"I called at 8;30 am and a rep from Arbor Barber was out within the hour. The team showed up about an hour later and completed the work. The team was quick, efficient and left my yard like nothing had ever happened. Price was very reasonable. I would highly recommend Arbor Barber!!"

"After years of inconsistent and unsuccessful DIY lawn care, I decided to bring in the experts. Their fertilizer is custom mixed for our area and it proves to be worth every penny as my lawn looks new again. I will continue to use Total Turf for my lawn care, landscaping, and snow removal needs going forward and recommend them to anyone looking for the same"

"We couldn’t be happier with how our cabinets turned out. The team did an amazing job refinishing them—everything looks brand new. The finish is smooth, the color is perfect, and the attention to detail really shows. They were professional, on time, and kept everything clean throughout the process. Highly recommend."

"Overall great experience. They came on short notice since we were leaving town and the tree was diseased. They were careful with the removal since it was between my neighbor's house and mine. They were also a lot cheaper than other quotes I received. I highly recommend them."

"Dwight and his team at Arbor Tree & Lawn Services completely transformed my rental property. After nearly 15 years of tenant occupancy, the landscaping was severely overgrown and the house had almost disappeared behind trees and bushes. Dwight brought a vision, incredible knowledge, and a hardworking team. They trimmed trees, reshaped shrubs, rebuilt landscape beds, installed fresh mulch, planted flowers, and added beautiful boulders that made the property look like a model home. Neighbors constantly ask who did the work, and my wife says the landscaping now looks better than our own home. Dwight is professional, honest, resourceful, and goes far beyond what is expected. I have no doubt his work increased the value of my property. Highly recommended."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

Ideally, you should wait to prune until trees have gone dormant in late fall to early winter. The worst times to prune trees are early fall and late summer, as pruning them so close to dormancy makes it difficult for the tree recover before it goes dormant for the season.

While there is a lot of debate about whether boiling water is strong enough to kill tree roots, it is not best to remove the roots from large, old trees. You may be able to weaken young roots enough to remove them manually, but boiling water will likely not do the trick for large root systems.

In most cases, you should not use a pruning seal on trees after trimming. Applying a sealant can interfere with the tree's natural healing process, and it does not guarantee protection from pathogens. Instead of sealing the cut, the best practice is to support the tree's natural recovery by providing it with plenty of water and a dormant-style fertilizer. However, there are exceptions. Pruning seals may be recommended for very vulnerable species, like elm trees, in areas where dangerous diseases such as Dutch elm disease are prevalent. In these specific situations, the protection offered by a sealant can outweigh its downsides. For advice tailored to your situation, especially after cutting large branches, it is best to consult a local tree trimming professional.

You can start your search for a reputable arborist online by looking for professionals who hold the proper licensing and are fully insured. Next, read through some online reviews to see what kind of service the expert brings to the table, and confirm that they don’t have a history of complaints with the Better Business Bureau. Finally, you can ask the professional for a list of references and then call them to ask questions about the service, professionalism, value, and more that the expert brings to the table.
