"Jose (Royal Park Treework LLC) arrived right on time and his appearance was impeccable. I was greeted with a warm smile and a handshake. I will also add that Yvonne was really nice on the phone when I made the appointment. I had three Bradford Pear trees to be removed. While I was discussing the situation with Jose, he impressed me with his knowledge and how he explained exactly what he would do. I had looked up what price range for this type of job and his price was very fair. Jose and his team came back the same day. It was done quickly (they worked non-stop), and everything was cleaned up when they left. He even trimmed a tree that was getting overgrow-looks great. All in all, a class act, job well done! I plan on hiring him again later this year to do stump grinding and next Spring when I will plant a different type of tree. Thanks to all at Royal Park Treework and Landscaping for a great job!!!

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

Aim to have your trees inspected and pruned in early spring. At this point in the year, tree service professionals can note where there is old growth from winter and cut that back to encourage new growth for the rest of the year. Pruning at the wrong time of the year could make your trees prone to diseases.

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.

In some states and municipalities, you will need a permit to remove a tree on your property. In many cases where permits are required, a tree must reach a maximum height before a permit is required to remove it. You can either ask your local building department or a tree removal professional if you’ll need a permit. If you do, you can expect to pay between $50 and $150 for the permit alone. Your tree removal company should pull the permit for you and include the permit fee in your total.

Tree pruning is a common and helpful tree maintenance technique that involves carefully cutting and trimming unwanted branches so that the tree can continue to grow and thrive. Pruning is done carefully and intentionally. Tree topping is a frowned-upon method that involves removing and cutting most or the entirety of the top of the tree, including structurally important branches.

An arborist specializes in tree care, performing tasks such as pruning, treating diseases, and removing hazardous trees. They also assess soil conditions, plant trees, and develop landscaping plans to ensure healthy growth. They also manage debris cleanup, inspect equipment, and record maintenance activities. Arborists often collaborate with landscapers and professional tree maintenance services, applying their specialized knowledge and problem-solving skills to maintain tree health and safety.
