"Alex and crew from Vargas Tree Service did an excellent job planting the trees and plants for me. They did so much work and did a great job I'll definitely have them back to do the backyard landscaping. I would recommend them to anybody that needs landscaping and tree planting needs."

"Eric with Vargas Landscaping started by cutting down and removing several trees which was done in one day. He and the crew did a fantastic job. They showed up on time and completed the job that we were promised. Two days later he came back and removed all of the outdated landscaping and irrigation system. He replaced all the plants and rock landscaping in three days. He installed lighting for our new path along with new pavers. He is honest and did what he promised. We would highly recommend."

"Having read consistently good reviews about this company on Angie's List, Google Maps and Yelp, I originally contacted Henrie Tree Service on 02/08/2018 regarding a very tall, now 24-year-old Afghan (Mondell) pine tree in my front yard that was showing signs of blight (brown needles, etc.) especially near the top of the tree. The owner, Duane Henrie, proved to be a very knowledgeable (an arborist) and pleasant fellow who was by no means in a hurry and took his time to explain everything when he came by to see at no-charge me that afternoon. He recommended a wait and see approach with regular deep watering, "Super Thrive" applications and "Bayer Advanced Tree & Shrub Protect" for one year or so before any more radical measures such as tree removal should even be considered. Well, in light of this good first experience, I did once again call on Duane Henrie and his crew to remove 2 large and essentially dead bottlebrush shrubs (including stump grinding to bottom) in my backyard on 03/09/2018. They were right on time at 07:00 a.m. as scheduled. Everything went very smoothly and all the work was completed in little over one hour. You'd never know that any plants had once been located in the work area(s); everything was left clean as a whistle and this included repairing any damage that the stump grinding may have caused to my nearby PVC irrigation line. My total cost was $245.00. Personally, Duane and his employees strike me as being one of the best tree service companies in the Las Vegas metropolitan area and the posted reviews all bear this out. Since they keep a busy schedule and are in demand throughout the year, I have already arranged a return visit for July 2018 to trim the 4 palm trees on my property. If you are looking for a truly professional and competent tree service experience by an arborist (not just a landscape service provider who claims to be in the know about all things green and beautiful, but really isn't), then perhaps you too should give Duane Henrie's company a try? If you do, I am quite certain that you will not be disappointed!"

"I phoned 4 contractors to get bids on this job.  Mike Lawrence came out from Land View.  He was courteous, punctual and creative with the design and materials used for the job.  He monitored the job throughout and made sure it was completed well and in a timely manner.  The crew was polite and showed up on time each day.  They were concerned for the safety of my dogs,  and they left the job site clean.  I have gotten many compliments from neighbors about how my yard looks!  I am very satisfied with the services I received from Land View and MIke.

Arborists questions, answered by experts

A tree growing close to a house can pose several risks, but removal isn't always the only or best solution. Potential problems include roots growing into the foundation and causing structural cracks, branches damaging the roof or promoting moss growth, and debris clogging gutters, which can lead to water damage. Trees can also provide access for pests and encourage mold. However, a small, healthy tree may not be a problem, and for larger, established trees, strategic trimming can be a cheaper and more beneficial alternative to removal. It is generally recommended to take action for trees within 10 to 20 feet of your home, especially if they are unhealthy or encroaching. Your best bet is to consult a professional arborist who can assess the specific situation and provide expert advice.

It takes anywhere from three to seven years for a stump to decompose on its own. This timeframe can depend on the kind of tree and your climate. The lower to the ground the stump is, the faster it rots. If you kill a tree stump with salt, boiling water, herbicide, light deprivation, or burning, the tree stump decomposes faster. 

Bradford pear trees bloom in early spring with small white flowers. They typically flower for at least two weeks. In bloom, these trees often emit a foul-smelling odor that’s often compared to rotting fish. Bradford pear trees will sometimes bloom in the fall due to drought or other stress-inducing conditions. 

Tree roots are hearty and complex systems, so they don’t die immediately after the rest of the tree is removed. If you leave the root system in place, it takes anywhere from two to seven years for it to run out of nutrients. It is worth noting, however, that the roots stop growing and expanding after cutting down the rest of the tree.

The best tools for tree removal include a chainsaw for large trees, an ax for notching and cutting down small trees, and a wedge to help control the direction a tree falls in. A hatchet can be useful for very small trees, but won’t be effective for medium to large trees.
