"Midwest Tree Surgeons did a great job of removing a 60 year old sweet gum tree in our backyard. No damage was done to a chain link fence directly below one side, and they even relocated two, heavy, concrete bird baths until they were finished. The owner, Christian, is a licensed arborist and actually did all of the climbing. He even returned today, a Sunday, to remove chips left from the stump grinding. My only complaint was the ruts left in the lawn from their tractor tires. This company gave us the lowest bid, and I have already referred them to a friend."

"Amazing communication, professionalism, and price. Trained arborists made short work of the job. They artfully worked around dangerous obstacles without incident or delay, taking the extra time to leave the work area cleaner than they found it. I was very impressed. The crew was not at all intimidated by navigating obstacles in the city. I will definitely be calling Baumann again for future jobs."

"Mr. Baumann was relatively punctual in responding to my phone call for an appointment (given that it was summer and a prime season for tree work). He came out to the house within a few days, assessed the work, gave the price and estimated when the team would be out to do the work. His crew was very efficient, did exactly as planned and cleaned up completely. We were very satisfied with the entire experience. They even trimmed so that the remaining branches on our side were rather artfully cut --- not an electric company straight line."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

You can shape a cherry tree by trimming vertical branches, dense branches, and intersecting branches. Your personal aesthetic comes into play, as well. If you want to simply thin and shape the tree, you can get away with trimming the aforementioned parts of your cherry tree. If you want to shorten branches, however, consider thinning cuts, which alter the length of the branches while encouraging light penetration, new buds and shoots, and a structurally-sound shape.

The depth of tree roots depends on the species. Trees like oaks and maples can have root systems that grow down 20 feet or more. However, trees that grow in shallow soils will have roots that go only a few feet down. Research how your tree species grows in your climate area to estimate root depth.

While trees can grow in the curb strip between the sidewalk and the street, this placement often poses the problem of interfering with overhead power lines. It’s best to consult your local utility provider and tree planting service before transplanting a tree that might grow into power lines. Also, you should never work within 20 feet of a live power line to avoid the risk of electric shock. Tree branches should never touch nearby power lines, so it’s essential to ensure your tree isn’t in danger of growing too close to them.

A general rule is that trees need 10 gallons of water for each inch of the tree’s diameter. For large trees, that can amount to approximately 160 gallons of water or more. Watering big trees to this extent can take quite a bit of time using a hose. For this reason, you may consider installing a soaker hose or sprinkler system to make the job easier.  

If tree branches cross well into your property line, in many cases, these branches become part of your property, and you can trim them up until your neighbor’s property line. However, this issue will vary based on local ordinances, so you should do your research before making any decisions. Better yet, speak with your neighbor about how to handle any tree issues. 

If you don’t mind the branches, you can leave them be, but if they’re becoming a hazard, it’s definitely worth having a conversation.
