"After requesting a quote, he called me immediately to set up an estimate for the job. Mr. Vargas was very professional, prompt and his prices were fair and reasonable. We agreed on the quote and set a day for the work to be completed. His workers showed up bright and early the following week and removed 3 very mature palm and 3 pine trees. They worked expeditiously and were clean. The following day they returned to grind the stumps; they even fixed any broken sprinklers or pipes that were accidentally damaged. Should I need anything done in the future, I would use their services again. Recommended to anyone looking for lawn work and removal."

"Kings owner, Louis, is truly a friend to his clients. One day I was on a hunting trip on an island in Northern Michigan waiting for the ferry. The lake was rough, the ferry wasn't running, and I was afraid I wouldn't make it back to the mainland in time to catch my flight back home to Las Vegas. Then I got a call from the HOA; the fire department had broken down the door to a rental condo and taken away our tenant. "Our security guard is waiting in the unit on overtime pay with the tenant's dog. Please come and take care of it right away." I didn't know what to do, so I called Louis. He dropped everything and went to my unit to make some emergency repairs to the door. He had been prepared to take the dog home if necessary, but the tenant returned. 

Louis has been extremely conscientious about satisfying my ideas for what I want as an outcome on a project. I have often asked for unique details and he has been very agreeable about redoing something that I'm not ecstatic about. On the other hand, he's also very good about coming up with creative ideas to accomplish a better result than I anticipated. 

His pricing has always been straightforward and very reasonable. Our jobs for Kings have ranged from $50 to $50,000. He has always been very reasonable. Actually, we feel comfortable in adding items to a project without discussing price because we can trust that we won't be gouged. 

Kings is a small outfit, so Louis has always been able to personally pay attention to how our project is coming along. He also knows how to find someone to do something that would be outside his area of expertise, e.g., custom building a new door.

We recommend Kings Landscape and Maintenance to anyone. If I were to build a new home, renovate an apartment building, rejuvenate an apartment that has been damaged or just maintain the landscaping; I'd hire Kings to do it."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally, you should prune around 20% of an apple tree’s growth—and never more than 30%. This means that if you have a severely overgrown tree, it can take a few seasons to prune it back enough to produce the healthiest fruit. 

If you’re dealing with a newly planted or juvenile tree, hold off on pruning beyond the initial shaping. Wait at least a couple of seasons into fruit production since pruning can increase the number of water sprouts and unproductive foliage.

You can use a felling ax to chop down a tree by following the same prep and steps as a chainsaw, but be prepared to use some muscle. For trees bigger than 7 inches in diameter, it can take some time and serious strength to cut down a tree using just an ax. 

Yes, you can prune a palm tree with a chainsaw, but a chainsaw is overkill for a job like this. You risk damaging the tree if you make a bad cut. More commonly, you’ll need pruning shears or a serrated knife to trim a palm tree, or you can use a specialized pruning saw instead of a chainsaw.

Trimming a tree can take anywhere from just two hours to a full day, depending on the age of the tree, the number of trees, and the species. Young trees are generally easier to trim, as their branches are often thinner in diameter and easier to reach compared to mature trees. They also tend to be healthier. If you haven’t trimmed your trees before or it’s been a while, the process could take even longer.

If you don’t stake a tree that needs support, it could be at greater risk of being damaged or failing completely, whether it uproots or falls over. That could cause damage to your property or other surrounding trees. If you want to grow healthy trees, you may need to stake them for best results.
