"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."

"We have a very small house next door to our house. The roof began leaking badly and we hired Chris to replace the old roof, based on our previous experience with his work cleaning up storm damaged trees. My past positive experience with metal roofing resulted in my contracting with him to install a new metal roof on the small house. The crew showed up on our schedule. They quickly removed the old shingles, tore down an old damaged chimney and replaced all of the water damaged roof sheathing. When the metal roofing was delivered they wasted no time in starting the install. Despite frequent showers and storms they worked whenever conditions permitted. They identified some problems with the roof of a small porch and replaced that roof with architectural grade shingles. Throughout, they were diligent, courteous, professional and conscientious in their work. The day after the job was completed they completely cleaned up the consideable mess involved in a job of this scale. Recommended!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.

No, you cannot throw branches from your neighbor’s tree back into their yard, nor can you discard leaves or other plant matter that originated from their yard back over there if it happens to land in your yard. You are responsible for cleaning up plant matter that made its way into your yard.

In most cases, leaving tree roots underground is not a problem if the stump has been removed or ground below the soil. However, some larger roots may decompose, leaving dents in your soil. Additionally, some aggressive trees, including willows, oaks, elms, maples, and poplars may grow back from roots. Large aggressive trees with established root systems are more likely to grow back.

Getting a tree pro with the right experience can be the difference between your transplanted tree surviving or not. When hiring a local tree transplanting and removal service, follow up on references, check their portfolio, ask for a breakdown of the costs, and get proof of liability and workers’ compensation insurance. 

Also, look for companies certified by the International Society of Arboriculture or registered with the Tree Care Industry Association and make sure they have an appropriate state or city license.

Generally, avoid trimming trees in the summer (with the exception of pruning fruit trees as needed). Trees use a lot of energy in the summer, most of which is relegated to new growth. If you chop it too early, you could stunt the next season's growth. Again, when in doubt, do some research based on the specific tree type.
