"I had 4 basswood trees that were cut down but I needed the stumps to be removed. Bill came and assessed for me and also saw I had an older oak tree stump as well. He was able to give me a very reasonable quote and did a great job! He also offered me top soil and to seed it so the job was actually complete. I’ll use them again for sure."

"AWESOME work, well beyond my expectations. Three phase project after cement landscape curbing was installed. They installed grey trap rock and refreshed existing rock beds, installed Cypress mulch and added to existing boulder rip-rap rock along a pond. Professional, courteous, graciously worked with my timeframe. Mariano was a pleasure to work with, his entire crew very hard working. They took meticulous care of my property. I highly recommend Romero Landscape and Tree Service with NO reservations. If you hire them, you won't be disappointed."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Tree removal can be quite expensive, especially for larger projects, but you can use the following tips to help keep costs down:

  • Do the yard cleanup afterward yourself

  • Choose to leave the logs on your property and split them yourself

  • Opt to leave the stump in the ground and tackle stump grinding yourself

  • Pull permits for tree removal, if necessary, to avoid fines

  • Pay to have multiple trees removed at once

  • Remove tree in the late winter or early spring during off-season

If a tree isn’t pruned, it can inhibit proper growth and fruit production, cause damage to both the tree and your property, and create entry points for pests and diseases. Pruning a tree enhances its stability, appearance, shape, and growth. Pruning trees regularly can also save you money long-term by avoiding overgrown or dangerous dying trees.

Aside from removing dead or diseased branches, you should prune your trees somewhere between every one and three years. Some people—particularly commercial farmers—prune their apple trees yearly to produce higher yields. This is the best way to promote tree health. That said, the average homeowner can get away with hard-pruning their mature apple tree every other year or every three years. 

Some trees, such as silver maples, birches, sycamores, and scotch pines, shed their bark naturally. If your tree is not one that does this, it might have fallen prey to pests, fungi, or diseases. It could also simply be suffering from an extreme weather change, such as a snowstorm or heat wave. If you’re still stumped, consulting with a pro can help you diagnose your tree’s specific problem.

Yes, healthy and well-placed large trees can boost property value by an average of 3% to 15%. They improve curb appeal, offer energy savings through shade and wind protection, and are often considered by appraisers during home valuation. On the flip side, removing dead or hazardous trees can also increase value by eliminating safety risks. For the biggest return, choose low-maintenance, native species that thrive in your climate.
