"Mike was the third of four tree services that we arranged to have provide us with an estimate. He visited the house, took a look at the trees, and discussed removal with us. His estimate was that his crew could remove both trees in one day, which was faster than several of the other estimates we received. I checked with him for proof of insurance, which he promptly provided, and asked a few questions about his business. Mike provided an estimate that was right in line with most of the other estimates. Because of the stellar reviews that he had on Angie's List, we felt confident hiring. After discussing a few final details, we returned the contract. Scheduling was difficult because of the weather, but Mike remained in touch until we found a day that worked. Mike and his crew arrived in the morning. My wife stayed home that day and said that they laid plywood to protect the yard from the skidder and lift. She said that the crews were efficient and that they were wearing protective equipment. Before noon, they had the trees removed. When I arrived home that night, I observed that the yard was basically as it was before, with very minimal signs that the equipment and crew had been there. The crew cut the stumps or the trees to the ground as far as possible (we did not opt for stump grinding based on the location of the trees), and they picked up all of the debris. We greatly appreciate Mike's attention to detail and the care and concern with which his crew worked. We would absolutely hire him again."

"10-26-20 I have never been this satisfied with a tree service in my life. I am 68 YO and the crew they sent me was clean, professional, courteous, and timely. They took all the dead wood out of 5 very large trees in my back yard, no boom work, all hand climbing. The cost was so reasonable and the clean up was excellent. If you have tree trimming to do and care about the health of your tress, call BAUMANN, I WILL AGAIN. JOHN G"

"A and M Tree Services did an amazing job removing a lot of overgrown invasive bamboo I had in my backyard. They were on time, professional and courteous. They also cleaned up after themselves and had great communication throughout the entire process. Victor explained everything to me. His crew cut the bamboo out, used a stump grinder to destroy the roots and sprayed chemicals to ensure it wouldn’t return. I would highly recommend A and M Tree Services and the price was affordable."

"I recommend A & M Tree Services LLC because they do excellent work at fair prices. They responded to my request for an estimate quickly and arrived on time to provide it. I accepted it and there was an opening the next day. The crew arrived the next morning and had my large tree removed and the yard cleaned up by afternoon."

"We cannot say enough good things about Jay’s Firewood and Mulch. This was our second time using them, and once again, they exceeded every expectation. They came out to cut down two very large, very dead trees that were an extreme hazard. After seeing how dangerous the trees were, they recognized immediately that they needed to come down right away. Their professionalism, knowledge, and urgency truly stood out. Not only did they safely remove both trees, but they also cleaned up all of the debris and left everything looking great. Their level of care and professionalism is unmatched. Honestly, they essentially saved our lives by taking care of such a dangerous situation before something terrible happened. We will absolutely continue using Jay’s Firewood and Mulch and will recommend them to everyone we know. Reliable, professional, hardworking, and genuinely caring, we are so thankful for them!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

There are several signs that may indicate a tree needs to be cut down. These include visible damage to the trunk or branches, a hollow trunk, extensive storm damage, or a significant lean to one side. Other warning signs are pest infestations or the tree growing too close to a house, power lines, or other structures. It is best to hire a professional arborist to inspect the tree, as they can determine if it can be saved or if removal is necessary.

Generally, homeowners do not need permission to cut down a tree on their own private property, but there are several exceptions where a permit may be required. You might need a permit if the tree is particularly large, old, or a protected species, such as a heritage tree. Trees located near public property or power lines can also be subject to special rules. Additionally, many local governments and homeowners associations (HOAs) have regulations controlling which trees can be removed to manage an area's appearance or prevent the spread of invasive species. To avoid hefty fines, it is crucial to check with your local government and HOA to determine if a permit is needed before you begin.

Light-bark trees are most notorious for producing lots of sap when wounded. These varieties include maples, birches, poplars, dogwoods, magnolias, and elms, and they will bleed more when the trees are dormant. That’s why it’s a good idea to prune them in the summer months rather than waiting until winter.

You’ll want to have your palm trees trimmed during the spring, ideally in May, before hurricane season sets in, which generally takes place during the late summer. Palm trees grow fastest over the summer months. You’ll also want to trim your palm trees when you notice:

  • Brown fronds 

  • Dry leaves

  • Flower pods

  • Fruit

  • Fronds overgrown in power lines

  • Frond encroaching upon your neighbor’s home or yard 

  • Visible damage from a storm

You can trim just one side of the tree, especially when that side is growing near something like a power line or a home. Pros will carefully trim the tree back until it is safe from that structure. While this is common, it also needs to be done with the utmost care, as pruning or trimming away at one side of the tree may make it structurally unsound. This instance is yet another where hiring a pro is wise, especially if power lines are involved.
