"I cannot say enough good things about this company! They were everything an outstanding company should be - great communication, prompt, friendly, did an excellent job trimming our huge silver maple, and above-and-beyond on clean-up afterwards. Jose and his crew trimmed our silver maple which grows very near our house and next to our privacy fence. They cut off two large branches (2.5 ft in diameter), both which went over our rooftop. They did an exemplary job and without any damage to our roof, house, fence, and patio. If you are looking for tree service, I am confident you will not find a better company! We will definitely use 5hem again!"

"Seth and his crew respect the trees, the property and the customer. They did all of the work without having to drive any heavy machinery onto the property,, so the yard was not damaged at all. They had two guys up in the trees with chainsaws and two on the ground picking up and raking. When they were finished, the trees looked great. Not like they had been hacked up, but that they had been neatly trimmed. No more dead branches hanging and falling. Just very clean looking. I just bought this old House and have a lot of improvements to make, so I could not afford to get all of the tree work done at once. We are doing it in stages. I am planning to have them back to do more work on my property in the near future. I was very impressed with their whole operation!"

"I was so pleased with this tree service. In addition to removing 2 trees, 3 stumps were grinded. A tree was trimmed in the front yard; they even trimmed our hedge. A large pile of brush and limbs was removed from our backyard. They left the property looking much better than it did when they arrived. I would most definitely recommend these professionals for any tree work you need to have done. Thank you so much."

"Christian and Lupe have a great family business. They did everything on time and exactly what they said they would do and we are very pleased with the job they completed for us. We had a difficult area to take out a couple of trees where they could not use all of their equipment but they did exactly what we wanted and cleaned up very thoroughly. We definitely recommend Martinez Tree and Lawn Service for tree work."

"We had a great experience with Top Quality Tree and Lawn Service. We hired them to remove 3 trees from around our house. They worked quickly and did a great job. They even offered to re-hang our kids’ swing to a new tree for us. We will definitely hire them again if we need additional work done!"

"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."

"Several providers came to my house to assess the treatment of my very large ash tree, which had disease, as well as recent storm damage. The choice was to severely cut back the tree or to take it down. After much angst, my husband and I decided to take it down. Our decision of who to do the job was based on two things: time frame and price. Clark Tree Service dropped a quote in my mailbox for a trim. The price was excellent, but I wasn't sure exactly how much would be done. I had a tree service provider come later in the day to discuss my options. His price was competitive, and I liked the timeframe that he gave me. That said, I very much appreciate Clark's sending someone quickly. Would recommend."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Tree roots are hearty and complex systems, so they don’t die immediately after the rest of the tree is removed. If you leave the root system in place, it takes anywhere from two to seven years for it to run out of nutrients. It is worth noting, however, that the roots stop growing and expanding after cutting down the rest of the tree.

Costs depend on tree height, trunk diameter, removal complexity, and required equipment.

The cost of professional tree service, such as trimming, is $460 on average, but the price can range from $75 to $1,800. A more typical range is between $200 and $760. The final price depends on several factors, including the size and type of the tree. For example, trimming Crepe Myrtle trees costs an average of $80 to $400, while giant pine trees can range from $200 to $1,800. Other factors that influence the cost include the time of year, as services are often more expensive in the spring. Your location can also play a role; costs may be higher if you live in a remote area or if the tree is difficult to access. However, some professionals may offer a discount if you have multiple trees that need service.

If it’s only a smaller branch that has died and you’re keeping an eye on the tree, it’s probably nothing to worry about. But if other nearby branches start dying off as well, or a very large branch dies, then you likely have a bigger problem. It’s time to watch for diseases and other problems and possibly get professional guidance on how to proceed.

Unfortunately, palm tree stumps are one of the most difficult types to remove due to how their roots grow. Unlike other trees, palm tree roots grow horizontally and vertically. Palm tree roots grow as deep as three feet into the ground, although soil and growing conditions could mean they go as far as 50 inches into the earth. 

If you want to be able to repurpose the grass in the area where you removed a stump later, you’ll have to dig quite deep—and perhaps wide—to trim away all the roots.
