"I am very happy with Sami’s Tree Service! Sami came out quickly to provide an estimate, and the price was very reasonable. The office staff was friendly, responsive, and made scheduling the job easy without a long wait. On the day of the job, the crew arrived on time, was professional, courteous, and worked efficiently. They completed the job quickly and left the property spotless. Overall, it was a great experience from start to finish. I highly recommend Sami’s Tree Service!"

"The original project turned into an emergency project because of a storm that brought down two huge trees. Sage handled the removal of the debris of the fallen limbs and removed the trees. We were impressed with the crew. We will be contacting them for the original project in the near future. They left a very good impression."

"Sam and his crew were able to schedule my job quickly and were punctual on the scheduled date. He has heavy duty professional equipment and a crew that knows how to get the job done efficiently and safely. Pains were taken to make sure the rest of my property was kept safe as the tree was methodically disassembled, and I never had a concern as the job progressed through to its perfect conclusion. I've got some future work that Sam and his professional, reliable crew will be contacted for and I look forward to leveraging Sam and his Qualitylawn Tree Service again. Dial up Sam and Qualitylawn Tree Service if you're looking for a worry-free, reasonably-priced experience."

"I wouldn't recommend them. The guys are very nice. They came, told me to call them back but how could  I wait till after the winter now and say, hey the grass never grew. And they are not really in the general vicinity I'd rather use someone close by that I don't have to worry whether they are going to come or not or whatever. They said, if you have any problems just call, we'll come back. I didn't see the grass grow and I figured its winter time, let me wait but it never grew. I would not use them again. It is not that they did anything wrong, maybe I should have called them back. They don't live in my area, they came from...somewhere by the beach I think. The price was fine. They were good on the price. The guys weren't nasty, they were very nice, they said to call but when I am paying them money and then my grass doesn't grow, it is odd. They were punctual. They were professional but... When I told them you didn't put the seeding here, they did it but why do I have to tell them, they should know their job. I think that I am going to find someone closer."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Carefully pruning small roots no thicker than three inches in diameter won’t harm the tree. However, cutting larger roots may impact the tree's stability and nutrient absorption. It's advisable to consult an arborist or tree care professional to evaluate the root's size, the tree's health, and the potential impact of cutting. Proper tree pruning techniques and timing can minimize damage, but larger root removal may necessitate expert guidance to avoid compromising the tree's overall health and stability.

Yes, you can prune a palm tree with a chainsaw, but a chainsaw is overkill for a job like this. You risk damaging the tree if you make a bad cut. More commonly, you’ll need pruning shears or a serrated knife to trim a palm tree, or you can use a specialized pruning saw instead of a chainsaw.

While the fastest way to kill a tree is to simply cut it down, there are several other methods to choose from. You should hire a professional tree removal service to cut down a tree to ensure your personal and property safety. Some slower but effective options include treating or grinding the tree stump or using a basal bark treatment. 

Common signs that a tree is rotting include dead branches, a leaning trunk, peeling or cracked bark, leaf discoloration, and the presence of fungi. If you notice any of these signs, it’s best to hire an arborist near you to inspect your tree and determine if it can be saved or if it needs to come down.

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.
