"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

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. 

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.

It takes anywhere from three to seven years for a stump to decompose on its own. This timeframe can depend on the kind of tree and your climate. The lower to the ground the stump is, the faster it rots. If you kill a tree stump with salt, boiling water, herbicide, light deprivation, or burning, the tree stump decomposes faster. 

Sometimes, knowing when you need tree-trimming services is straightforward, and other times, you have to do some investigating. Some tell-tale signs that you should have your tree trimmed include:

  • A poorly-formed tree with unruly branches, which makes the tree appear odd-shaped. 

  • A tree with tall or large branches that interfere with power lines or your home’s exterior.

  • A tree that provides too much shade in the yard due to branch overgrowth.

If you don’t cut down a dead, dying, or diseased tree, it can become a nesting place for pests like mosquitos, bees, beetles, wasps, fly larvae, and more. Some pests will live in the tree, while others will feed off the decaying wood. Unhealthy trees are also more likely to fall over, potentially injuring people and causing damage to your property.
