"I was very pleased with A&T tree service. The work included cutting down a tree, pruning a maple tree and large bush. They showed up on time, they were extremely courteous, the pricing was reasonable, the entire project and cleanup was outstanding. In fact, my neighbor was so impressed she hired them to do some work on her property. It was the best choice I ever made."

"Mike and all of his crew at Forever Green tree service are beyond amazing! They are professional, prompt, hard working, and very friendly. I have never seen or heard of a machine that can actually go over a house to cut down the trees in the back yard. I watched this amazing show from beginning to end. This hydraulic claw which looks a little like the claws in an arcade is moved over the house by Mike the owner. He has the controls in his hands. The claw grabs part of the tree and once in it's grip saws it off. Then Mike slowly brings that large part of the tree over the house and lays it in the yard. From there the shredder came, as Mike was cutting two other guys were shredding. These guys work in unison, everyone knows what to do and how to do it. This company is highly recommended !!! All the photos I took are too large for Angi's list except this one."

"Excellent!! They were the most professional service I have ever had. They saw I had a sprinkler system without me telling them and took the necessary precautions not to run the truck over the sprinkler heads. I had spring flowers that had started emerging and they took special care not to drop branches on them. They cleaned up so well, the yard was left in better condition than before they started. I would highly recommend them to anyone anytime. Their pricing came in lower than the other 2 estimates i received.."

"We noticed one very large dead tree on our property, right near some power lines.  Contacted Amazing Tree and Mauricio came the same day to look at the job.  He showed us that the tree was actually hollow from a carpenter ant infestation and advised that the work should not wait too long to be done as the tree posed a real danger.  He said he would not advise us to wait more than two weeks to get the job done.  We agreed.  He gave us a good price and said he would be back within the two week period to do the work. 
Two days later we learned that we would need to be out of town for a few weeks.  I called Amazing Tree and spoke to Mauricio's wife and told her of our dilemma and that we would be away.  The following day Mauricio left a message on our home phone saying not to worry and that the job would be done soon and he would be in touch when we returned.  I returned the call and left a message that they could call our cell and I would be happy to provide a credit card number by phone.  I did not hear back from them.
We arrived home three weeks later to find that all the work had been done perfectly.  I called and left a message for Mauricio to let him know that we were very pleased but wanted to pay him for the work.  He stopped by a few days later to pick up payment and said he wasn't worried about getting paid since he had done a job for us previously.
This is a fine contractor who is responsive and trustworthy and does quality work.  It is our pleasure to recommend him again.

Arborists questions, answered by experts

While there is a lot of debate about whether boiling water is strong enough to kill tree roots, it is not best to remove the roots from large, old trees. You may be able to weaken young roots enough to remove them manually, but boiling water will likely not do the trick for large root systems.

Signs include dead branches, growth over structures, diseases, pests, or roots impacting hardscapes.

Stump grinding consists of removing the visible part of the stump, but the roots remain intact. Depending on the tree and root system, the roots may still grow after stump grinding. If you are concerned about root growth and damage, you may want to consider having a stump removed completely.

The ideal depth of a tree notch depends on the tree, but it should usually be between 20% and 25% of the tree’s depth. However, if the tree is leaning towards the direction of the notch, it can be cut more shallowly—at as little as 10% of the depth. When the tree is leaning away from the direction it needs to be felled, you can cut deeper, closer to 30%.

No, homeowners insurance typically does not cover the cost of removing a dead, sick, or rotting tree that is still standing. Insurance is designed to protect against sudden and unexpected accidents, whereas a tree dying or rotting over time is considered a maintenance issue. Coverage usually only applies after a tree has fallen and caused damage to your property.
