"Great experience working with Respess Brothers! Charly and his team did an excellent job removing 16 large trees from our yard! They were quick to respond to my request for a quote. They were friendly, professional, and reasonable in price. The team arrived as promised and did a great job cutting the trees, grinding the stumps, hauling off the debris, and cleaning up. For so many large trees, I was surprised how quickly they got the job done. You can tell they care about their work. I would highly recommend them!"

"Adam's Tree Service did an amazing job with the five (5) trees I wanted taken down, taken away, and grinding down the stumps!! Had two other companies (referred by someone) come by and one agreed to a price, but never showed back up. After that, I looked up a tree service and Adam's Tree Service popped up. I called, and Adam's Tree Service was able to come by my property that day and we agreed on a price. The price was so reasonable for what I was asking. He told me that it could take his crew about 3 weeks before getting started but would call me to let me know when they will start (this is vacation property). Because of the price I was quoted, I worried that it would be another no show. Well, after only two weeks, I received a phone call to let me know that they would be at the property. When I returned to the property, all the work was done, and I was very satisfied!! I spoke with my neighbors who told me that she had never seen a tree service crew work as well as this crew worked. She said that she had spoken with them and they were very polite and worked hard. If I have any other trees to be removed, I will be calling Adam's Tree Service!!!! Also, I would highly recommend their services to everyone!!!!"

He arrived on time and went straight to work, taking down a large tree hanging over our shed. Kenny works quick, is very knowledgeable and enjoys what he does! We would highly recommend his tree service!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Generally, you’ll want to avoid pruning more than 25% of the tree’s canopy at one time. While pruning your tree is important, it’s possible to do it too often or to go too far. Again, this is why hiring a tree trimming pro to do the work is wise. However, if you do decide to DIY, going slow and trimming gradually is the name of the game.

It will take you anywhere from 15 minutes to two hours per tree stump to grind and remove the stump from the ground. The larger the size, the longer it will take to remove the stump. Also, keep in mind that rocky soil may require local excavation services to loosen up large boulders before you can begin to remove the tree stump.

The ideal depth of a tree notch depends on the tree, but it should usually be between 20% and 25% of the tree’s depth. However, if the tree is leaning towards the direction of the notch, it can be cut more shallowly—at as little as 10% of the depth. When the tree is leaning away from the direction it needs to be felled, you can cut deeper, closer to 30%.

Although the terms tree trimming and tree pruning are used interchangeably, they are very different types of tree maintenance. Tree trimming involves enhancing the appearance of your tree by removing unruly branches, providing your tree with ample sunlight and nutrients and prevents unsightly overgrowth. 

Tree pruning helps keep your trees disease-free. This process removes unhealthy growths, dead branches, and other unhealthy parts of the tree. It’s more common for deciduous and ornamental trees but not so common for evergreen trees. To determine which method you need, discuss it with a tree trimming specialist.

Your neighbor is not in a good position to know if your trees are truly dead or pose any kind of danger. That’s why hiring an arborist or tree service expert can be such an important part of the process. If the trees are still alive and don’t pose any threat, you’re in the clear (but you may want to document and photograph everything in case events turn sour down the road).

But if a tree is visibly dead and near the property line, you should remove it to be safe. If a dead tree falls on a neighbor’s property, they may have grounds to sue for negligence. If any branches on trees have died, it’s a good idea to cut them back for similar reasons.
