"They might be priced like any tree-cutting business, but P.J.'s Tree Services are worth every penny and more! P.J.'s crew expertly removed our sickly, approximately 80-100 ft tall, 50+ year-old Ponderosa pine growing very close to the house and a mostly dead birch next to a green hedge. On the scheduled day, P.J.'s Tree Services' truck got a flat tire. Despite this, they still showed up and, while having it fixed, did an amazing job! P.J.'s team is friendly, highly skilled, hard-working, and extra mindful of their surroundings. When the trees were gone, all the bushes and our house stood tall, and everything looked back to normal as if nothing happened. The crew not only raked both yards and the driveway, but the owner of P.J.'s Tree Services came for a final inspection and, on his own initiative, even cleaned the gutters! If you need to have your trees removed, P.J.'s Tree Services are way to go!"

"I haven't had any work done yet. But... after 3 years and multiple calls to the most well know tree services in the area, Betchels was the fist to call back. I made an inquiry on Sunday (fathers day) Ryon called back Monday AM and spent 2 hours on the property on Tuesday, after business hours and at my convenience. He looked at every tree and made recommendations for what I could do myself vs the professional jobs. I was left with a written quote more reasonable than any of the nightmare stories I'd heard from friends and neighbors. We have a large property with multiple trees that have been neglected for years. I was dreading a professional assessment/quote but walked away feeling encouraged and looking forward to future progress. I wouldn't normally write a review on work that hasn't been done but I was so impressed with the service, quoted price and his willingness to accommodate that I felt like I could review the experience so far. I'll write more when the work is completed but I'm confident it will exceed my expectations! Thank you Ryon for taking the time to make an overwhelming situation feel manageable. I look forward to working with you."

"Nicole was great she walked my property with me talked with me about how to trim my trees, what changes needed to be made to my landscape (move bushes/plants, remove trees ect) to be as proactive as possible in protecting my home in case of a wild fire. Nicole understood that the natural beauty of my property was important to me and I spend a lot of time outside and she took it to heart suggesting things to keep my property beautiful but practical and safe. Will definitely hire again in a few years to go over the changes and make sure I’m as protected as possible."

"This summer and last Patrick and Aaron assisted me in a quite a few projects, including sealing log checks, creating railing gate for me spa, sanding and finishing decking, and even landscaping work. They are prompt, efficient and fair. In Missoula, it is rare to find a company that will do what they say when they say it - and these guys do just that. They're good at brainstorming to find solutions to unusual project issues."

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.

Pruning can impact cold hardiness—but it’s less about the exact temperature and more about temperature variation. Generally, you don’t want to prune trees when there’s a risk of temperatures suddenly dropping from 50 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit to 0 degrees Fahrenheit or below. A tree is most sensitive until 48 hours after it’s pruned.

Tree roots don’t necessarily break through concrete on their own, but they can certainly take advantage of existing cracks, even very small ones. As roots grow, they expand the cracks, making them larger and leading to serious and costly foundation damage. It’s a good idea to have repairs on any foundation cracks you’re concerned about.

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. 

Whether you should remove the roots of a dead tree depends on whether they’re damaging nearby areas. For instance, if the roots continue to grow near sidewalks, driveways, or the foundation of your home, they can cause damage. If you want to plant something else in that spot, removing the roots can make it easier for the new tree or plant to grow.
