"We have a huge oak tree in our backyard that needed trimming and thinned out. Isac clearly explained what needed to be done and how they would do it with the small amount of space open for dropped limbs. They avoided damage to plants and shed by guiding them with ropes. They hauled away all the debris. The men were careful and professional doing their work. They also ground down two stumps from trees cut down a year or more ago. Their machine easily ground them way down below ground level along with the large roots protruding in many directions. They did everything for a very reasonable rate and I will call on them for any future work. I highly recommend them. Thank you Isac and crew! Great job! Note: They can also do landscaping and painting. The before and after pictures I uploaded unfortunately don't indicate a large difference because the before picture was taken a week earlier when the leaves were just starting to appear."

"The trees at our rental house were in dire need of being trimmed back before they caused any damage to the new roof. The contractor we were working with on the roof suggested I call Vasquez Tree Service and we couldn't be happier with the results. I called the company and left a message inquiring about an estimate. Eddy Vasquez, the owner, and his wife both showed up at our agreed upon time for the estimate. Eddy speaks limited English, so his wife translates for him. They were both very nice and answered all the questions I had. He gave me an estimate on the spot and worked with me on the price until we agreed on a price that was lower than the other three estimates I received. Eddy and his crew started on the trees the next week and all work was completed within a day and a half. When I met Eddy's wife at the house to pay her for their services, we walked around the property and she made sure everything was to my liking. My experience with Vasquez Tree Service was wonderful and I can't recommend them enough. Should we ever need their services again, we will most definitely call them.

"When I called Safari, they helped explain what was suddenly causing the issue and what the specific service they had would do to fix the problem. They were very courteous, patient as I asked questions, came to their appointment on time and were well worth the money paid. It was less than $100 to spray 10 - 15 trees."

"Did an excellent job performing clean up of small but heavily overgrown backyard space. Great customer service. Responded quickly to messages and phone calls. The cost was a little more than I had hoped to pay, but it was comparable to the other quotes I received. I would not hesitate to use this company again."

"I hired Diaz Tree Care Service twice abd have been very pleased. The arrive on time and they work quickly and efficiently. Also, Diaz Tree Care Service does a complete job: They remove limbs and branches. Then they remove tge truck and grind up the root. In addition, Diaz Tree Care Service cleans the yard and hauls off all the debris. Most importantly, the cost is reasonable according to the size of the tree, it's location, and the difficulty in its removal. I highly recommend Diaz Tree Care Service because they are a skilled professional tree removal service. They also have the right equipment to do the job. I give them five stars."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

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

A serrated knife will work for cutting off small palm tree fronds, about 1 inch in diameter. For larger fronds, you will need pruning shears. You may also use a pruning saw, and if your palm tree is especially tall, an extended pole saw can help you reach the brown fronds around the trunk.

Leaving the tree stump and letting it rot is never a good idea, as this leads to insect infestations and other frustrations. Additionally, decomposing trunks are at risk for diseases that spread out to the remaining plants and trees in the yard, thus ruining your whole outdoor aesthetic. It's usually best to remove the stump at the same time you remove the tree.

Tree experts don’t advise against digging through tree roots, but instead encourage caution and consultation with a local arborist to make sure you don’t damage the tree’s structure or interrupt its water or nutrient intake. An arborist can recommend specific practices when digging and help prune the roots or dig a trench for utilities with a tool that can remove soil without touching the tree’s roots.

Palm trees will not regrow from a stump once the tree has been cut down. This type of tree is unique because the root and stump system will slowly decay after the tree is gone, unlike other species that can regrow. That’s why it’s preferable to remove dead or decaying palm tree stumps quickly as they can become an eyesore and don’t offer future growing potential.
