" Recently hired High-Line Tree Service to remove two massive, hard-to-reach trees from my property—and I couldn’t be more impressed. From start to finish, their team was professional, efficient, and incredibly skilled. These weren’t easy trees to take down, but they handled the job with precision and care, making a tough task look effortless. What really stood out was the cleanup. They left the area spotless—no stray branches, no sawdust trails, just a clean, clear space where two giants once stood. Their pricing was more than fair, especially considering the complexity of the job, and every crew member I interacted with was friendly, respectful, and clearly committed to doing great work. If you’re looking for a tree service that combines expertise with excellent customer care, High-Line Tree Service is the one to call. Highly recommended!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

If you aren’t sure what you’re doing, be very careful when cutting mature tree roots (roots larger than 2 inches). Root cutting and pruning can affect both a tree’s stability and its ability to nourish itself. Issues during root cutting can result in damage or injury. 

It’s recommended you call in a pro to help, unless it’s a very small tree and you aren’t worried about the prospect of losing the tree.

Typically, arborists charge between $100 and $350 per hour. The amount an arborist charges depends on several factors, such as the type of tree inspection, the number of trees, and accessibility. The price can also depend on whether you are working with an independent arborist or a larger tree service company. When hiring an arborist, you should consider their experience, insurance coverage, and fees.

In most cases, your neighbor is responsible for roots from their tree that cause damage to your property. If your pavement, the foundation of your home, or a fence is damaged by roots from a neighbor’s tree, you likely will have legal recourse for financial relief. While it’s better to notify your neighbor of any problems you notice as soon as they arise to avoid costly damage, there are some instances where filing a civil suit is your only recourse. Your homeowner’s insurance company might wish to do so on your behalf if you file a claim.

A grafted tree is a tree grown by combining two trees. It takes expertise. Branches from grafted trees don’t grow strong roots. Save yourself the time and frustration by having an arborist help you with this advanced project.  

You can often tell if a tree is grafted because it will have a noticeable line. Above the line, the bark will look different than it does below the line. It’s most common with fruit trees.

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.
