"Called, quick quote and showed up on day promised and let the site cleaned up. Had no luck with just calling around and hired him via home advisor. Good experience I showed a picture of the trees and that was sufficient to get a good quote."

"Removed a tree on the side of my house that would hit it when the wind would blow and chip shingles off of my new roof, also trimmed some other trees that were chipping the shingles as well. They were great! Cleaned up everything as well as walked the job with me when finished. I will definitely be using them again as there are some more trees that I will need removed in the future, and I will also recommend them to my clients for any tree work as I am a realtor and work with a lot of foreclosed homes. Thanks!"

"PME tree service is a highly competent, highly professional and extremely knowledgeable tree service. What I like the most is that they do not cut down trees just to cut down trees to make money. The example being that I had two trees to be addressed. One for sure was dead or would be shortly (turned out to be dead) and one I thought was dangerous. PME's arborist explained to me that the tree (completely healthy by the way), Was not dangerous and should not be cut down. They could have simply cut it down and doubled my cost and their profit. That is why I trust them completely, would not have anyone else touch my trees."

"Excellent experience. The scheduling was seamless and the two man crew arrived on time on the specified day and worked hard. They cleared my entire backyard of leaves and pruned several bushes and small trees. I was very pleased with the result. Will definitely hire again."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Only trim palm trees as needed, which is usually about once per year. However, don't stick to that schedule if the palm tree doesn't need it. Avoid trimming palm trees when possible. It’s best to trim palm trees only when you notice a buildup of dead fronds. That said, leave the brown fronds during the dormant season because this organic matter helps protect the tree from the cooler weather.

No. Topping a tree refers to severely cutting down all its major branches and tree in a straight line. It was once recommended for streetside deciduous trees but has fallen out of practice. Topping leads to many problems, removing so much of the tree that many trees struggle to survive and become much more vulnerable to insects and diseases. Also, it doesn’t really help tree growth as once assumed and often leads to an ugly appearance of many sprouting stems in competition to become new main branches.

In most cases, you should not use a pruning seal on trees after trimming. Applying a sealant can interfere with the tree's natural healing process, and it does not guarantee protection from pathogens. Instead of sealing the cut, the best practice is to support the tree's natural recovery by providing it with plenty of water and a dormant-style fertilizer. However, there are exceptions. Pruning seals may be recommended for very vulnerable species, like elm trees, in areas where dangerous diseases such as Dutch elm disease are prevalent. In these specific situations, the protection offered by a sealant can outweigh its downsides. For advice tailored to your situation, especially after cutting large branches, it is best to consult a local tree trimming professional.

A dead tree should always be cut down, because it could fall and cause injuries or damage, and it can also attract insects like carpenter ants. A tree that’s diseased beyond repair should also be cut down, but it’s not always easy for a homeowner to tell. Signs of disease include dying branches, a hollow trunk, leaning, and discolored or missing leaves, but your best bet is to hire a local arborist who can evaluate the tree and tell you if it can be saved or should be cut down.

The best tools for tree removal include a chainsaw for large trees, an ax for notching and cutting down small trees, and a wedge to help control the direction a tree falls in. A hatchet can be useful for very small trees, but won’t be effective for medium to large trees.
