"I needed a tree removed and others pruned. These guys did an amazing job removing the tree and cleaning up the area afterward. It was like the tree was never there, and the area was undisturbed. Highly recommend calling Inspire Tree Experts for any of your needs!"
Prior to removal, the Tree was located close to the home.

"Godoy's Tree Service is a very experienced company that was very accommodating. They gave me a very fair estimate for the work, making some of the other estimates look ridiculous. Godoy's arranged for the required arborist to visit and report that my big ash tree should be removed. Then Godoy's applied for the work permit and 7 days later, a group of 6 workers removed my 2 trees and stumps in about 2-1/2 hours. Godoy's were very safe, very well organized and quick. They did zero damage to my property. They cleaned up after they were done. I've previously had trees removed and trimmed by other companies. I've watched other companies remove my neighbors' trees. In comparison Godoy's Tree Service are the best by far."

"I highly recommend this tree removal company! They were professional, punctual, and extremely hardworking from start to finish. The crew worked safely and efficiently, and the quality of their work exceeded my expectations. They took great care of my property, cleaned up everything before leaving, and made sure the job was done right. Their communication was excellent, the pricing was fair, and they were honest and reliable throughout the entire process. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, skilled, and truly cares about customer satisfaction, this is the company to call. I will definitely use their services again!"

"Very friendly, hardworking, helpful, and did a great job. Helped transform my yard from several years of neglect, and I am very happy with the results. Did weeding, mulching, tilling, tree trimming, edging, and probably more. Strong focus on trying to make sure I'm happy with the results and doing whatever needs to get done. Very easy to work with, and always showed up when he said he would. Look forward to working with him in the future"

"Mr. Duvall was professional, did very well with the estimate and everything was smooth with no complications. I hired Mr. Duvall twice and one of jobs he returned to finish a job. NO OTHER CONTRACTORS EVEN RETURNED AFTER BEING PAID IN FULL. Mr. Duvall is the only contractor that has been paid in full, returned and finished a job. No other contractors have done this! EVERY contract that has been paid in full has never returned to finish the work; other then Mr. Duvall. Duvall tree removal done amazing work! My neighbors love my yard, my tenant's neighbors love the yard and Mr. Duvall knows how to make a property look wonderful. I look for laborers and skill treads that I can hire often. I'd very happily hire Duvall Tree Remove for future work!!!!! Highly recommend Mr. Duvall's work and services!!!!!!"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Any tree that needs to be pruned should be pruned to remove dead branches at least once a year. You may need to prune far more often if you’re trying to maintain a certain shape or to save a tree that suddenly becomes infected.

Your local government is usually in charge of pruning trees on public property, and the power company is responsible for trees near power lines (even if they’re on your property). Whether or not they top these trees depends on their approach to pruning. You won’t be able to do much to control this, but you can contact them to find out more about their pruning process.

You can use a chainsaw, but it won’t remove the entire stump or root ball and is not a recommended method. It takes quite a bit of physical work to achieve and will likely dull or ruin your chainsaw. Instead, consider using salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, stump grinding, or burning to kill a tree stump. These methods allow you to kill a stump using minimal machinery and physical exertion.

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.

Some trees will bounce back just fine, and others will struggle and possibly die. Evergreens, for instance, have a very difficult time recovering after droughts and usually die after periods of extreme dryness. Usually, you’ll have to just wait and see—if the drought occurs in wintertime, it’s possible that your tree will recover during the gentler springtime.
