Customers say: Quality work

"We hired Ben from Laster Tree Service to take down a massive fir tree that was threatening our shop at work. He responded to my inquiries extremely quickly and came to look at the project the very next morning. He gave me a quote for a very reasonable price, and after handling the fine details, we scheduled the project. Ben and his guy showed up early on the day, coordinated with us efficiently and then did the job in a very safe and professional manner. We are very pleased and reccomend them very highly."

"Most professional and reliable landscapers in town. They start by doing the spring turn up for me and then mow my yard weekly. If there are any issues with my yard they point them out to me and make suggestions like if I need to water more often. They do the Autumn blowouts for me as well before winter and then I am going to have them do snow removal as well. Everyone is really nice and very professional. Thank you !!"

"Besides being an expert arborist, Joseph is a fantastic communicator. He responded immediately, gave us a fair estimate, and communicated thoroughly throughout and after the tress were removed. We had a difficult job but Joseph and his men did beautiful work. I highly recommend Champion Tree Trimming Service."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Most jobs take 2-8 hours, but extensive trimming may take multiple days.

If you aren’t sure what you’re doing, be very careful when cutting mature tree roots (roots larger than 2 inches). Root cutting and pruning can affect both a tree’s stability and its ability to nourish itself. Issues during root cutting can result in damage or injury. 

It’s recommended you call in a pro to help, unless it’s a very small tree and you aren’t worried about the prospect of losing the tree.

It is good to spray water on a Christmas tree to help keep the needles hydrated. Spraying a Christmas tree with water prevents dryness, stops needles from falling off, and reduces the risk of fire.

There are several signs that may indicate a tree needs to be cut down. These include visible damage to the trunk or branches, a hollow trunk, extensive storm damage, or a significant lean to one side. Other warning signs are pest infestations or the tree growing too close to a house, power lines, or other structures. It is best to hire a professional arborist to inspect the tree, as they can determine if it can be saved or if removal is necessary.

Before you cut down a dead palm tree, try to revive it using the methods listed above. However, there are instances when it makes sense to remove a dead palm tree, including:

  • The heavily infected tree will infect nearby trees, bushes, and plants.

  • The palm’s roots are overtaking your yard, foundation, and sidewalk and causing structural damage.

  • The tree is unstable and a hazard to your property, your neighbor’s property, and pedestrians.
