"From my first visit with Arborist Jason through their completion of cutting and removing nine trees on my property and several more on my neighbor's property in addition to tree trimming, it was professional and first class throughout the process. What I saw was a company that just doesn't drop trees; they remove them with care and safety in mind. The entire crew was friendly and the equipment they use, starting with their huge crane to get at those tall and difficult location trees, was without a doubt one of the most impressive sights I've witnessed. The whole neighborhood seemed to come out and watch. It was pure "Art". Simply put. Timber Falls is Top Notch. I definitely was very impressed. And, No! I'm not getting anything for writing this review. This is simply sharing information about a company I was very happy with. Get a quote from them and experience the professionalism yourself. You won't be disappointed."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

No, you should never top maple trees. Topping injures the tree and leads to the rapid growth of a weak canopy, which can be hazardous to rooftops and utility lines. Removing the crown can also leave the interior bark vulnerable to sun damage, leading to insects and disease. A topped tree can also reduce property value and permanently damage the appearance of a tree.

Leaving the tree stump and letting it rot is never a good idea, as this leads to insect infestations and other frustrations. Additionally, decomposing trunks are at risk for diseases that spread out to the remaining plants and trees in the yard, thus ruining your whole outdoor aesthetic. It's usually best to remove the stump at the same time you remove the tree.

The safest way to cut down a tree is to make sure you’re completely prepared and have done all the necessary safety checks, including double-checking your equipment is in good working order, you have plenty of clearance to fell the tree, you’re wearing all the safety gear, and you have a partner to help you (who should also be wearing safety gear). 

Make sure the tree roots soak around a day before you dig the tree up for the transplant. Keep the roots wet while the tree is above ground. After the transplant is finished, provide consistent water every day for the first month or so. You don’t want to overwater the tree, but you do want to keep the roots wet so they can thrive in their new environment.

Pruning trees during the summer can be a bad idea because the new growth will take place during the hottest months of the year, which can stress your tree out. Similarly, pruning during the early fall can be a bad idea, too, because you’d be stimulating new growth when most trees are aiming to go dormant. 

Pruning recommendations will vary by the type of tree, but generally, waiting until winter to prune your trees is a good idea.
