"Eric did a great job with the tree removal at my home… I have actually had him come back a few times for multiple jobs. He was very professional and provided top quality service. Quick to come by and quote the job, and fit me in his schedule pretty quickly! I would recommend him to anyone needing quality tree service!"

"I had 3 trees cut down, the stumps removed, plus a few older stumps taken out at the same time. The job was done as promised, on time and for a fair price. Adam the owner was very responsive and great at answering questions. They cleaned up after cutting the trees down and came back a few days later to remove the wood chips from the stumping and even reseeded the grass where needed. I could not be happier with how it looks."

"Pedro was timely with his estimate and he offered a fair price to do the work. He and his crew showed up on time and did the job: took down one large tree, and trimmed two others. Took care to clean up afterwards and brought topsoil to fill in a few holes in the neighbor's yard from falling limbs. Pleased with their work!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

Whether you should remove the roots of a dead tree depends on whether they’re damaging nearby areas. For instance, if the roots continue to grow near sidewalks, driveways, or the foundation of your home, they can cause damage. If you want to plant something else in that spot, removing the roots can make it easier for the new tree or plant to grow.

Some people prefer to leave or even carve a leftover stump, but we recommend removing it if possible. You can often dig out smaller trunks with a shovel once they have died and dried out. You can have stumps professionally removed, or request a service to grind them down to ground level so they can be replaced with other landscaping or objects.

You should plant trees at least 15 to 20 feet away from your house, and more if the tree will grow large and spread its limbs. Trees pose several dangers to houses when planted too close. They can litter the roof with leaves and branches, create fire hazards, make a ladder for larger pests, and even damage the foundation as their roots grow.

Though summer is not ideal, you can do some light pruning during this time of year. Just make sure it’s not excessive. Vigorous pruning will stress the tree and impact next year’s growth. Generally, August to September are the best summer-pruning months, particularly for fruit trees.
