"Had 9 messy poplars to take down. The team took down the trees, cleaned every bit of mess up, and left the logs behind(as i asked them to), neatly stacked. VERY IMPRESSED with the quality and speed in which the project was completed. Would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone looking for quality tree work done."

"Seriously, KB Tree is excellent. We had them take down several trees that were leaning toward our house - before they could do any damage this winter with heavy snow or ice. After a prompt estimate, the crew was here within a week and made quick work of it in under a couple of hours. Super professional. They left everything we wanted in neat piles and hauled off the rest. They even used a blower to clean up the debris. Hardly a trace that they were even here. I would use them again in a heartbeat and canâ t recommend them enough!"

"I found ER Tree Service through Angi. After speaking with two other contractors, I decided to hire ER Tree Service based on price and responsiveness. It was a great decision! They arrived on time, completed the job very quickly and professionally and were very considerate of my existing lawn and structures (taking down a very large tree can cause potential problems but ER Tree Service was very professional). I'd highly recommend ER Tree Service!"

"My yard was an overgrown mess of a jungle. Derrick came in, gave me a very reasonable quote, explaining everything he was going to do. He was true to his word. The work he did was pretty amazing. My yard has been reclaimed and he is now my yard guy for all future work. You can’t go wrong with Derrick and Poland Property Management!!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Sudden oak death and oak wilt are different diseases. Oak wilt first shows up in tree leaves while sudden oak death affects the branches and trunk. However, as symptoms in both can overlap, it’s best to consult a professional arborist tree expert for a proper diagnosis and development of a treatment plan.

You may be looking to identify maple trees to use for home improvement projects. In that case, you can tell hard maples by looking at their leaves. Leaves will have a U-shaped dip, or sinus, between the points, or lobes, of the leaves. Leaves of soft maples tend to have V-shaped sinuses.

If you already have the cut wood in front of you, look for a light, uniform color to identify hard maple wood and check for variations of red, gray, or brown streaks and an overall darker color in soft maple wood.

Hiring an arborist or tree surgeon is usually more expensive than a standard tree company, but it is often worth the investment. Arborists have education and certifications that standard companies typically lack, leading to a more professional, expert-level service. Their expertise is particularly valuable for diseased or infested trees, as they can ensure safer removal and help prevent the issue from spreading. Additionally, arborists may be necessary for work near power lines, as uncertified companies are often not permitted to service these trees. If your goal is to preserve the health of your trees, an arborist is the best choice. Their services, such as stump grinding, are also performed with greater expertise to ensure a safe depth that won't cause your lawn to collapse over time.

Trees should be pruned every two to five years, depending on its age and type. Young trees should be inspected and pruned every two to three years. Mature trees should be inspected and trimmed every three to five years, and fruit trees should be pruned annually with a careful eye on seasonal growth. Evergreens typically don’t need pruning, unless branches or limbs are damaged, diseased, or harboring pests.

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.
