"I was very please with Mastership tree service- came today done in a flash taking away a fallen dead tree. He was very knowledgeable about trees when he came to see the job I called for and that impressed me. Alex keeps his promise by texting or phone and offered a very very affordable price . will defiantly use his service again."

"I move to Port Murray in January. The property had several dying trees and a huge pile of rotting trees, stumps, and branches at the edge of the back yard. It was a terrible eyesore. I had 3 arborists make recommendations and submit a proposal."

"This is my second time with this tree company. For some reason didn't find them in Angie's list, but fortunately found their phone number in my phonebook (saved the last time). The estimate was a little bit cheaper comparing to others (I used 4 companies to get a truly transparent picture of what needs to be done and prevent upselling). Surprisingly to me, none of the companies tried to upsell; their recommendations were the same (up to some extend). At the end, decided to go with BJ's, mostly because of the prior positive experience. The work was done next business day after my call (they even offered same day services, but I was unable to accommodate). The work was done in less than 2 hours! Everything was cleaned after. I will definitely call BJ's next time when I need tree services. Highly recommend!"

"We had a tree come down in a storm a couple of years back, I'ma be honest it's been a little while. That was 2 or 3 years ago. They did a phenomenal job. They cleaned up, almost cleaned up too well. We wanted them to leave more granite for the fireplace and stuff like that I had to tell them "Wait, don't shred them all" but they were very kind about setting things aside, dusting main pieces of wood that we wanted to keep for our fireplace and getting rid of everything else. They tidied up beautifully. They worked very fast. I don't know how many helpers they had, but they were really quick. It was a part of a tree that a lightning bolt took off the top, almost half. The tree forked about 20 ft above the ground and the lightning took off one of the two halves of the tree. Unfortunately, a little bit of it hit the roof of the house and punched a hole about the size of your fist into and got that patched up. The people did a phenomenal job getting what was on the lawn of the lawn. They showed up on time, right away. They were top notch."

"The estimate for removing nine 30 foot tall Douglas Firs from these folks at Beyond The Leaf came in $1300.00 less than any other estimate we received. When Giovanni explained how they were going to use a HUGE crane to remove one WHOLE TREE AT A TIME I was skeptical. But the morning of the job up drives this huge vehicle with a 3 axles and they all had separate steering. In 4 hours they hooked up each tree, cut them off at the base and proceeded to swing them over our house and into the street where branches were cut off and shredded and then the rest of the tree minus branches were fed into the chipper and BINGO - GONE. Three men cut, lifted, moved, shredded and then did a wonderful job of cleaning the tiny amount of debris that was left. And not one of my wifes flowers were stepped on. A FANTASTIC JOB AND WE WILL HAVE THEM BACK IN FALL TO DO OTHER TRIMMING WORK."

"We had a fabulous experience with A&T Tree service. They were a pleasure to work with. We have had a few estimates over the past few years and crazy expensive. A&T were the most reasonable and we will be using them again this spring to do another segment of our large yard. Kind and accommodating. Highly recommend and would look no further."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Licensing requirements for arborists, also known as tree surgeons, vary by state and municipality. Many areas require a license, which often involves specialized education and experience. Even if not mandated, it's wise to hire a licensed professional as they tend to have more experience. Beyond licensing, look for certifications from organizations like the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) or the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA), as this indicates a higher level of expertise. Certified arborists must typically pass a comprehensive exam. Always confirm that the arborist has a business license and is fully insured to protect yourself from liability. Seeking positive recommendations from local homeowners is also a good step in finding a qualified professional.

Pruning a tree is a yearly DIY job that involves removing small dead branches, leaves, and blooms to help the tree grow bigger and stronger. You can often complete the job with basic home gardening tools. Trimming a tree, however, removes larger sections to control the direction the tree grows in and protects your home, utility wires, and yard from potentially dangerous branches.

Trees are beneficial to the environment and wildlife. If you have an old tree, but it’s healthy, it may be best to avoid cutting it down. However, if it’s showing signs of bug infestation, disease, or is potentially hazardous, then you should contact a tree removal company to cut it down. 

If you are unsure whether you should have it removed or not, then speak with an arborist to determine what is best.

Sudden oak death and oak wilt are different diseases. Oak wilt first shows up in tree leaves while sudden oak death affects the branches and trunk. However, as symptoms in both can overlap, it’s best to consult a professional arborist tree expert for a proper diagnosis and development of a treatment plan.

There are a few differences between tree guying and tree staking. Tree guying requires anchor stakes that are shorter and stronger than regular stakes and are driven deeper into the ground at an angle away from the tree. Tree staking uses longer stakes that are set parallel to the tree and are used for smaller trees. Consult a local tree professional to determine which method is best for your tree.
