"Will and his crew, Cameron and Grant, did a great job! We had a few trees to trim and a large shrub that had gotten out of hand and they did the job quickly and professionally for a fair price! They will even repair our neighbors fence that had fallen down. Highly recommend!"
This one could be done with the bucket truck .
Had to rope down this one cause it was in a close area.

"Ruben's Tree Service did a perfect job of trimming the ivy from the brick on our house. We needed some of the ivy trimmed for painting, but we didn't want complete removal of the vines. He and his team were able to complete the job exactly as specified. The job was done quickly and so neatly--all of the left over clippings were hauled away. Will definitely hire again."

"I was so pleased with A's Tree Service Corp. They were exactly what I wanted, someone to come in and just remove all of the trees from a very overgrown property we had just purchased. The job was huge and also difficult. The trees on my property were many stories high, entangled with power lines of two houses and were in close proximity of my neighbor's houses. I was so pleased with their professionalism and dedication to removing 9 very large trees in one day, WITHOUT A PROBLEM!!!! I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking into tree removal! Thank you As!!!"

"First Choice Tree Expert, Juan A. Garcia, and his team did an amazing job. They expertly tackled a very tall, partially dead pin oak tree on our front lawn needing to be removed, plus stump grinding and removal of a giant limb from our roof. This was a tough job, and we were on a deadline. First Choice really came through for us. We highly recommend Juan and his team. Thank you!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally, no, tree topping isn’t a good technique, and you should avoid using it in most cases. Tree topping may be the only good option to save a tree following severe damage after a storm, but in most other cases, it’s not the right choice. Tree topping can leave trees vulnerable to disease and further damage, and most pros will suggest against it.

There are several methods to hollow out a tree stump, and the best one depends on your tools, experience, and priorities. Common methods include using a chisel and hammer, a chainsaw, or burning.

  • Chisel and Hammer: This is often considered the easiest approach for those with limited tools or experience, though it is the most time-consuming.

  • Chainsaw: Using a chainsaw is the fastest method, but it comes with significant safety risks, especially for inexperienced users.

  • Burning: This can be an effective method, but it is not recommended unless you can first drill holes into the stump. Without holes, the stump will be difficult to light and may not burn completely through.

A power drill with at least a ⅜-inch diameter bit can make the job quicker and easier, regardless of the primary method. While you can use a chisel or chainsaw without a drill, it will require more time and effort. Always wear protective goggles and thick gloves, as splinters are an inevitable risk.

Grinding down a tree helps reduce the risk of foundation damage and pests and even helps your home’s curb appeal. Stumps can also be a safety hazard. If grass grows above the stump and someone else mows your yard, they may be in for a rude awakening when they accidentally hit it.

You can start your search for a reputable arborist online by looking for professionals who hold the proper licensing and are fully insured. Next, read through some online reviews to see what kind of service the expert brings to the table, and confirm that they don’t have a history of complaints with the Better Business Bureau. Finally, you can ask the professional for a list of references and then call them to ask questions about the service, professionalism, value, and more that the expert brings to the table.

It may not be worth it to rake every leaf in your yard, but it’s necessary to remove the majority of leaves to prevent them from smothering grass growth on your lawn. However, raking leaves isn’t your only option for leaf removal. You can remove leaves easily with a leaf blower or compost or mulch them with your lawn mower to repurpose them to help grow your garden or yard.
