"This tree service was perfect and very professional. They were very personal and friendly! My neighbors were very impressed with the final change of my yard with over grown pine trees removed and low branches on other trees trimmed. I would recommend this tree service because of costs and great service."

They were easy to work with, professional throughout the entire process, and willing to stay within my budget. The crew was efficient and made the whole experience stress-free.

Customers say: True professional

"AAA was able to quickly handle an emergency situation with a large tree in my front yard. They arrived within minutes of being contacted and resolved the issue. Then they returned a few days later to complete the work that wasn't as urgent. They left my yard in great shape and picked up all of the chips, branches and twigs. Recommend."

"We have used TruFast Tree Service three times now. Right after we bought our house they came out and cleaned up a severely overgrown tree that was growing onto our roof and chimney. A couple years later we had them come out and just trim up that same tree and one in our front yard. And today they came out and cleaned out some conflicting branches and removed a dead limb off our front yard tree. Every time the workers are polite, professional, and know what they are doing. They do a great job and clean up any mess. I couldn't be happier with their service."

"the provider cut down several dead limbs, and also used a leaf blower to remove some maple debris from my house's roof.
he gave me a cost discount to make up for some previous work his company had done that was not quite to my satisfaction.

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

Aside from removing dead or diseased branches, you should prune your trees somewhere between every one and three years. Some people—particularly commercial farmers—prune their apple trees yearly to produce higher yields. This is the best way to promote tree health. That said, the average homeowner can get away with hard-pruning their mature apple tree every other year or every three years. 

Horticulturist is a broad term for any type of plant and soil expert. An arborist, meanwhile, specializes in all aspects of tree care. You should hire an arborist when you need assistance with tree-related tasks, such as pruning large trees, removing trees, diagnosing a sick tree, or emergency tree services. Horticulturists aren’t qualified to handle those types of tasks.

Most experts recommend removing a tree that has sustained more than 25% loss in the limbs, trunk, or circumference of the bark. Doing an initial trimming of damaged and dangling branches, but then waiting a few days of monitoring to decide how much more you might need to cut can help you better assess the total damage to the tree. However, consulting a tree maintenance pro to make this determination the best course of action before removing a tree.

An unsafe tree can cause serious damage to your home and property, so tree inspections are important to ensure your home isn’t in danger from a nearby tree. Unhealthy trees can also be unsafe trees, as diseases and insect damage can compromise a tree’s stability, leading to potential damage and safety risks.
