"Wow this tree service is the last one I’ll ever need. I had Jordan cut several trees on my property all very close to building structures and my home. He is a master arborist and the best in the business by far. He and his crew was so professional punctual and even picked up limbs and sticks/ debris that was there way before they arrived on the property. I can say this man has my tree business for as long as I ever may need it. He even called a few weeks after the completion of the job to check on everything. Talented young man"

"These guys were great! Very professional service that went above and beyond what was asked of them. My meeting with Hunter gave me the confidence I needed to hire this company. Pricing was reasonable, and the response time was amazingly fast! My two huge pines were removed quickly, and with no damage done to my, or my neighbor's houses. BJ, and all the guys, really know what they are doing, and were all very friendly and easy to work with. And, the cleanup was outstanding, even in adverse conditions. I highly recommend this company!"

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.

Consumers typically do not need to worry about the cost of tree insurance, as professional tree service companies pay for their own coverage. For a tree service business, an average U.S. policy covering about $1 million in general liability costs roughly $40 a month or $500 a year. More extensive policies, providing between $500,000 to $2 million in coverage, can cost between $3,000 and $6,000 annually, depending on the company's size and scope of work. Tree service professionals should speak with an insurance company to determine the right plan for their business.

The exact answer to this question depends on which region of the country you’re talking about, but according to various tree counts, some of the most common types of trees in the United States include red maple, Douglas fir, quaking aspen, loblolly pine, and sweetgum.

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.

Aim to have your trees inspected and pruned in early spring. At this point in the year, tree service professionals can note where there is old growth from winter and cut that back to encourage new growth for the rest of the year. Pruning at the wrong time of the year could make your trees prone to diseases.
