"The sales/estimate was great, the arborist was knowledgable and the estimate accurately included details of the job. The actual service was also great, the lead on the job met with me and reviewed the plan to ensure the pruning would be what was bit and expected. The crew was professional and cleanup was excellent. The price (with the Angies List discount) was on par with similar bids from companies with the same experience and arborists on staff. The only difficultly was with the scheduling post estimate. The estimate was given in January, but company could not commit to when the job would be scheduled (likely because of the their backlog). This is understandable, but we would have preferred to have been given a solid date at the end of their backlog; rather we were told we'll call a week before we can get you in. Given pruning oaks is a time sensitive service, this almost made us go with another company that could commit to a solid date."

"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!!"

"Todd was so easy to work with. Completely knowledgeable about trees as he is an arborist. He listened to what we wanted to get done and made suggestions based on his vast experience. He took notes as we walked around during the estimating process and when he and his crew came to do the work, we walked around again and talked through what needed to be done with every tree. His pricing was very fair and he and his crew worked very hard, effeciently and did an excellent job cleaning up all the debri from the trimming. Our yard is transformed from a very overgrown look to a beautiful park like yard. I would highly recommend 1-2 Tree to for any tree trimming or removal needs."

"A very bad storm struck our city and blew down a lot of trees all over the county.  I had 3 trees down and one
teetering dangerously over our house.  My husband was out of town.  I immediately started calling tree services from the
yellow pages and let them know my dilemma.  I was having to just leave messages at each of them.  "Reach's" owner called me back quickly and said that he, personally, would come over right away to assess the situation.  He agreed with me that this large limb needed to be removed quickly before someone, or my house, was hurt.  He quickly started working on it himself while he was waiting for the rest of his crew to help.  They ended up doing some other tree trimming while they were at it.  I think they got another 5-6 jobs from people watching and wanting them to do their yards too.  Everyone that used them were extremely happy!

Arborists questions, answered by experts

You can remove a small tree from your yard if there’s space for the tree to fall, you have the right tools and safety equipment, and you follow a clear plan of action. You’ll just want to follow the steps above carefully, and ideally, you will have experience doing similar tasks. If you have any doubts that you can do this project safely, though, you should hire a pro.

Transplanting a palm tree is a similar process except for a couple of important differences. First, their root ball doesn’t need to be as large as a “true” tree, which makes them a bit easier to dig up and move around. Second, they struggle more with taking root and staying upright in a new location, so it’s important to give them extra support when staking. 

It may be possible, but transplanting a large, mature tree can be a tricky project, and some trees handle it better than others. If you have a tree you need to save and are considering transplanting it elsewhere, we highly suggest calling a tree removal service and arranging a consultation to see what they say (and how much a full transplant would cost).

If you don’t cut down a dead, dying, or diseased tree, it can become a nesting place for pests like mosquitos, bees, beetles, wasps, fly larvae, and more. Some pests will live in the tree, while others will feed off the decaying wood. Unhealthy trees are also more likely to fall over, potentially injuring people and causing damage to your property.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.
