"I hired Sean from Bromley's tree service to take down 16 trees around my house. I cannot emphasize enough how satisfied I was with the work done by the Bromley team. They started on the day that they said that they would, got the job done and then more. They ended up doing 20 trees due to complications, but they delt with the situation on a very professional level. I had been really cold over the past few weeks, and it they came to work every day. On one day the weather was so bad that they could not come to work. The elevation at my house made it impossible to use some of the equipment, and thus Sean called and apologized for the conidiations and that they could not make it that day. Emphasizing good communications from Sean and his team. Sean and I walked the property at the conclusion of the project to ensure that I was happy with the work. I will hire them any day for a project.... in fact, my neighbor just did. Thanks Sean, great job!"

"I hired grind pros to remove a stump in my front yard. It's a small front yard with a LARGE maple tree that had been an eye sore for years. Justin got it out of there in an afternoon with ease. He was extremely professional and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend grind pros for stump removal services."

"So pleased with the job they did! Very professional. They completed the total job in one day (2 huge trees down and several trimmed up) but the best part was that they left the place spotless - no brush or debris left behind for us to clean up - even blew off the deck before they left. Highly recommend."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Transporting a fully-grown tree requires heavy equipment, typically specialized for the task. A tree spade is a truck-mounted tool that removes the tree from the ground in one location, transports it, and places it in a new hole in a new location. A combination of mechanized shovels and lifts is necessary to move very large trees, and the exact tools often depend on location and the surrounding area.

Often, it’s the homeowner’s responsibility to handle the aftermath when a neighbor’s tree falls on their property. But if a tree has been obviously dead for a significant period of time and caused damage when it fell, a case can be made that the owner should have removed it, especially if the neighbor wrote you a letter about the tree or asked you to take it down. This can be grounds for a successful lawsuit in claims court and is a good reason to always pay attention to your trees and remove dead trees before they fall.

If your palm tree has spots on the leaves, rotting buds, or is beginning to turn yellow, then you have a sick tree on your hands. You should contact a palm tree specialist to identify the problem and help treat the tree if possible. Preventing diseases and pests is key to a healthy palm tree, and it's essential to take action as soon as possible if your tree is showing signs of being sick.

You may wonder whether tree removal is tax deductible: Tree removal is not tax-deductible for homeowners unless it's related to a federally declared disaster. In that case, the cost may qualify as a casualty loss. However, if you own a commercial property, like a rental home, tree removal could be deductible if it's necessary for safety, maintenance, or part of a larger capital improvement project, and you must hire a professional tree removal service and keep documentation. Always consult a tax professional beforehand to see if you qualify.

Since each tree is different, it’s impossible to say how long a dead tree can remain on your property. While it could be days, months, or even years, it’s highly likely that, at some point, the tree will fall. In the meantime, dying or dead trees can become a haven for pests, so it’s best to have them removed sooner rather than later.
