"Cesar and his team were phenomenal! They were prompt, respectful and kind. They trimmed the trees and hauled the branches away. A lot of work for a good price! We loved the service so much that we hired them again to build a fence in our front yard. We will probably use them for even more work around the house."

"Mr. Montoya met me at my house, the project site to give me a quote on the day and time he said he would. We talked about which trees needed to be cut down and trimmed up. Leroy gave me a quote for all, we agreed to move forward with the project with a day and time of arrival. Mr. Montoya arrived at said time, did the work agreed upon, cleaned up as he went about, left with the downed trees and limbs. I couldn’t have been happier with the project. I am recommending Montoya Tree Service, Leroy Montoya. Very Professional."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Trees are beneficial to the environment and wildlife. If you have an old tree, but it’s healthy, it may be best to avoid cutting it down. However, if it’s showing signs of bug infestation, disease, or is potentially hazardous, then you should contact a tree removal company to cut it down. 

If you are unsure whether you should have it removed or not, then speak with an arborist to determine what is best.

The costs vary from $250 to $5,000 per tree, depending on the size, complexity of the trimming, and labor.

There are a few differences between tree guying and tree staking. Tree guying requires anchor stakes that are shorter and stronger than regular stakes and are driven deeper into the ground at an angle away from the tree. Tree staking uses longer stakes that are set parallel to the tree and are used for smaller trees. Consult a local tree professional to determine which method is best for your tree.

Generally, you do not have the right to take fruit from a neighbor's tree, even if the branches overhang your property. The fruit is considered the property of the tree's owner. While you may have the right to trim branches that cross into your yard, the fruit on them typically still belongs to your neighbor. However, laws can vary by state and municipality. In some areas, branches that extend into your yard or trees that straddle a property line may entitle you to some of the fruit. The best course of action is to speak with your neighbor, as they may be happy to share. If a conversation is not possible, check your local regulations before picking any fruit.

Rock salt or Epsom salt can damage and kill tree roots over several weeks and can even assist in removing the tree's stump. However, you need to drill holes or cut into the stump and surface tree roots to inject them properly with the salt. Repeat the process every two weeks until the roots visibly rot away.
