"I usually don't write reviews, but we had such a positive experience with Cardona's Tree Service that I can't help but let others know about our experience. We had Walter Cardona and his crew out today to deal with a very tricky large split and downed tree. The tree was laying across our two neighbors' back yards, resting in another large tree. There were fences, landscaping and storage sheds threatened...very little room to maneuver. It was an emergency situation. Walter made room in the schedule so that they could take the tree down before it did further damage. They showed up first thing, on time and proceeded to move their crane into position where they could reach and piece by piece cut and lift the downed tree to an area where it could be dealt with. It proved to be an all day job. They had all the right equipment. The crew was talented, very professional and really great to deal with. I would not hesitate to call on Walter and Cardona's Tree Service anytime that I had a tree service need."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Yes, it’s okay to trim low branches on a tree, also known as limbing up or raising the crown. Essentially, you’ll trim the lower third of the tree (trunk) and leave the upper two-thirds of the tree (crown). Arborists recommend trimming 20% of a tree’s leaves per season for two to three seasons. Trimming low branches allows light to flow through the tree, increasing circulation and making the tree stronger and healthier.

The amount of time it takes for a tree trunk to rot depends on several factors, including the tree’s size, species, and environmental conditions. It can take anywhere from a few years to several decades for a tree’s trunk to rot. A tree stump, on the other hand, can take up to 10 years to disappear after it’s decayed naturally.

There are two types of arborists: certified and consulting. A certified arborist is licensed and equipped to provide tree pruning, planting, fertilizing, monitoring, transplanting, treatment, and removal services. A consulting arborist specializes in tree appraisals, diagnosing problems and recommending treatments for illnesses. However, they will not provide these services themselves. Most consulting arborists are certified arborists who can refer you to a tree service that can administer the correct treatments.

A few signs a tree may be dead is if the leaves are dead and there are no signs of new blooms. You can also perform a scratch test on some of the branches to check the condition of the cambium layer beneath the bark.

If it is green, it is still alive, but if several are dry, brittle, and brown, the tree may be dying or dead. Always consult an arborist before assuming your tree is dead because you may be able to save it.

You can find pruning paints and sealants for trees, but you shouldn’t use them on a topped tree. Coatings like these often inhibit the tree’s healing process. An important exception is if there are dangerous fungi nearby that the tree is particularly vulnerable to, like oaks and oak wilt. Sealing cuts can help prevent fungi from taking root.
