"Jay contacted me on Friday and he and his crew came on Saturday to cut down 3 huge trees. I couldn’t be happier with the work that was done. They cleaned up all limbs and huge trunks. The crew will return on Monday to complete the cleaning. They are very meticulous about their work. I couldn’t be happier with the work that was done. Jay is so kind and wants to please you. I feel like I’ve made a new friend. Don’t hesitate to hire them!!!"

"Jay Cotton and crew did an awesome job. They cut, removed and cleaned up debris from a hickory tree that was too close to my daughters house. While there they removed the trunk and roots from a fallen tree caused by a storm. At my house removed 4 huge limbs from my 50 yr old oak tree that were hanging over my house as well as neat clean up. Price for these 2 jobs was very reasonable!"

"Had an excellent experience with NA Tree Service. Nathan came to the house to provide an estimate for the work to be done, and he came back the next day and completed the tree removal project in an efficient, timely matter and at a reasonable cost for the work done. Would recommend NA Tree Service for any tree work you may need done."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

If you’re planning on keeping the tree, unless the roots are invasive, there’s no need to remove them, as doing so can cause damage to the tree. If the tree has been cut down and the stump and roots are left, grinding and removing the stump can cause root decay for some species. For other species, the stump and roots will need to be removed to prevent pests, disease, and possible tree regrowth.

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

The best time to prune Japanese flowering cherry trees depends on where you live and the type of flowering cherry tree. Some trees benefit from being pruned toward the end of winter or early spring, after the last freeze. Meanwhile, other trees do well after blooming, in late spring or early summer. Avoid pruning your flowering cherry tree in the early winter, as this encourages open wounds that can lead to infections or infestations. 

Professionals use assessments, strategic cuts, specialized equipment, and safety measures to ensure healthy growth or the safe removal of trees or shrubs.
