"I called several companies to remove two very large trees. I had a few call me back. I had one reschedule and others said they were too busy. Randy called me, scheduled a time to come out and actually showed up. He gave me a quote and was here the next day to do the work. He and his helper cut the trees down and removed and hauled everything away! I would recommend this company highly, and will use them again for other work!"

"Spoke to several contractors about removing 60+-year-old trees due to circumstances out of our control that created a quick deadline for completion. Two of the trees were in a very difficult location with power lines above. Randy not only responded quickly to our call for a bid, but also was professional, knowledgeable, and honest about the project. We knew immediately he was the one to hire. The crew was professional, respectful and did a great job throughout the weeklong project. Despite complications and weather, they continued to handle themselves professionally and completed the project as promised. We would highly recommend them to anyone needing any type of work on their trees or property. We have used other tree services in the past and have been disappointed every time. I would tell anyone needing trees trimmed or removed, don't mess around with anyone else, call Northern Nevada Construction, LLC. also know as Mountain G.E.M. Services. It will be the smartest move you can make. Your project will be completed as bid, cost you less than other companies, will be completed as you wanted and they clean up the debris. You can breathe a sigh of relief that your project is done the right way by professionals who are also some of the nicest people we’ve met in a long time."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Bleach can potentially kill some types of delicate ornamental trees, but for the most part, it will only kill the foliage it comes in contact with. Applying bleach is not an effective method of killing a tree. A better option is to use an herbicide, which is a chemical compound designed to effectively kill a tree. 

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.

Dead trees are dangerous for several reasons. They are structurally compromised and prone to branch or trunk failure, which can pose a significant safety risk to people, vehicles, and nearby structures. Dead trees can also harbor pests like termites, which may spread to other trees or your home. If a tree died from a disease, it could spread the illness to healthy trees. Additionally, the dry wood is highly flammable, increasing fire risk.

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.

The best time to transplant a tree is when it is dormant. For many trees, this means either in the fall after the leaves have dropped (around October or November) or in early spring before new growth begins (around March). The ideal timing can depend on the type of tree. Deciduous trees do well when moved in early spring or fall, while evergreens are best transplanted in early spring or late summer. For example, pine trees are best moved in early fall, but maples prefer late fall. Avoid transplanting in winter, as the frozen or hard, cold soil poses a significant risk to the roots and prevents the tree from acclimating properly.
