trees in my back yard at a very reasonable price. Very fast and professional service. All the tree branches have been removed, leaving the yard very clean. The owner is very friendly and patient. Highly recommend! They even fixed my broken fence door latch and trimmed another small tree for free."

"Edgar and his crew removed a very large maple in our backyard. There were large branches hanging over the house and garage. They did a great job with this complicated removal. Edgar is easy to deal with and his prices are reasonable. His crew was very pleasant. They cleaned up beautifully and started and finished right on schedule. HIGHLY RECOMMEND."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

The best time to transplant a tree is when it is dormant. For many trees, this means either in the fall after the leaves have dropped (around October or November) or in early spring before new growth begins (around March). The ideal timing can depend on the type of tree. Deciduous trees do well when moved in early spring or fall, while evergreens are best transplanted in early spring or late summer. For example, pine trees are best moved in early fall, but maples prefer late fall. Avoid transplanting in winter, as the frozen or hard, cold soil poses a significant risk to the roots and prevents the tree from acclimating properly.

Tree roots are hearty and complex systems, so they don’t die immediately after the rest of the tree is removed. If you leave the root system in place, it takes anywhere from two to seven years for it to run out of nutrients. It is worth noting, however, that the roots stop growing and expanding after cutting down the rest of the tree.

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.

Trimming a tree can take anywhere from just two hours to a full day, depending on the age of the tree, the number of trees, and the species. Young trees are generally easier to trim, as their branches are often thinner in diameter and easier to reach compared to mature trees. They also tend to be healthier. If you haven’t trimmed your trees before or it’s been a while, the process could take even longer.

Cutting down a tree next to power lines is never a DIY job, and it’s a good idea to contact your utility company first. In most cases, the utility company will need to take care of any tree problems within 10 to 15 feet of power lines. If you want to remove the tree for aesthetic reasons, hire a pro to do the job. Trying to cut trees near power lines yourself can create many safety hazards, and you could be liable if you inadvertently cause damage to electrical equipment.
