"Expert Tree Service did an excellent job. Walter and his team were professional from the quote to the clean-up after the trees were removed. He and the office staff were patient and kind when I needed to delay the job for a couple of weeks. I highly recommend Expert Tree Service and I would definitely hire them again!"

"I looked at several tree services that gave me overly complicated explanations of the job and really high quotes. We needed two medium size trees removed (one dead and one too close to the house). Oscar's tree service was efficient, quick, and did so at a great price. They made sure I was happy with everything and did a thorough clean up job including grinding the stumps. I highly recommend their company and plan to only use them in the future. Working with Oscar and his team was a great experience."

"The office staff is friendly and responsive. The estimator showed up as scheduled and texted prior to arrival. The crew of 5 arrived on time on the day of service. They are a skilled and polite team who pruned the large branches, directing them so there was no damage to the surrounding plants. They cleaned up completely. This is our 2nd service with A+. Last year they felled a diseased tree on our property line that other companies were hesitant to touch. Great competent service. Highly recommend"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Most plum trees are pruned into a vase or open wine glass shape. They’ll have a shorter central leader (the trunk) that supports three to four main branches. Of course, this isn't always the case. If you have a European plum tree, you can grow it in a pyramid shape. Let the central leader extend the length of the tree and prune smaller branches to create the pyramid.

You can use a felling ax to chop down a tree by following the same prep and steps as a chainsaw, but be prepared to use some muscle. For trees bigger than 7 inches in diameter, it can take some time and serious strength to cut down a tree using just an ax. 

If a tree isn’t pruned, it can inhibit proper growth and fruit production, cause damage to both the tree and your property, and create entry points for pests and diseases. Pruning a tree enhances its stability, appearance, shape, and growth. Pruning trees regularly can also save you money long-term by avoiding overgrown or dangerous dying trees.

If you don’t cut down a dead, dying, or diseased tree, it can become a nesting place for pests like mosquitos, bees, beetles, wasps, fly larvae, and more. Some pests will live in the tree, while others will feed off the decaying wood. Unhealthy trees are also more likely to fall over, potentially injuring people and causing damage to your property.

While there is a lot of debate about whether boiling water is strong enough to kill tree roots, it is not best to remove the roots from large, old trees. You may be able to weaken young roots enough to remove them manually, but boiling water will likely not do the trick for large root systems.
