Outstanding work done by the crew that showed up on time and worked to clean up the significant amount of snapped off tree limbs and associated debris from the recent storm. Yard and street frontage also cleaned up. Highly recommend and will hire them again for other tree service!

Always on time, always responsive. Professional and pleasant. Plus he provided a show for the neighbors as two arborists are some 90 feet up removing and dropping the limbs and the trunk. Not for the faint of heart.

Arborist came and assessed the tree. As I assumed it needed to be taken down. Set up appointment for June. They called in May and asked if they could come early as they had time. Loved that! Did a fantastic job removing the tree. When they left there was only a stump, no leaves, no twigs,...

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The ideal time to prune a tree depends on the type of tree. Typically, late winter or early spring is a good time to prune but isn't always the case for "towering trees." It's best to trim when trees are dormant and before blooms appear but can vary depending on the tree type. It's always best to research the type of tree or ask a professional tree trimmer to determine when is the perfect time to prune your tree.

White vinegar does not kill ivy on trees because its acetic acid concentration is not high enough to overpower it. Vinegar is an effective herbicide for weeds and other plants, but not for the strength of most ivies, including poison ivy and English ivy. You should use an herbicide to kill ivy, such as one with glyphosate, imazapyr, or triclopyr.

Light-bark trees are most notorious for producing lots of sap when wounded. These varieties include maples, birches, poplars, dogwoods, magnolias, and elms, and they will bleed more when the trees are dormant. That’s why it’s a good idea to prune them in the summer months rather than waiting until winter.

Not every arborist climbs trees, but most will do so if that’s the best method for assessing or treating a tree. Arborists have a variety of tree climbing gear and safety equipment to choose from when climbing trees. Consult your local arborist about their tree-climbing plan if your service requires that type of task.

You can remove a small tree from your yard if there’s space for the tree to fall, you have the right tools and safety equipment, and you follow a clear plan of action. You’ll just want to follow the steps above carefully, and ideally, you will have experience doing similar tasks. If you have any doubts that you can do this project safely, though, you should hire a pro.
