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 Two days later he came back and removed all of the outdated landscaping and irrigation system.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

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

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.

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. 

A tree can split because of high winds, a change in temperature, or from an infestation or tree disease. All of these factors can overlap, making a single cause difficult to pinpoint. While winter storms are some of the most common causes for a tree to split, it can also happen because of termites or rot.

Palm tree removal can cost anywhere between $100 and $1,800 depending on palm size, tree condition, labor, location, and the amount of prep work involved. With the necessary skills, a DIY palm tree removal for trees shorter than 15 feet can lower costs. However, it’s generally recommended that you hire a palm tree expert for tree removal.

Yes, forestry mulching can grind stumps, but the level of effectiveness depends on the equipment used. Drum mulchers can break down smaller stumps, but larger or deep-rooted stumps may require a dedicated stump grinder for complete removal. If full stump removal is necessary for replanting or construction, additional excavation may be needed. Always check with your forestry mulching provider to confirm whether they offer stump grinding and if their equipment is suitable for your specific needs.
