"A prompt response to our request for a quote on removing 3 trees, grinding the stumps, and trimming of arborvitaes in our backyard. Justin, the owner, was personable, professional, and provided a reasonable quote, as well as being able to start the job in a matter of days. He and his crew were hardworking, efficient, and did an exceptional job cleaning up the yard of all debris. It was a pleasure doing business with his company and we will most definitely utilize his services in the future. They excel at customer service."

"I cannot imagine a more professional and responsible tree removal outfit. As the tree was being cut down, all debris and branches were immediately scooped up and removed. It was amazing to see Logan's five man team operate so smoothly; each man knew precisely what was to be done at every moment. I am so glad we hired Logan Moore and his company!"

"We had a large group of very tall dead ash trees removed. The trees were located in a difficult location, but they did a fantastic job of removing all the trees, with everything cleaned up. Also, the price was reasonable, especially considering the magnitude of the job."

"Justin did a wonderful job trimming the large Oak and Birch tree in our front yard. We were extremely impressed with his knowledge, professionalism, and attention to detail. Not only do our trees look amazing the additional sunlight that the trimming of our trees provides will give our lawn the opportunity the grow and prosper. We highly recommend Highland Tree Service for your next landscaping project! Shawn and Amy Stewart"

"Paul was very personable and knowledgeable. He cut down several dead, very tall old trees in the back of our lot. It was done efficiently. The trees were cut down and taken away and debris cleaned up sufficiently. I would recommend Muolo's Tree Service and if need further tree removal in the future will most likely be calling on his again."

"Our backyard ground cover was out of control and needed to be removed, along with raking and removing leaves from our easement and general spring clean-up. Jay was great to work with from start to finish. This was not an easy job, but he and his crew had our yard looking beautiful in under three hours. We definitely will be using Snyder & Sons Lawn and Landscaping for fall and spring clean-up in the future, as well as other landscaping projects.."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Dutch elm disease can’t harm humans. In fact, according to Cal Fire, bark beetles aren’t even typically dangerous to trees unless that tree is already weakened. The problem comes when Dutch elm disease kills a tree. That tree is more at risk of falling and catching fire, which can pose a serious threat.

If you’re planning on keeping the tree, unless the roots are invasive, there’s no need to remove them, as doing so can cause damage to the tree. If the tree has been cut down and the stump and roots are left, grinding and removing the stump can cause root decay for some species. For other species, the stump and roots will need to be removed to prevent pests, disease, and possible tree regrowth.

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. 

Coverage varies quite a bit by policy, but most homeowners' insurance policies will cover $500 to $1,000 of the cost of removing a tree. Additionally, if your tree causes damage to your property, like your house, many policies will cover some or all of the costs to repair the damage, depending on why the tree fell.

Trees provide many benefits, including shade, habitat for local wildlife, and cleaner air, so it’s always a good idea to try an alternative strategy like crown reduction before you chop one down. But sometimes, cutting down a tree is the only option (like if it’s severely diseased). A licensed arborist can assess the tree and recommend the best course of action.
