"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."

"We bought a home with a badly neglected pear tree in dire need of pruning and I had no idea how to proceed. Angie’s List sent my info to several providers and Dan from Tree Pirates was the first to call. He asked what I wanted from the tree (higher fruit yield or esthetic shaping) and I said yield. He told me of his experience, made recommendations and I hired him to come the following day. He arrived on time, we examined the tree together and decided what limbs to remove. Half way through he asked me to check the progress to see if it was what I wanted, finished in a timely manner considering the amount of work. Dan then took the severed limbs down to our “wood pile” to be shredded and cleaned up the area. In addition to the pruning, Dan gave me advice on spraying the tree and fertilizing, making recommendations and explanations for each. The tree will need further pruning next year and I will be calling Tree Pirates once again. Than you, Dan."

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

A standard tree removal doesn’t include stump grinding. If you want your contractor to remove your tree and grind the stump, you must pay an extra charge. That said, you’ll likely save on the cost of stand-alone service—especially if it’s a small tree and they can finish both jobs in a single trip.

An unsafe tree can cause serious damage to your home and property, so tree inspections are important to ensure your home isn’t in danger from a nearby tree. Unhealthy trees can also be unsafe trees, as diseases and insect damage can compromise a tree’s stability, leading to potential damage and safety risks.

In general, trees should be planted no closer than 15 to 20 feet from your foundation. For larger trees with far-reaching roots like maples, oaks, or poplars, a good guide is to plant as many feet from your home as the tree’s height is expected to reach at maturity. Some trees, like elms and willows, should only be planted far from where their roots may encounter sewer or water lines.

The best plan of action for an unhealthy or unsafe tree will depend on its condition. An arborist can recommend whether trimming or removal is the right call for your tree. Preventive tree trimming can keep trees safe and healthy, so make regular tree trimming a part of your yard maintenance plan.

Unfortunately, if you cut the top off a palm tree, it will die. Instead of budding or branching out, the top begins to slowly rot. That's why having a professional tree trimming at least twice a year is a good idea. If you don’t have experience with trimming your palm tree, you might accidentally cut the top off, leaving a dead and rotting tree in your wake.
