"Rivetts Tree Service went above and beyond what I had imagined! I canâ t recommend them enough - and they will be our go-to tree service company from here on out! First off, I had not planned well for their arrival.. but before I could even get my shoes on, the crew were moving all our â lawn ornamentsâ (aka garbage cans, grills, lawn chairs, toys, and even heavy objects I wasnâ t able to move myself!) without complaint! Matter of fact, they were so easy to talk to - we were laughing together by the time it was cleared! When we hired Rivetts Tree Service, we had planned for the removal of a very large tree between lot lines. However, when I talked with the crew about my concerns/questions of removal vs trimming, they listened intently and were so so informative! After 20 minutes of us talking â treesâ (yes, 20 minutes!), we decided to trim the large tree (yay!!). They were so flexible with the change of plans - and Iâ m so grateful! Now, this is the cherry on top! After they had beautifully trimmed our large tree, I asked Justin (lead crew) for a quote of more tree removal/trimming on our lot. We walked around the yard for at least ten minutes! He diagnosed our plum tree, made winter plans for our oak, and gave info/opinions about my ideas. (Have I mentioned how great Rivetts Tree Service is?!) Once we decided on a plan, Justin tells me they will COME BACK (they were already loaded to head to another site!)- SAME DAY! Itâ s the day after having Rivetts Tree Service at our home, and I canâ t stop looking at our newly trimmed trees! I love them! Rivetts Tree Service is truly the best out there - they are informative, talented, courteous, go out of their way, and I very seriously had a great time learning from them! If you are in need of tree service, Rivetts Tree Service is the place! You will not be disappointed!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

For small trees, tree removal should take just a couple of hours to complete. Assume that a mid-sized tree will take between four and eight hours, depending on the extent of the equipment required and the health of the tree. Remember to add up to two hours for stump removal. Larger trees could take as long as one or two working days, about eight hours each.

There are four common ways to prune a tree correctly: crown thinning, crown reduction, crown raising, and crown cleaning. The method you choose depends on the purpose of pruning. However, making the correct cuts is a vital part of the process, regardless of your method. Pruning incorrectly can damage or even kill the tree. So, you may want to hire a professional tree-trimming company to tackle the task. 

Depending on the severity of the damage, a tree might continue healing for years after a split or a break. Saplings can usually bounce back in the spring in one or two seasons, but larger trees might take a few years to regain their former strength. If your tree is showing strong growth and is not dropping limbs, you can consider it healed after the first two seasons.

Trees don’t usually grow back after being cut down. Some particularly robust tree species may start sending up new stems from a stump to recover, but those stems won’t become a “tree” like before. Generally, trees don’t recover from being entirely cut down, which is why it’s important to be careful when making a decision. When you cut down a tree, it’s a good idea to make plans to remove the stump, even if it’s unlikely to grow back.

A tree can split because of high winds, a change in temperature, or from an infestation or tree disease. All of these factors can overlap, making a single cause difficult to pinpoint. While winter storms are some of the most common causes for a tree to split, it can also happen because of termites or rot.
