"Sami came by when promised, gave a quote better than I expected, showed up on the date promised and the time promised! The whole project of 3 tree removals took less time than anticipated and they clean up very nicely. If needed, will definitely use again. I am impressed which hasn't happened with me in a long time. Thank you Sami's Tree Service."

Customers say: True professional

"This is a great team. Good references and the owner came out to give me a quote. They were the least cost bid to take down 6 Ash trees and their work was flawless. A nice crew, affable, hard working and all in safety gear. They ground stumps, chopped up and removed all the wood I did not want to keep. We included some trimming and mulching which left the yard in top notch condition. I would do business with them again and highly recommend this company."

"Lou and his team were outstanding.  No slackers, and Lou kept them busy doing tree-work.  I took the day off to be available in case of questions, and I'm glad I did because Lou brought up issues as he found them and we were able to steer the crew towards doing the things I cannot (cutting down trees) and away from the things I can do (raking up tree stump grindings, for example).  By the way, NOTHING got in the way of that stump-grinder... stump... rocks... nothing survived it.

They arrived at 8:15AM and stayed through 4:15PM.  I'm happy to host their sign on my front yard for a while to let others know I'm pleased with the job they did.

Thanks all!

"Samuel of QualityLawn removed 5 fallen trees from my property. He and his crew were diligent, hardworking and professional. During the estimate process, I expressed concern about his truck damaging my asphalt driveway. He took note and on the day of the job he left the truck on the street and used manual labor and small machinery to lug everything back to the street. He probably saved me thousands of dollars from avoiding asphalt damage. Beyond this, during execution of the job, Samuel was easy to work with and answered all my questions to insure everything was done to my satisfaction. He and his crew cleaned up everything and left the property immaculate. I would never hire anyone else but him for tree work. I wish he was closer to me because I would have hired him as my landscaper also!"

"They came when I requested, pretty much on time. Maria called when they were on their way. They cut down 3 trees, neatly stacked them in the wooded area of my yard at my request and cut the trunks down as far as they could in just a few hours. Wonderful cleanup, no wood chips any where, nicely stacked wood logs. great job. Maria then called later that day and asked if everything went the way I wanted. Of course I said yes. Will definitely hire them again. Thank you."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Tree roots can take weeks to years to die, depending on the method you use. Chemical herbicides take the least amount of time—typically between three and four weeks—while homemade methods, like covering an old stump with leaves, could take between seven and eight years. If you’re unsure which method to use or how quickly you need to act, consulting with a pro is always a good idea.

A palm tree's lifespan typically ranges from 40 to 100 years, though some species can live much longer. For example, certain types of Date Palm trees can live for over 200 years. The exact longevity of a palm tree is influenced by several factors, including its species, size, climate, and growing conditions. To maximize your palm's lifespan, provide proper care and maintenance, such as ensuring it gets enough sunlight, water, and nutrients, and protecting it from pests and diseases. For expert maintenance tips, consider consulting a professional arborist.

Some trees, such as silver maples, birches, sycamores, and scotch pines, shed their bark naturally. If your tree is not one that does this, it might have fallen prey to pests, fungi, or diseases. It could also simply be suffering from an extreme weather change, such as a snowstorm or heat wave. If you’re still stumped, consulting with a pro can help you diagnose your tree’s specific problem.

Yes, it’s possible to overwater a newly-planted tree. Daily watering is great for the first few weeks, but it’s important not to go overboard. Excessive watering can lead to various problems, including root rot, fungal diseases, and a lack of root development.

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.
