"Efficient, fast, and doesnâ  t overcharge! Had some limbs touching my electrical line and needed them cut to keep my home insurance. I called Tree 53 and Cal was out that day to take a look. Just an all around good guy who knows what heâ  s about. He was back early the very next day to trim the branches and even left me neat piles of wood for my fire pit! I wish all my home improvements were this quick and easy! 11/10 would hire again. Thank you!"

"Excellent job. He does my lawn mowing weekly. Always goes above and beyond to do whatever needs to be done. He always removes leaves in fall and cleans snow from my driveway in winter. I have had problems with bugs on my plants this year and he took care of that. Very knowledgeable in his field of work. I would highly recommend him !!! He goes above and beyond to make sure job is to your satisfaction!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Your local government is usually in charge of pruning trees on public property, and the power company is responsible for trees near power lines (even if they’re on your property). Whether or not they top these trees depends on their approach to pruning. You won’t be able to do much to control this, but you can contact them to find out more about their pruning process.

Most plum trees are pruned into a vase or open wine glass shape. They’ll have a shorter central leader (the trunk) that supports three to four main branches. Of course, this isn't always the case. If you have a European plum tree, you can grow it in a pyramid shape. Let the central leader extend the length of the tree and prune smaller branches to create the pyramid.

You should not trim an oak tree in the summer. Oak trees are especially susceptible to disease, and open tree wounds are an invitation for beetles that carry tree-killing fungus. If there’s no risk that the oak tree will do damage to your property or hurt someone, it’s best to save the trimming for fall or winter. If you can, seal the wound with latex to prevent fungus from getting inside.

For Bradford pears, damage from storms is common, and if the trunk splits, it can pose a danger to people and surrounding structures. The best thing to do in that instance is to have the tree removed. If there’s only minor damage to the branches, pruning away the damaged parts is the first order of business. You may also want to consult a professional arborist to make sure the tree is healthy.

Whether you should remove the roots of a dead tree depends on whether they’re damaging nearby areas. For instance, if the roots continue to grow near sidewalks, driveways, or the foundation of your home, they can cause damage. If you want to plant something else in that spot, removing the roots can make it easier for the new tree or plant to grow.
