"AAA Tree Pros did an excellent job removing 2 diseased ash trees from our property. They offered a fair price, scheduled the work very quickly, and handled everything safely and professionally. The crew removed the trees, hauled away all the wood, and ground the stumps thoroughly. The cleanup was great as well. Very happy with the service and would definitely recommend them."

Customers say: True professional

"J&J offered a highly competitive bid to down three (3) very large, dead widow-maker oak trees at our residence, one as high as 80-ft tall. James and his two assistants arrived as promised, on time, and completed the entire job in less than one hour. They neatly stacked the cutup trunks aside (for our future fire-pit usage) like it was some feather-weight Legos kids' game! They also included cutting up previous dead-falls in the price. I highly recommend J&J to local homeowners, and in fact have forwarded their color ad-card to a relative's well-known construction business in Pequot Lakes. FIVE-STARS!"

Small jobs welcome

"​I recently hired this team for a tree removal project, and I couldn't be more impressed with the results. From the initial estimate to the final cleanup, the entire process was seamless. ​The pricing was incredibly reasonable—especially compared to other quotes I received—but the quality of work was top-tier. They arrived on time, handled the removal with impressive precision, and ensured the surrounding landscape remained untouched. ​What really stood out was their attention to detail during the cleanup. Once they were finished, you would hardly know a crew had been there, aside from the missing tree. It’s rare to find a service that balances such high-quality craftsmanship with fair, transparent pricing. ​I highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and professional tree care. I will definitely be using them again for any future needs!"

"Mike and his crew did a great job. We had 10 trees removed. They did everything they could to minimize damage to the lawn and the surrounding plants. They did the job quickly, efficiently and cleaned up like they were never there. After the stumps were removed they filled, leveled and put down seed. We will definitely hire them again and recommend them to our friends and neighbors."

"I wish you had a rating of 10 as this company was a Perfect 10. Robert (owner) first met with me to discuss the project. Robert was extremely helpful in answering EVERY question and concern that I had. I felt very comfortable that he understood what I expected and all was accomplished. Then there's his employees. Awesome job - very detailed and fun! I told them all I wanted to do was water the areas and watch the grass grow and that is what I am doing. 9 trees in 3 different areas were removed and several trees were cleaned up and look great. Thank you, 1st Choice Tree & Landscaping for helping me out!!!!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Not every arborist climbs trees, but most will do so if that’s the best method for assessing or treating a tree. Arborists have a variety of tree climbing gear and safety equipment to choose from when climbing trees. Consult your local arborist about their tree-climbing plan if your service requires that type of task.

Planting a palm tree close to your home can provide shade while elevating the beauty of your yard. However, there are a few safety concerns to consider before doing so. You’ll want to opt for a smaller tree with a non-invasive root system. Select a species that won’t grow too tall and choose a planting location that won’t damage your home.

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.

The best time to transplant a tree is when it is dormant. For many trees, this means either in the fall after the leaves have dropped (around October or November) or in early spring before new growth begins (around March). The ideal timing can depend on the type of tree. Deciduous trees do well when moved in early spring or fall, while evergreens are best transplanted in early spring or late summer. For example, pine trees are best moved in early fall, but maples prefer late fall. Avoid transplanting in winter, as the frozen or hard, cold soil poses a significant risk to the roots and prevents the tree from acclimating properly.

Finding a reliable arborist starts with researching specialists in your area and checking their licensing and certifications. Use online resources like the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to conduct research on each company. Next, contact the arborist and ask the following questions to see whether they are the right fit for your project:

  • Do you handle or specialize in dealing with the issue I’m having?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Do you have any third-party certifications?

  • What equipment and strategies do you plan to use?
