"Mark and his crew did a great job on several trees on our property. They were fast, efficient and did a thorough clean-up after the work. They were sensitive to our 100+ year old white oaks when climbing them. Their prices are fair and reasonable. We will definitely use them again. Martin & Sallye Fox Fairview, NC"

"Phoenix Tree Service is very professional, they removed 3 trees and trimmed branches that were over the house. They also cleaned the roof from all debris which was marvelous. Victor is always on time and if something happens he keep us informed. They left my yard cleaned and shredded all small branches and I am really happy with everything they do and would recommend them to anyone. Each crew member is so nice and I noticed as they work everything is completed with safety in mind."

"Nelson was very knowledgeable about the trees and pointed out what I should look for. In the quote, he offered also for the team to clear out some of the other smaller trees and debris in the yard. The team came out on time and finished the job quickly, cleaning up well at the end."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Completely topping a plum tree is a risky business. Cut too much, and you’ll kill your tree. That said, you do need to trim the top of your tree to encourage bushy growth, maintain your tree’s vase shape, and limit size. 

A plum tree's central leader (or trunk) should never extend more than 3 feet above the highest branch. When you first plant your tree, cut the central leader so it’s 2 to 3 feet tall. As it grows, cut it back 12 to 20 inches until it reaches its desired height. Never prune more than one-third of the new growth.

Tree roots don’t necessarily break through concrete on their own, but they can certainly take advantage of existing cracks, even very small ones. As roots grow, they expand the cracks, making them larger and leading to serious and costly foundation damage. It’s a good idea to have repairs on any foundation cracks you’re concerned about.

Surface-level tree roots might only pose a small threat, such as being a tripping hazard or obstacle when you mow your lawn. But if mature tree roots start growing in the direction of your home’s foundation or plumbing system, it could be a real problem. Cutting small tree roots out before they grow too large can keep your home safe without removing the whole tree.

The recovery time for pruning depends on how much you prune, the species of tree, and how well you care for it afterward. All trees grow new wood and often sprout additional branches after pruning. Ideally, trees should recover from normal pruning after one or two years. Heavy pruning or slow-growing trees may take several years to fully recover.

Generally, if your neighbor’s tree hangs over your yard, you can legally trim overhanging branches. Keep in mind that you cannot cross your property line to cut the trees, and if you damage the tree by trimming it, your neighbor could sue you. Depending on the type of tree and value, this could mean dishing out two to three times the value of the tree.

It’s worth noting that the specifics of this type of tree maintenance and the guidelines around it may vary by location. Do your research and, most importantly, consult with your neighbor.
