"they came to view job and give me an estimate within 30 minutes of my original call.I agreed to a very fair price for a turnkey cutting and removal of a tree that had fallen in Monday's Rainstorm.the tree fell across the fence on my daughters neighbor"s outbuilding.Mario assured me his company could remove the tree and 3 others including a "widow maker" tree attached to the fallen part. This is a man of his word.Early the next morning they had cut down and removed the wood, mulched the branches, and raked and blown the area..shortly after noon, you couldn"t tell there were trees there..If you need an honest reliable company to do tree work or tree removal, I highly recommend them..I give them 5 stars..!"

"This was an emergency project. JD Tree service came to my home on Sunday morning after finding this service on Angi the day before. The crew did an excellent job removing the tree. I could not get out of my front gate. After I got an estimate and excepted it, (which was a reasonable estimate) my front gate was cleared immediately. The crew arrived an hour later and completed the work. Good job JD Tree Service! Sidney Taylor"

"I would highly recommend Kiker’s Tree Service. They were efficient, affordable and polite. I had a total of 6 quotes to get trees trimmed and taken down. Kiker’s Tree Service came out to be much lower in price, then the others. Travis was a pleasure to work with, he made the process easy and comfortable. The staff was professional and communicated through out the day. The team finished a big project in one day. They were all knowledgeable and friendly and they cleaned up perfectly. I even added extra stuff to the project the day of the job. They were very accommodating with reasonable pricing. I would certainly use then again for future projects. You will be total satisfied with the results you will get."

"Cody and his crew did a great job taking down several trees on my property with two being very close to my house. They were careful not to damage anything and they responded quickly to do the job. The crew also did an excellent job cleaning up everything after the trees were down. I would recommend them for any tree service needs."

"Hector and his crew were very knowledgable and a pleasure to work with. They spent 2 days removing quite a few trees and some were huge (70ft). We were amazed to watch them manuver the trees, and sections to avoid damaging other trees and plants. They finished in the time frame Hector estimated. They thoroughly cleaned the debris from the yard- I That was a plesant surprise. They were all very friendly and a pleasure to with with. We already gave their number to our neighbor. Their price was very reasonable. We will definately use them again if needed!"

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

The best way is to start controlling tree height long before it grows too large, via careful pruning through the years. But that’s not always possible. If a tree has become too high or too large, use selective pruning to remove the most troublesome branches, one by one, without topping the tree. Gently shaping a tree like this can, over time, correct problems. You can also find growth inhibitors to spray on a tree to stop it from growing too rapidly, but use these sparingly if at all.

Leaving the tree stump and letting it rot is never a good idea, as this leads to insect infestations and other frustrations. Additionally, decomposing trunks are at risk for diseases that spread out to the remaining plants and trees in the yard, thus ruining your whole outdoor aesthetic. It's usually best to remove the stump at the same time you remove the tree.

A serrated knife will work for cutting off small palm tree fronds, about 1 inch in diameter. For larger fronds, you will need pruning shears. You may also use a pruning saw, and if your palm tree is especially tall, an extended pole saw can help you reach the brown fronds around the trunk.

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.

In the case that a tree is growing directly on your property line, the cost of maintaining the tree is shared and is the property of both owners in common. In this case, all decisions regarding the maintenance of the tree must be made jointly, and both parties must agree on a course of action. You will need to agree with your neighbor about the cutting of any roots before you carry it out, and your neighbor must also consult with you before doing any trimming. Coming to an agreement with your neighbor about any shared trees ahead of necessary trimming and maintenance will make this process much simpler.
