"Barker's has an experienced crew, including an arborist, and Steve and his crew (three) always asked me which larger branches I was comfortable or interested in removing. While I wasn't looking for the cheapest job price, it was competitive. Only one minor issue, was filling a hole in the trunk - it seeped out. Update 7-10-2018: the tree trunk hole wouldn't hold the foam filler, ants had infested the three combined tree trunks, so the tree was cut down. The price for the 40 ft maple with three trunks was reasonable; our only concern is the heavy lawn wear from the 4-wheel skid steerer used to haul the big branches and trunk sections from the back yard to the street, so the grass needs to recover. The stump grinding is still pending. Update 9-26-2018: grinding of two tree stumps was completed by Barker's on 8/28/18. Lawn repairs (sod/overseeding and fertilizer applications) have been made by the homeowner in mid-September for areas where tree removal and stump grinding was performed."

"Seth and crew from Ole Dad’s trimmed multiple large trees and removed one large tree in our yard. They arrived as scheduled, had excellent communication and knowledge and offered expert advice from an arborist’s view. They have excellent equipment and vehicles and all wore safety equipment. Their cuts are clean and professional work and cleanup was most appreciated. I can recognize a job done by Seth and his crew. Their work is superior. We are very pleased with how I yard in Stone Creek looks and the crew did excellent work at our daughter’s house in Lakewood. Tree trimming is expensive but Seth’s prices are reasonable."

"My daughter and her husband bought their first home and wanted to remove some trees for creating a yard and garden space. I took out the one that a large ladder could reach and cleared the fence of a LOT of brush. I piled this in the center of the backyard and looked at the tree, soft maple, that remained. I couldn't reach the branches and theorized about cutting steps into the trunk to achieve the goal. My daughter was not fond of my ideas. I was very happy to see that JC Garay and his crew were very prompt in getting the tree out as well as the MOUNTAIN of debris that I left. It is so glad to see professionalism is alive and well. Thank you!"

"We were amazed by the service we received from A&R Tree Service and Landscaping. Armando came out to discuss options and provide an estimate the morning after we spoke on the phone. His crew was out the same afternoon to remove a huge limb that had broken off our silver maple during the storm but was still in a dangerous position. The next day of good weather they returned to do trimming on three of our trees. Armando has a good knowledge of what is healthy and not healthy for a tree and also what can be done to try to reduce risk of property damage. His crew worked like a well-oiled machine. They had two climbers who were able to get into all the areas of our maples to trim things that other companies could not reach. They were obviously very experienced in roping off the large limbs and carefully lowering them to the ground, skillfully maneuvering them around our three power and phone lines. They cleaned up well, raking the entire area when they were done trimming. We look forward to using them again for any future tree and landscaping needs."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally, you do not have the right to take fruit from a neighbor's tree, even if the branches overhang your property. The fruit is considered the property of the tree's owner. While you may have the right to trim branches that cross into your yard, the fruit on them typically still belongs to your neighbor. However, laws can vary by state and municipality. In some areas, branches that extend into your yard or trees that straddle a property line may entitle you to some of the fruit. The best course of action is to speak with your neighbor, as they may be happy to share. If a conversation is not possible, check your local regulations before picking any fruit.

You need to remove all branches affected by Dutch elm disease. If your tree has several affected branches, you will probably need to remove the entire tree. First, consult a pro to be sure that you’ve correctly identified it as an elm tree. Make sure the tree is properly disposed of with a plastic covering or through debarking, chipping, or burning.

Since overwatering can harm mature trees just as much as a lack of water, it’s important to know the signs of an overwatered tree. If your tree’s leaves are yellowing, wilting, or dropping leaves, it’s likely that you’re overwatering. Other common signs include rotting, fungi, soggy soil, soft or peeling bark, falling leaves, and brittle roots. 

If you realize that you’ve been overwatering your mature tree, stop watering and give the soil time to dry out. Then moving forward, increase time between watering sessions. 

Most tree surgeons cost around $100 per hour or between $70 and $200 per hour for their services. You might get flat fees for more straightforward services, like a tree assessment, tree removal, stump grinding, and one-off treatments, but many times, treatments for tree diseases or pests will be charged based on an hourly rate or a per-visit rate. Since the cost of a tree surgeon can vary widely, it’s best to speak with an arborist near you to get an idea of what your particular issue will cost to correct.

Unless it’s dead or dangerous, think twice about cutting down a tree in your yard. They’re good for health, well-being, wildlife, and the environment. Plus, local authorities often have regulations prohibiting the removal of trees, especially protected species or individual trees with historical value.
