"I had a tree removed with stump grinded and another tree trimmed. They scheduled and communicated when they would be arriving. They made sure that the work was completed to my satisfaction and did a good job cleaning up after the work was complete."

"Removal of 6 shade trees was done professionally, on schedule, and importantly with no property damage. They followed all of the rules including having insurance and having me get a permit which my township needed. Only improvement could be communications. I would definitely use them again."

"I am very happy with the service provided by CC Tree Experts. They will be the first company I call for this service from now on. 1) Responsive. They were the first ones out with a quote (within a day). My prior service took a week to get a guy out. 2) Fair. Of the quotes I got, they had a fair price.. no over charging. 3) Efficient. On the day of, they were running by 8 am with all vehicles and tools. They were basically done by 11:30. 4) Safe. I watched them slice and dice a tall old tree with control and precision. 5) Clean. The tree and area was chocked with overgrowth and vines. They navigated it all and left the ground clean and debris free. It did take 3 weeks to get work started. I blame that on their high demand. Book early."

"The two men who showed up were very polite.  They worked quickly and did a beautiful job cleaning the leaves from behind my garage, my flower beds and lawn.  I have many trees so there were plenty of leaves.  They blew them neatly into a pile where they could be picked up by my town's leaf truck.  I was extremely pleased with their work and would most definitely use them again.

"We had a fantastic experience with Padilla Tree Service. We inquired about a quote for the work we needed done and they were out on location within a few days to scope the work. They were very reasonable with price and could quickly tackle the job. Very professional, quick, tidy, and took the time to leave the place unscathed of any leftover debris, trash, or excess leaves. Will absolutely hire them again for any future work our facility needs."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

To maintain trees on a commercial property, perform regular pruning, monitor for diseases, and apply fertilization to promote healthy growth. It is also important to remove any hazardous branches to keep the trees healthy and prevent potential liability issues.

In most cases, your neighbor is responsible for roots from their tree that cause damage to your property. If your pavement, the foundation of your home, or a fence is damaged by roots from a neighbor’s tree, you likely will have legal recourse for financial relief. While it’s better to notify your neighbor of any problems you notice as soon as they arise to avoid costly damage, there are some instances where filing a civil suit is your only recourse. Your homeowner’s insurance company might wish to do so on your behalf if you file a claim.

Some fast-acting products can rot a tree stump in four to six weeks. Keep in mind, these products contain harsh chemicals that may prevent regrowth in the area. Other products, like fertilizer that contains lots of nitrogen, can enhance the process and rot a stump in about a year. (This is compared to the ten years it can take naturally for a stump to rot.)

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.

According to scientists at Penn State University, spotted lanternflies do not typically kill the trees and plants they feed on, but they can cause branches and segments to die off. However, they have been found to kill cultivated grapes, which can have devastating consequences for vineyard owners and regions that heavily rely on vineyards to create jobs and generate revenue. They have also killed the Ailanthu altissima, known as the tree of heaven, though this is classified as a noxious and invasive weed tree.
