"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 usually don't write reviews, but we had such a positive experience with Cardona's Tree Service that I can't help but let others know about our experience. We had Walter Cardona and his crew out today to deal with a very tricky large split and downed tree. The tree was laying across our two neighbors' back yards, resting in another large tree. There were fences, landscaping and storage sheds threatened...very little room to maneuver. It was an emergency situation. Walter made room in the schedule so that they could take the tree down before it did further damage. They showed up first thing, on time and proceeded to move their crane into position where they could reach and piece by piece cut and lift the downed tree to an area where it could be dealt with. It proved to be an all day job. They had all the right equipment. The crew was talented, very professional and really great to deal with. I would not hesitate to call on Walter and Cardona's Tree Service anytime that I had a tree service need."

Customers say: True professional

"Excellent, very well organized, professional work. They were very diligent to place mats on the damp lawn to protect it from damage by the machines. Team worked very efficiently and safely. Very courteous team. They spent a good amount of time cleaning up debris and left the lawn in really good shape. I have no hesitation in recommending them. Over my 20+ years at this house, I've used several other tree companies but this one is for sure the one I'll call first next time I need tree services."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Late August, September, and mid-October are the ideal months for planting a young tree. However, the best time to plant a tree ultimately depends on when the weather transitions to fall-like conditions and eventually winter frost. As long as the hottest days of summer have passed and the ground hasn’t frozen yet, you can still successfully plant trees.

Horticulturist is a broad term for any type of plant and soil expert. An arborist, meanwhile, specializes in all aspects of tree care. You should hire an arborist when you need assistance with tree-related tasks, such as pruning large trees, removing trees, diagnosing a sick tree, or emergency tree services. Horticulturists aren’t qualified to handle those types of tasks.

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.

Some people prefer to leave or even carve a leftover stump, but we recommend removing it if possible. You can often dig out smaller trunks with a shovel once they have died and dried out. You can have stumps professionally removed, or request a service to grind them down to ground level so they can be replaced with other landscaping or objects.

Aside from removing dead or diseased branches, you should prune your trees somewhere between every one and three years. Some people—particularly commercial farmers—prune their apple trees yearly to produce higher yields. This is the best way to promote tree health. That said, the average homeowner can get away with hard-pruning their mature apple tree every other year or every three years.
