Get matched with top tree service pros in Oakland, NE

Q: What do I do if my neighbor is complaining about dead trees?

• <div><p>Your neighbor is not in a good position to know if your trees are truly dead or pose any kind of danger. That&rsquo;s why hiring an arborist or tree service expert can be such an important part of the process. If the trees are still alive and don&rsquo;t pose any threat, you&rsquo;re in the clear (but you may want to document and photograph everything in case events turn sour down the road).</p><p>But if a tree is visibly dead and near the property line, you should remove it to be safe. If a dead tree falls on a neighbor&rsquo;s property, they may have grounds to sue for negligence. If any branches on trees have died, it&rsquo;s a good idea to cut them back for similar reasons.</p></div>

Q: What happens if you don’t prune a peach tree?

• <div><p>If you ever want to see the literal fruits of your labor, you&rsquo;ll need to prune your peach trees. Without pruning, the trees may not grow or bear fruit since the nutrients will be divided among too many offshoots to provide any with enough energy to produce the peaches. Plus, if parts of the peach tree become diseased or pest-ridden, pruning can nip those problems in the bud.</p></div>

Q: What costs are involved in tree and shrub services?

• <div><p>Costs reflect the size of the tree or shrub, the complexity of the task, location accessibility, and disposal needs, and comprehensive quotes vary accordingly.</p></div>

Q: How often do I need to prune my trees?

• <div><p>Any tree that needs to be pruned should be pruned to remove dead branches at least once a year. You may need to prune far more often if you&rsquo;re trying to maintain a certain shape or to save a tree that suddenly becomes infected.</p></div>

Q: Can you plant a tree over a gas line?

• <div><p>No, you cannot plant a tree above a gas line. Tree roots grow and spread over time and can sometimes dent, crack, or penetrate a gas line. Those same roots may also cause accessibility problems for maintenance or repairs. You can generally plant vegetation with non-invasive root systems, low-growing vegetation, and flower beds near gas lines. </p></div>

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Your neighbor is not in a good position to know if your trees are truly dead or pose any kind of danger. That’s why hiring an arborist or tree service expert can be such an important part of the process. If the trees are still alive and don’t pose any threat, you’re in the clear (but you may want to document and photograph everything in case events turn sour down the road).

But if a tree is visibly dead and near the property line, you should remove it to be safe. If a dead tree falls on a neighbor’s property, they may have grounds to sue for negligence. If any branches on trees have died, it’s a good idea to cut them back for similar reasons.

If you ever want to see the literal fruits of your labor, you’ll need to prune your peach trees. Without pruning, the trees may not grow or bear fruit since the nutrients will be divided among too many offshoots to provide any with enough energy to produce the peaches. Plus, if parts of the peach tree become diseased or pest-ridden, pruning can nip those problems in the bud.

Costs reflect the size of the tree or shrub, the complexity of the task, location accessibility, and disposal needs, and comprehensive quotes vary accordingly.

Any tree that needs to be pruned should be pruned to remove dead branches at least once a year. You may need to prune far more often if you’re trying to maintain a certain shape or to save a tree that suddenly becomes infected.
