"They removed a huge oak that was looming near our house, making a surgical cut that preserved the viable part of the tree and protected neighboring trees that would have been destroyed if the oak had fallen. They also removed a smaller tree that was dying. They repaired dents in the yard and raked up all the debris. The team was efficient, courteous, and well-equipped--one of the hardest working crews we have employed."

"The Owner, Blake, is the person who answered the phone, listened to my needs and then arranged for an appointment to come out and look at what we wanted done. He was very honest, he listened and he made suggestions of what needed to be done. His personality is genuine and just a good person and a gem that you don't find too often anymore. And with his military background, you can expect clean, clean, and neat work and you would never know he was there. Very punctual and communicated with us on his arrival times and was very prompt and his team is A+ - all of the team was equally professional, courteous and respectful. I hired Blake because of the reviews that I read and I could not have been better pleased. If you are reading this review and need tree work done, I hope you call Blake after reading this and schedule him to come out. I guarantee you will make a friend with Blake and have a professional job well done. I have worked with many contractors and tree removal places thru the years and Blake and his team are just the best. His prices are spot on, but even beyond that, you don't hire just because of price, you hire because of the quality and trust that you form when you talk with him and see the work he has done and what he can do for you. Thank you Blake and team for a job well done. And whenever we need more work done, you are on speed dial."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

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 each tree is different, it’s impossible to say how long a dead tree can remain on your property. While it could be days, months, or even years, it’s highly likely that, at some point, the tree will fall. In the meantime, dying or dead trees can become a haven for pests, so it’s best to have them removed sooner rather than later.

There are a few instances in which removing a tree is the best option. You might do this if the tree looks to be a major danger—potentially falling onto your home, your car, or other parts of your property—or it’s diseased beyond repair. A tree that is growing too close to your house might need to be removed to prevent mold growth.

Trees don’t usually grow back after being cut down. Some particularly robust tree species may start sending up new stems from a stump to recover, but those stems won’t become a “tree” like before. Generally, trees don’t recover from being entirely cut down, which is why it’s important to be careful when making a decision. When you cut down a tree, it’s a good idea to make plans to remove the stump, even if it’s unlikely to grow back.

You should avoid cutting off the top of mature cherry trees. This process is called tree topping, and it’s not recommended for cherry trees—or any trees, for that matter. Tree topping removes between one-third to half of the length of the tree trunk, resulting in structurally unsound, fruitless suckers. The only exception is for saplings. Young pie, sour, and tart cherry trees that are over 30 inches tall in the fall or winter before the tree blooms can benefit from heading cuts.
