"These people did an excellent job of cutting back the trees we hired them to do. They took them from 20 to 25 feet down to 6 feet. They not only did the cutting, they also trimmed them to make them well groomed. They cleaned up all of the mess when done. They left nothing of the trash that was created by the job. I highly recommend this company to anyone and we are definitely going to use them again for our yard needs."

"Josh and his crew did an excellent job removing a big dead tree in my front yard. They chopped the tree down and cleaned up everything down to the last twig. They even left me with wood for the fireplace. I would highly recommend Battle Castle for any landscaping job!!"

"Santiago responded within minutes of receiving my project request and agreed to come out right away. He checked my system over, determined it was in good working order despite the recent freeze, then winterized the system. The cost was very reasonable! Great customer service!!"

"The job turned out excellent! Andres was informative and patient with someone who was not familiar with xeriscaping or southwest plants. He was also a good troubleshooter along with designing. Nellie in the office was welcoming and responsive. Any delay (minor and primarily due to weather) was communicated. The crew was great. The project involved clearing the backyard to the dirt and rebuilding, including new slab patio (with stamping). Front yard plants were also trimmed for a polished look."

"Tree Busters did a great job trimming are many, many trees.  Larry is an arborist and we discussed the best thing to do for our trees to keep them healthy and prevent damage.  HIs professionalism and knowledge was appreciated in deciding how to take down a dead tree.  They did a great job and I would hire them again.

"Josh and his wife were professionals. And they were on the ball since I called. They were knowledgeable and with a sense of urgency that I hardly see in Las Cruces any more. I guess my only concern would be who they have as a crew. The guys that did come to our site were hard working and efficient BUT I didnâ t like they didnâ t pick up their trash (from gatorade bottles we provided). They just left them in our yard. That could just be a cultural thing. Other than that we would definitely work with them again- as a matter of fact Iâ m already planning the next job as soon as weâ re done with our home remodel."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

You need to remove all branches affected by Dutch elm disease. If your tree has several affected branches, you will probably need to remove the entire tree. First, consult a pro to be sure that you’ve correctly identified it as an elm tree. Make sure the tree is properly disposed of with a plastic covering or through debarking, chipping, or burning.

A few signs a tree may be dead is if the leaves are dead and there are no signs of new blooms. You can also perform a scratch test on some of the branches to check the condition of the cambium layer beneath the bark.

If it is green, it is still alive, but if several are dry, brittle, and brown, the tree may be dying or dead. Always consult an arborist before assuming your tree is dead because you may be able to save it.

A chainsaw is the best tool to cut down a tree, but you may also use a handsaw or ax. You may also want to use a lopper or pole saw to remove limbs before cutting down the tree. Wear chainsaw chaps and protective gear, including eyewear and earplugs if you use a chainsaw. Again, if you’re unsure about how to use this tool, this project may be one to skip.

We don’t recommend DIY tree trimming for a few different reasons. First, the tools required to trim a tree can be costly, up to $1,100 or more, for the ladders and specialized saws needed. 

Safety is another concern, especially when working with more mature trees. As a guideline, you should only DIY tree trimming when branches are less than two inches in diameter. Any more, and the safety risk becomes too high, which could lead to catastrophe. For this job, it’s safest to let a tree-trimming professional assess the work needed.
