"

Was contacted by one of the crew on a Saturday while they were working in the neighborhood. Since we had planned on having the tree work done, we indicated interest. Later Chad stopped by and we walked around the yard and decided what needed to be done and the price. The price was certainly competitive and very much in line with work we had done several years ago and the large amount of work this time.

Scheduled the work a couple of days out.  They completed the trimming and tree removal exactly as promised, and the removal of an enormous amount of branches and trees took about  six and half hours. It was a big job that included significant trimming to six large trees and complete removal of two. The trimming included one extremely large ash that hung over the house and removing a huge spruce that was way too close to the house.  All went perfectly. The crew has a small tracked "grabber" that dragged all the debris to the front yard where it was shredded. The clean-up was perfect - not a branch or leaf was left after they were through.

The crew was professional, personable and courteous. Our trees look great now!

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

Hiring an arborist or tree surgeon is usually more expensive than a standard tree company, but it is often worth the investment. Arborists have education and certifications that standard companies typically lack, leading to a more professional, expert-level service. Their expertise is particularly valuable for diseased or infested trees, as they can ensure safer removal and help prevent the issue from spreading. Additionally, arborists may be necessary for work near power lines, as uncertified companies are often not permitted to service these trees. If your goal is to preserve the health of your trees, an arborist is the best choice. Their services, such as stump grinding, are also performed with greater expertise to ensure a safe depth that won't cause your lawn to collapse over time.

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.

If executed correctly your tree should survive after being transplanted to a new spot. However, effective transplanting requires six months, careful root pruning, safe transport to the new location, and replanting in prime soil conditions. You’ll also need an appropriately sized root ball for a complete tree transplant. A good rule of thumb is that, for every inch in diameter, your tree’s root ball needs to be around 11 inches. So a tree with a diameter of six inches needs a root ball of approximately 66 inches.

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.

Poison oak is similar to poison ivy in that it's in the same family of plants. Poison oak is identifiable by its rounded-off leaves and hairy leaf texture. Tree-climbing varieties live primarily in western states while low-growing poison oak bushes occupy the eastern states. Treat poison oak like poison ivy to get rid of it permanently.
