"I NEVER write reviews, but Jim and his crew deserve a huge shout out! I had 12 large pine trees, most within 10 feet of my home. The crew did an AMAZING job removing the trees, as well as the cleanup afterward. Jim gave me a very fair and reasonable price. He and his crew were super friendly, polite and very professional. I would HIGHLY recommend this company. These guys were PHENOMENAL!!"

"Superb job removing the trees trees close to residences. Some of the trees close to buildings were taken down expertly and safely. The cleanup was thorough and efficient. Jim and his crew showed up when agreed upon and the price was very reasonable for the scope of work done. The climber they brought in to handle the larger trees was obviously experienced. Jim, Ryan, Jeff and Nate at Red Oak Forestry did an excellent job!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Generally speaking, you’ll want to avoid flush cuts, which are cuts made as extremely close to the trunk or main branch. These cuts can weaken your tree, lower its natural defense mechanisms, and even cause decay. You’ll also want to avoid tree topping, which is the total removal of the leader and upper main branches of a tree. 

Most pros will advise against either of these methods, which is why hiring a pro is often the best choice when it comes to tree trimming.

No, you cannot throw branches from your neighbor’s tree back into their yard, nor can you discard leaves or other plant matter that originated from their yard back over there if it happens to land in your yard. You are responsible for cleaning up plant matter that made its way into your yard.

The best tools for tree removal include a chainsaw for large trees, an ax for notching and cutting down small trees, and a wedge to help control the direction a tree falls in. A hatchet can be useful for very small trees, but won’t be effective for medium to large trees. 

Most experts recommend removing a tree that has sustained more than 25% loss in the limbs, trunk, or circumference of the bark. Doing an initial trimming of damaged and dangling branches, but then waiting a few days of monitoring to decide how much more you might need to cut can help you better assess the total damage to the tree. However, consulting a tree maintenance pro to make this determination the best course of action before removing a tree.

Carefully pruning small roots no thicker than three inches in diameter won’t harm the tree. However, cutting larger roots may impact the tree's stability and nutrient absorption. It's advisable to consult an arborist or tree care professional to evaluate the root's size, the tree's health, and the potential impact of cutting. Proper tree pruning techniques and timing can minimize damage, but larger root removal may necessitate expert guidance to avoid compromising the tree's overall health and stability.
