"I used Martinez Tree Service many years ago when a massive 80 ft high Oak in my front yard began to die and was leaning toward my neighbor's home. Their work was extremely efficient, thorough, and amazing to watch as they climbed from one section to another like they lived in giant trees all their lives. Jose is the main climber and he was all over that tree, tying off large limbs, power sawing at seemingly impossible heights. When another large Oak in my backyard began to die a few years ago, becoming hollow inside and losing bark, I tried to find them online but did not save their name or contact information. I tried other companies, but the difficulty of the job scared all of them away (the tree was dead, hollow inside, up against a neighbor's stockade fence, very close to a decorative brick well and a 2 room workshop at the back of my property, and inaccessible by crane). Another landscaper recommended the Martinez brothers. They responded the next day, Ishmael Martinez met for an estimate the day after that, and were at the house with Jose ready to climb the next morning, bright and early. efficient, on time and extremely thorough. I would hire them in a heartbeat next time. This time, Iâ m saving their contact information in a special location"

"Did a great job removing a dying/dead 60 year old oak tree. The tree was within 25 feet of the house (and overhanging the roof) and the crew exercised care.so as to avoid any damage to structures or surrounding landscaping. They even cut up the branches into a usable size (for use in my fireplace), and stacked the firewood for me."

"Can’t say enough about the excellent work Pat and his crew from Wildlife Tree and Landscaping did on and around my property. Prompt and courteous, Pat and his team removed and ground the stumps of two very tall (75+ft) problematic trees that were right on the fence line. They trimmed two others, and cut a beautiful mulch bed for a cherry tree in my front yard. After, they put Topsoil, penn mulch, and seed down where needed. If I need tree service and major landscaping done in the future, I won’t go to anyone else."

"Atlantic tree experts gave us the best price out of several companies, and their customer service was the best we’ve experienced. They had a very difficult task of removing a 100ft+ oak tree that was technically split into two different trees and was very close to my home. They put down plywood on our lawn to ensure it wouldn’t leave divots, and they had to maneuver their crane carefully over power lines. They worked in tight quarters and pulled it off with ease. We will definitely be using them for future tree removal/trimming projects. Thank you!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

You can remove a small tree from your yard if there’s space for the tree to fall, you have the right tools and safety equipment, and you follow a clear plan of action. You’ll just want to follow the steps above carefully, and ideally, you will have experience doing similar tasks. If you have any doubts that you can do this project safely, though, you should hire a pro.

If it’s your property, then you can plant a tree near power lines, but it’s not the best idea. Any vegetation that grows within 10 feet or so of power lines will fall under the responsibility of the utility company, and they may trim or remove it as necessary. If you do move forward with your plan, try to choose a smaller ornamental tree, plant it as far away from the power lines as you can, and keep it trimmed to avoid future problems.

It could be anywhere from weeks to years for a dead tree to fall. A dead tree falls based on its weight, how it leans, the state of its roots, the state of decay, and what local windstorms are like, among other factors. Since it’s hard to predict the fall’s timing, it’s important to cut down a dead tree quickly and avoid any unpleasant surprises.

Some people prefer to leave or even carve a leftover stump, but we recommend removing it if possible. You can often dig out smaller trunks with a shovel once they have died and dried out. You can have stumps professionally removed, or request a service to grind them down to ground level so they can be replaced with other landscaping or objects.

A tree growing close to a house can pose several risks, but removal isn't always the only or best solution. Potential problems include roots growing into the foundation and causing structural cracks, branches damaging the roof or promoting moss growth, and debris clogging gutters, which can lead to water damage. Trees can also provide access for pests and encourage mold. However, a small, healthy tree may not be a problem, and for larger, established trees, strategic trimming can be a cheaper and more beneficial alternative to removal. It is generally recommended to take action for trees within 10 to 20 feet of your home, especially if they are unhealthy or encroaching. Your best bet is to consult a professional arborist who can assess the specific situation and provide expert advice.
