"Robert and his crew at Inspire Tree Services are efficient, conscientious, knowledgeable and great at all things tree related. I've had multiple trees (dead, dying and alive but dangerous) removed by them and have never had any issues with workmanship or clean up afterwards. My neighbors asked for their details after seeing what they accomplished, and hired them too, they were so impressed. Would not hesitate to use them again."
Prior to removal, the Tree was located close to the home.

"Ruben's Tree Services did an incredible job. We hired them to cut down our tree and grind the stump. They were outstanding proffesionals who did a fantastic job. The tree was in my backyard and hung over the house and shed so it was a difficult job and they made it look easy. They did a great job cleaning up as well. If you need work done at a reasonable price, I would highly recommend them."

"Godoy's Tree Service is a very experienced company that was very accommodating. They gave me a very fair estimate for the work, making some of the other estimates look ridiculous. Godoy's arranged for the required arborist to visit and report that my big ash tree should be removed. Then Godoy's applied for the work permit and 7 days later, a group of 6 workers removed my 2 trees and stumps in about 2-1/2 hours. Godoy's were very safe, very well organized and quick. They did zero damage to my property. They cleaned up after they were done. I've previously had trees removed and trimmed by other companies. I've watched other companies remove my neighbors' trees. In comparison Godoy's Tree Service are the best by far."

"We needed trimming of a honey locust and a magnolia. Both trees are very important to the aesthetic of our property. Moe came out to the property to look at trees and was very attentive as we discussed what we wanted and didnâ t want. He gave us his thoughts on what would be best for the tress both now and down the road. The conversation with Moe was much more thorough and detailed than with any other companies and I appreciated that. His knowledge and confidence in his planned approach was apparent. The process of receiving and accepting the quote was quick and seamless. Moe kept in touch while we waited for availability which was less than two weeks. On the day of the work, Moe showed up on time with this assistant for the day and go to work. Even though he had a good idea of what we wanted, he checked on throughout the day. He was very conscientious to not trim more than we wanted or to not trim an amount that would be detrimental to the trees. I am pretty sure that I didnâ t hear a chainsaw all day. Everything was done by hand. Moe finished on time and the trees look great. Exactly what we wanted. I highly recommend Moe if you want a high level of care taken with your tree trimming job"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

A general rule is that trees need 10 gallons of water for each inch of the tree’s diameter. For large trees, that can amount to approximately 160 gallons of water or more. Watering big trees to this extent can take quite a bit of time using a hose. For this reason, you may consider installing a soaker hose or sprinkler system to make the job easier.  

DIY pruning is possible for small trees and shrubs with basic tools. However, for larger trees, more hazardous removals, or to ensure proper pruning techniques are used, it is recommended to hire a professional for safety.

There are several methods to hollow out a tree stump, and the best one depends on your tools, experience, and priorities. Common methods include using a chisel and hammer, a chainsaw, or burning.

  • Chisel and Hammer: This is often considered the easiest approach for those with limited tools or experience, though it is the most time-consuming.

  • Chainsaw: Using a chainsaw is the fastest method, but it comes with significant safety risks, especially for inexperienced users.

  • Burning: This can be an effective method, but it is not recommended unless you can first drill holes into the stump. Without holes, the stump will be difficult to light and may not burn completely through.

A power drill with at least a ⅜-inch diameter bit can make the job quicker and easier, regardless of the primary method. While you can use a chisel or chainsaw without a drill, it will require more time and effort. Always wear protective goggles and thick gloves, as splinters are an inevitable risk.

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.

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.
