"During the initial visit I was given complete information about how and when the tree would be removed along with the cost. On the day they were scheduled to remove the tree the men arrived exactly at the time I had been given and they took the tree down, disposed of all pieces of the tree and cleaned up the property of all debris. The experience was excellent and I would not hesitate to call them again."

"We were very happy and impressed with the service we got from USAF. They were prompt and very very clean. There was little left from the trees taken down we were delighted that we chose this company. They're price was not the lowest or the highest of all our quotes but worth every penny. Great bunch of tree experts."

"My wife and I hired Maple Tree and Landscaping after dealing with various landscapers over the years that just did not work out how we wanted to. Maple Tree and Landscaping was recommended to us by one of my wifes friends and I can honestly say I have never been happier with how my yard has come along. The gentleman named Dario is such a professional and his work will speak for itself. If I could rate them more than 5 stars I would in a heartbeat. If you are looking for a Landscaping service, look no further."

"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."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

A tree branch should start to form roots in about three months. It can take about a year for a tree branch to develop roots strong enough to go in the ground. For best results, start several branches because, no matter how closely you follow instructions, they won’t all form roots. Compost any that aren’t thriving.

Lightning can cause massive damage, fires, and openings for other threats like bugs or fungal diseases. Barring any large fires or explosions, it’s difficult to tell how much damage a lightning strike has done until after a thorough inspection. Contact local authorities immediately if lightning strikes a tree in your yard and it causes a fire or explosion.

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

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%.

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.
