"I hired grind pros to remove a stump in my front yard. It's a small front yard with a LARGE maple tree that had been an eye sore for years. Justin got it out of there in an afternoon with ease. He was extremely professional and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend grind pros for stump removal services."

"Christian Bros. Review In April we hired Christian Bros. Outdoor Services, LLC in Fremont to remove a 3 foot 3â  diameter x 65-foot-tall oak tree from our backyard. We had three companies quote the project with Christian Bros. being very competitive. Jay was our primary contact with Ben and two other men being the team that took down the tree. Safety for the workers and protection of collateral property was paramount and very obvious as Ben scaled the tree and took it down a branch and piece at a time. Everyone was very respectful to my wife and I and patient with us as we went back and forth with catering to family that wanted the wood, but were naà ¯ve to the scope of work to handle such huge logs. The reason we hired a tree rigger instead of the typical crane and bucket crew was because of potential damage to our yard and in-ground sprinkling system. Obviously, with the equipment needed to bring down and handle such a big tree some yard damage was inevitable. Divots and vehicle tracks are repairable with a little fill and grass seed. The best part of the experience was watching Ben take the monster down. He shimmied up the tree with large branches being let down on ropes. He was clearly a master of knots! We are very glad we hired Christian Brothers. Iâ  m a little jealous of Ben though, my wife really liked his English accent."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Late August, September, and mid-October are the ideal months for planting a young tree. However, the best time to plant a tree ultimately depends on when the weather transitions to fall-like conditions and eventually winter frost. As long as the hottest days of summer have passed and the ground hasn’t frozen yet, you can still successfully plant trees.

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.

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.

In the case that a tree is growing directly on your property line, the cost of maintaining the tree is shared and is the property of both owners in common. In this case, all decisions regarding the maintenance of the tree must be made jointly, and both parties must agree on a course of action. You will need to agree with your neighbor about the cutting of any roots before you carry it out, and your neighbor must also consult with you before doing any trimming. Coming to an agreement with your neighbor about any shared trees ahead of necessary trimming and maintenance will make this process much simpler.

Your neighbor is not in a good position to know if your trees are truly dead or pose any kind of danger. That’s why hiring an arborist or tree service expert can be such an important part of the process. If the trees are still alive and don’t pose any threat, you’re in the clear (but you may want to document and photograph everything in case events turn sour down the road).

But if a tree is visibly dead and near the property line, you should remove it to be safe. If a dead tree falls on a neighbor’s property, they may have grounds to sue for negligence. If any branches on trees have died, it’s a good idea to cut them back for similar reasons.
