"Excellent service from responding for an estimate to job completion. Mr. Harmon and his crew removed nine (9) trees in a townhouse community. The trees were in various stages of falling with huge branches over the community parking areas, light posts and sidewalks. They came on time, cleaned up each area as they completed the work, and checked with me to see if there were any concerns during the process. The estimate was very good and it was what the final job cost. Everyone was professional and courteous, and I highly recommend!"

"The Contractor (Greentree) did a fabulous job !! The entire crew was friendly, courteous, and very professional. Starting with the initial site visit (by Jeff Stone) Greentree was focused on customer satisfaction. The care and attention to detail (i.e. to ensure no damage was done to any surrounding trees, shrubs, etc.) was clearly noticeable and far exceeded expectation. I would certainly recommend Greentree for any tree service (large or small) project you might have."

"Highly recommend Tri-County Tree Service. Quick to respond to request for free estimate. Work was performed when scheduled. All team members were courteous, professional and respectful of the property. They cleared the area of all tree debris. It was interesting to watch how the team carefully brought down this diseased mighty Oak. It is a relief to know that the danger of it falling is no longer a concern. Will definitely use again for all my tree removal needs."

A crew of four came for the job in early morning; 1 climber + 3 ground crew. They were on site about six hours, took a large, very tall red oak tree down and also removed two large limbs from an adjacent oak equally as large. They were extremely adept in roping the sections down to the ground and managed to drop pieces skillfully unto a very small, tight section of the yard. I was amazed on how good and careful they were at their craft. The remaining stump is scheduled to be grinded by a separate team. The price Alvarado originally quoted seemed fair to me but they still lowered their estimate with additional discounts to my joy; I had obtained two other estimates that came in higher by other likewise reputable tree companies. We used Alvarado before about 8 years ago and were pleased to see the quality of their work has not diminished. Family owned, they are not the fanciest, but they have the skills, the right tools and equipment to do the job right.

"The detailed estimate was sent to our email within 2 hrs and they set up the tree pruning/removal for the next day.  The crew arrived on time and worked from 8:30 - 6:00 pm.   The team did all the pruning to our specifications and they brought down the very large, dual trunk poplar tree and it was rotten in the trunk and would have failed at some point in the near future.  Ferris Crilly identified the problem tree without our knowing we had a potentially hazardous situation on our hands.  The tree team that came to the house the day of service, left our yard as clean or cleaner than when they arrived, including removal of all tree debris, shavings and saw dust.  Our driveway was left in pristine condition and there was absolutely minimal damage to the lawn, when they brought down this monster tree.   We will use Pro Arbor tree Care for any future tree care!

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Aside from removing dead or diseased branches, you should prune your trees somewhere between every one and three years. Some people—particularly commercial farmers—prune their apple trees yearly to produce higher yields. This is the best way to promote tree health. That said, the average homeowner can get away with hard-pruning their mature apple tree every other year or every three years. 

The fastest ways to remove a tree stump are by grinding it or burning it.

Stump grinding is often the quickest method, with professionals able to chip away a stump and its roots within a single session. You have the option to hire a professional stump removal service or rent a stump grinder to do it yourself. However, it's important to note that these machines can be large, difficult to transport, and dangerous to operate without prior experience. For safety reasons, hiring a local arborist or landscape specialist is often recommended.

Burning is another fast option. Before you begin, check your local burn laws. The process involves drilling holes into the stump, filling them with vegetable oil, and waiting 24 to 48 hours. Afterward, you can add charcoal bricks to the surface and light the fire, which must be attended at all times.

For a more affordable but much slower alternative, you can use potassium nitrate pellets to accelerate the natural decomposition process. This method typically takes four to six months.

The best time to cut down a tree is during its dormant season, typically in winter or early spring, after all the leaves have fallen. Removing a tree during this period is advantageous for several reasons. Frozen ground helps secure the tree stump, protects the surrounding landscape from damage, and reduces the risk of the tree falling in an unintended direction. With the leaves gone, there is less risk of the tree's foliage getting tangled with other trees. Additionally, since this is often a slower season for tree services, you may be able to hire a professional at a lower rate. This dormant period is also the best time for tree trimming.

A tree branch should start to form roots in about three months. It can take about a year for a tree branch to develop roots strong enough to go in the ground. For best results, start several branches because, no matter how closely you follow instructions, they won’t all form roots. Compost any that aren’t thriving.

If you aren’t sure what you’re doing, be very careful when cutting mature tree roots (roots larger than 2 inches). Root cutting and pruning can affect both a tree’s stability and its ability to nourish itself. Issues during root cutting can result in damage or injury. 

It’s recommended you call in a pro to help, unless it’s a very small tree and you aren’t worried about the prospect of losing the tree.
