"Great. Unlike most Angi professionals, Matt and crew actually showed up when they said they would and did the job. They even did additional work from storm damage discovered after their original quote. Would definitely hire again."

"I had a tree fall onto my neighbor's roof and fence on a Saturday. Ryan and his crew came out the same day. There were 5 people on the crew. Each one did what he needed to do to get the job done in record time. Ryan went the extra mile. He trimmed my neighbor's tree, fixed her gutter, and is reinstalling the fence panel that was damaged. I highly recommend Bampton Tree Service."

"Mack and his crew were great to work with. I had some trees and honeysuckle taken out by another company which they left ruts in my backyard. Mack smoothed all the ruts out, ground all the stumps, brought in dirt, and then laid new sod. My yard looks beautiful. They showed up on time, were very polite, and kept me informed. I would recommend Mack if you are looking for someone dependable and honest."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally, you should prune around 20% of an apple tree’s growth—and never more than 30%. This means that if you have a severely overgrown tree, it can take a few seasons to prune it back enough to produce the healthiest fruit. 

If you’re dealing with a newly planted or juvenile tree, hold off on pruning beyond the initial shaping. Wait at least a couple of seasons into fruit production since pruning can increase the number of water sprouts and unproductive foliage.

You can use a felling ax to chop down a tree by following the same prep and steps as a chainsaw, but be prepared to use some muscle. For trees bigger than 7 inches in diameter, it can take some time and serious strength to cut down a tree using just an ax. 

While the fastest way to kill a tree is to simply cut it down, there are several other methods to choose from. You should hire a professional tree removal service to cut down a tree to ensure your personal and property safety. Some slower but effective options include treating or grinding the tree stump or using a basal bark treatment. 

There are a few differences between tree guying and tree staking. Tree guying requires anchor stakes that are shorter and stronger than regular stakes and are driven deeper into the ground at an angle away from the tree. Tree staking uses longer stakes that are set parallel to the tree and are used for smaller trees. Consult a local tree professional to determine which method is best for your tree.

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.
