"I had four trees removed, two dead trees and two unhealthy trees, The largest was a Norway maple with multiple trunks risking collapse and overhanging the garage and the neighbor's house. Other estimates came in a little cheaper but I did not trust their explanations for how to take down the Norway maple safely. Zuhlke tree is first class in customer service, workmanship, professionalism. I would definitely hire them again, and recommend them."

"I can't say enough about my experience with this business. Prompt,professional, polite...I can't say enough good things...the crew came in and pulled off what seemed impossible with the efficiency of a well greased machine. They got the job done and cleaned up everything. I've owned 12 homes and have lots of services over the years and this is easily the best encounter ever...Kevin and the team are better than great. I'm old and was treated so fair and square...that isn't always the case. I can't say enough good things...I shouldn't have worried so much and you shouldn't either if you go with this company. Finally...the cost was SIGNIFICANTLY LESS than the other two quotes I got....ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC."

"Robbie is great, he did excellent work and went above and beyond to make sure everything was done perfectly in terms of timeliness, quality, and cleanup. He also had very reasonable pricing compared to two other tree services. He is courteous and conscientious, a great combination that is something every homeowner likes to see from someone they hire. He and Bob cleared 7 trees for us, they left small logs for us for firewood, cleaned up the entire yard and even the roof afterwards. They also filled in all ruts in the lawn that were unavoidable given the work performed. I really can't recommend his company enough!"

"Apex has recently purchased crane equipment for large tree removal and removed more than 10 large trees that were close to my home. The team did an amazing and very fast job. They were organized, thoughtful and cleaned up after the job very well. Mr Child met with me several times before the job and kept good communications through the two days of intense work. I highly recommend this company, especially if you have large trees to remove close to buildings and around wires. ."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

You can trim just one side of the tree, especially when that side is growing near something like a power line or a home. Pros will carefully trim the tree back until it is safe from that structure. While this is common, it also needs to be done with the utmost care, as pruning or trimming away at one side of the tree may make it structurally unsound. This instance is yet another where hiring a pro is wise, especially if power lines are involved.

Though summer is not ideal, you can do some light pruning during this time of year. Just make sure it’s not excessive. Vigorous pruning will stress the tree and impact next year’s growth. Generally, August to September are the best summer-pruning months, particularly for fruit trees.

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.

A tree can grow back from its stump, but full regrowth is unlikely (especially for more stubborn conifer trees). Instead, trees are more likely to send up a number of shoots from the dead stump, which will try to develop into primary stems over time. In other words, it will start to look increasingly bushy. The goal of killing and drying out a tree stump is to prevent that from happening, as well as make the stump easier to completely remove.

You can find pruning paints and sealants for trees, but you shouldn’t use them on a topped tree. Coatings like these often inhibit the tree’s healing process. An important exception is if there are dangerous fungi nearby that the tree is particularly vulnerable to, like oaks and oak wilt. Sealing cuts can help prevent fungi from taking root.
