"Ryan and crew did a fantastic job. I hired them to cut down three small trees, remove dead branches from a large oak as well as trim low branches from several more trees. They did exactly what I wanted at a reasonable price. I will be hiring them the next time I need tree work done."

"I was searching for a tree trimming company with a trained/certified arborist and hit the jackpot. Elbert Holt, who was the company rep in our city was very forthcoming in evaluating my 100 year old oak. It lost some limbs via the 120+ mph winds during the derecho we had in Cedar Rapids, IA on Aug 10, 2020. I wanted to see if it would be harmed by pruning (months before the normal winter pruning season). Elbert reassured me that it would okay to clean up the few broken limbs to provide clean cuts to increase the likelihood it will survive this stressful experience. Their team of climbers did a great job of cleaning up my tree. Their skill and work ethic was fantastic to witness. They also did a huge project at my sisters house to remove limbs from the roof of her house and cutting down 4 trees : one of which was a large diameter (~ 56 in ) silver maple that was growing in between 2 houses. I was skeptical about this company since they were not â localâ . I received great personal reviews from others in town who used their services."

"I hired Stump Pros to grind my stumps and the work was far beyond what I expected . Not only was the professionalism at an all time high, the equipment was state of the art and as for the prices you won’t find a better comparison as I interviewed multiple companies and Stump Pros was the best. If you want a job well done…go with Aaron@Stomp Pros"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

On grafted trees, tree suckers will grow from the root stock, not the branches grafted onto it. Therefore, the leaves and characteristics of the suckers aren’t the same as the tree because they are different varieties. Root stock has more hardiness, strength, or drought tolerance than its grafted limbs, so if the suckers are from fruit or flowers, it might be different than the main part of your tree.

Completely topping a plum tree is a risky business. Cut too much, and you’ll kill your tree. That said, you do need to trim the top of your tree to encourage bushy growth, maintain your tree’s vase shape, and limit size. 

A plum tree's central leader (or trunk) should never extend more than 3 feet above the highest branch. When you first plant your tree, cut the central leader so it’s 2 to 3 feet tall. As it grows, cut it back 12 to 20 inches until it reaches its desired height. Never prune more than one-third of the new growth.

For trimming trees, your best tool is a pair of pruning shears or loppers. Both options work best for branches that are under 3 inches in diameter. Trimming trees with a larger diameter may require a robust tool like a small chainsaw or a handsaw, so take into account your tree’s diameter when deciding between tools.

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.

Professionals ensure safety, prevent property damage, and handle debris efficiently.
