"Had a few dead limbs over my roof and a big dead tree leaning towards my house I didn't want my house insurance going up when they fell on my roof and house. took three estimates from different companies 1 refused to do it, the other company wanted almost double what he quoted the work for. he was on time and got the job done same day after the other companies said two days minimum, he did an amazing job cleaning up the mess left over too my yard by the trees was cleaner after the job was done. Overall he exceeded my expectations and the next time I need tree work I know who I'm calling and to anyone who needs any tree work done around your yard or house trust me when I say call him first."

"Excellent service! They removed a large amount of leaves, branches, brush, and tree debris from my property and hauled everything away. The work was done carefully, and they left the yard spotless. I was impressed enough to hire them again the next day to mow my lawn, and that job was done beautifully as well. Professional, reliable, hardworking, and reasonably priced. I highly recommend them."

"I needed two problem trees removed from my property which were very close to the house. (actually over hanging the roof) High-Line Crane and tree service did an outstanding job removing these trees safely without any damage to my home, my property, or to themselves. A crane was essential for the success of this project. The dexterity and skill in which the crane was handled was impressive. The "climber" was so talented, and comfortable on the hook far above the ground. Every move was done with his safety first and foremost. His technic was exceptional, always taking care of his life saving ropes and bindings. His care of his climbing equipment was impressive. As they told me during the site clean up, "we like to leave the site as if we were never here" And they did and outstanding job at this as well. Im very pleased with High-Line Crane and Tree Service. Thanks Justin!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

No. Topping a tree refers to severely cutting down all its major branches and tree in a straight line. It was once recommended for streetside deciduous trees but has fallen out of practice. Topping leads to many problems, removing so much of the tree that many trees struggle to survive and become much more vulnerable to insects and diseases. Also, it doesn’t really help tree growth as once assumed and often leads to an ugly appearance of many sprouting stems in competition to become new main branches.

Palm trees are unique in that their roots don't grow straight down; they grow horizontally. Typically, palm tree roots go down between 12 and 36 inches deep. The roots grow far and wide from the base of the palm tree to absorb as much water and soil nutrients as possible. In addition, the horizontal roots are also very strong—keeping palm trees stable and helping them sway during storms.

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

According to scientists at Penn State University, spotted lanternflies do not typically kill the trees and plants they feed on, but they can cause branches and segments to die off. However, they have been found to kill cultivated grapes, which can have devastating consequences for vineyard owners and regions that heavily rely on vineyards to create jobs and generate revenue. They have also killed the Ailanthu altissima, known as the tree of heaven, though this is classified as a noxious and invasive weed tree.

Late winter is ideal, but if you’re pruning apple trees in the spring, prune them as early as possible in the season. You want to ensure your tree is just creeping out of dormancy and hasn’t started pushing out new growth. If you prune your tree too late into spring, you generally won’t see results until the following year.

That said, there’s no pruning season for unhealthy growth. Remove dead, dying, or diseased branches as soon as you notice them, regardless of the time of year.
