"They met my expectations in cutting down one large tree, trimmed many branches off of another large tree and another smaller tree. They came back a few days later with a stump grinder to complete the job. I felt their price was reasonable for the amount of work that had to be done. I would definitely recommend Godoy’s Tree Service."

"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 FAQs, answered by experts

A serrated knife will work for cutting off small palm tree fronds, about 1 inch in diameter. For larger fronds, you will need pruning shears. You may also use a pruning saw, and if your palm tree is especially tall, an extended pole saw can help you reach the brown fronds around the trunk.

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.

You should prune ornamental trees once every other year after the fruit has matured and begun to drop. You should also prune out dead branches whenever you see them. Pruning too often can stimulate more growth, especially in faster growing varieties like Bradford pears.

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.

In some states and municipalities, you will need a permit to remove a tree on your property. In many cases where permits are required, a tree must reach a maximum height before a permit is required to remove it. You can either ask your local building department or a tree removal professional if you’ll need a permit. If you do, you can expect to pay between $50 and $150 for the permit alone. Your tree removal company should pull the permit for you and include the permit fee in your total.
