"The crew showed up on time and promptly got to work trimming two large cottonwood trees in my yard. They did what we discussed during the initial visit, cleaned everything up, left the downed wood cut into manageable pieces for my friend to take away to use to heat her house this winter. The workers were pleasant and polite. They even showed me a photo of my roof to show that they had removed the Deadwood and leaves from the roof, which had caused problems in the past. I would definitely hire this business again."

Customers say: True professional

"We recently moved to NM and the yard at our home was neglected for a few years. The backyard needed to be cleaned up (including removing a few bushes and an old clothesline), a new irrigation system installed, and beds prepared for a variety of plants I want to install. Eric and his crew from Summersweet were excellent! I interviewed several landscapers and only Eric listened to what I wanted, offered his expert advice (his knowledge was gained thru both formal education and practical experience), and delivered what we agreed to have done! The Summersweet crew was hardworking and professional - it helped that I speak some Spanish. Carmela pleasantly and professionally handles all the behind the scenes logistics. Everything was done professionally and on time."

"Went fairly well although I expected more removed from tree for price quoted and paid .also forgot to trim top of driveway dead tree and pull down dangling dead limb. Be very specific when getting quote. Get what was agreed upon in writing. Paid way too much for work done. Friendly and courteous."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

In Santa Fe, if you notice large, unhealed pruning wounds, excessive sprouting from improper topping, or branches breaking during monsoon storms, it may be time to revisit past tree service projects. Other warning signs include persistent pest issues, visible root damage from earlier removals, unbalanced canopies, or trees struggling to recover after one or two growing seasons. These issues often signal that professional attention is needed.

Helpful?

In Santa Fe, keep tree service projects safer by setting up clear safety zones around work areas and scheduling work to avoid nesting bird seasons. Make sure children and pets stay hydrated and indoors during noisy or dusty periods. Remove debris promptly to prevent wind hazards, and check for any toxic plants exposed by digging. Coordinating work times around school or nap schedules also helps maintain a family-friendly environment.

Helpful?

For successful tree service projects in Santa Fe, start by reviewing local ordinances for tree size limits and seasonal restrictions. Schedule major pruning or removal for late fall or early spring, and test your soil for amendments suited to high-altitude conditions. Coordinate with utility companies for safe access, plan irrigation with water restrictions in mind, and consider property features like adobe walls or narrow lots when arranging equipment access.

Helpful?

In Santa Fe, homeowners often prune trees at the wrong time, such as right before monsoon season or during unpredictable temperature swings. Choosing non-native species that struggle in high-altitude conditions, over-watering new plantings, and attempting DIY removal of large trees are frequent mistakes. Ignoring overhead utility lines, skipping necessary permits, and using excessive mulch can also cause long-term problems with tree health and safety.

Helpful?

Santa Fe homes with adobe construction, flat roofs, or traditional architectural elements like vigas can make tree service projects more challenging. Narrow courtyards, unmarked underground utilities, and retaining walls may limit equipment movement. If your property has a septic system, plan safe routes for machinery to avoid damage. Discuss these features with your contractor to ensure your tree service project proceeds smoothly and safely.
