"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 Two days later he came back and removed all of the outdated landscaping and irrigation system.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."

On 2/10/16, I called this landscaper to have my 7 palm trees trimmed. The day before, I received a notice from my landlord informing me that I had 5 days to get the dead fronds removed. I pulled up Angie’s List and read the reviews of 4 or 5 A-rated landscapers. The first few I checked out had a closing time of 4pm (it was after 4 when I got the notice from the landlord), so when I checked out Land View Landscape I was happy that they were open until 5pm.

When I called and explained my circumstances, the secretary said that they would be able to send out someone the next day and that the work would be done within the next 5 days. When the rep. came on 2/11, he quoted me a cost of $40 per tree (in my estimation an excellent bargain, given the height of the trees and the number of fronds that had to be removed). The rep. told me that he would try to get someone out to do the job on 2/12, but that if he couldn’t he would have someone do it within the time frame I was working with.

As it turned out, the workers were able to come over on 2/12, just two days after I hired them! I thought it would be at least a week before I could get someone to trim the trees. It took only 50 minutes for one guy to trim all 7 trees and he and his buddy on the ground did an excellent job, including cleaning up and hauling away a truck load of fronds. Thank you very much Land View Landscape for doing such an excellent job and for giving us the peace of mind of doing it within a very tight time frame.

Arborists questions, answered by experts

A tree branch should start to form roots in about three months. It can take about a year for a tree branch to develop roots strong enough to go in the ground. For best results, start several branches because, no matter how closely you follow instructions, they won’t all form roots. Compost any that aren’t thriving.

The cost of trees varies massively based on the size of the tree and the species. A small Colorado spruce can cost as little as $30, but a golden rain tree of the same size can cost $90. Large trees can cost $1,500 or more, depending on their species and height.

Maple trees start the growing season by developing small groups of red flowers where the tree's fruit, the samaras, will appear in the coming weeks. Later in spring, the samaras, which many call whirlybirds or similar names, develop into single-winged seed carriers that spin when falling or drifting in the wind. 

Generally speaking, you’ll want to avoid flush cuts, which are cuts made as extremely close to the trunk or main branch. These cuts can weaken your tree, lower its natural defense mechanisms, and even cause decay. You’ll also want to avoid tree topping, which is the total removal of the leader and upper main branches of a tree. 

Most pros will advise against either of these methods, which is why hiring a pro is often the best choice when it comes to tree trimming.

We don’t recommend DIY tree trimming for a few different reasons. First, the tools required to trim a tree can be costly, up to $1,100 or more, for the ladders and specialized saws needed. 

Safety is another concern, especially when working with more mature trees. As a guideline, you should only DIY tree trimming when branches are less than two inches in diameter. Any more, and the safety risk becomes too high, which could lead to catastrophe. For this job, it’s safest to let a tree-trimming professional assess the work needed.
