"Bradley was able to begin my project the very next day. He was able to cut down a very large tree in an awkward place without damaging the shrubs and garden beds around it. He and his helper (Brandon) were able to complete the project within the day. They carted off the trunks and heaviest boughs and lugged the rest to the curb. They were even understanding and cheerful about coming back when some of the smaller debris had to be moved again (because I wasn't clear about where I wanted it). Their service was prompt, efficient and well-done. I definitely will call them again if the need arises and would recommend them to others."

"Very personalized service provided for the removal of 2 downed trees (1 medium sized and 1 very large tree.) Also did lot clearing from private road to water access. Provided before and after pictures and was in constant contact with myself and real estate agent with updates as to the progress of the work. Would definitely recommend to others and will hire hire again in the spring of 2022 for any additional lot clearing, if needed. Hired a family business because customer service is extremely important to me - and Brock Archer and company provided excellent customer service."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Trees should be pruned every two to five years, depending on its age and type. Young trees should be inspected and pruned every two to three years. Mature trees should be inspected and trimmed every three to five years, and fruit trees should be pruned annually with a careful eye on seasonal growth. Evergreens typically don’t need pruning, unless branches or limbs are damaged, diseased, or harboring pests.

There are a few general rules to follow that will help you prune your trees correctly. One of the most important rules is to prune during the correct season for the type of tree you have. Typically, pruning should be during late winter. For younger trees, you should not remove more than a ⅓ of the tree's crown when pruning. Also, remember to remove dead and diseased branches first, then proceed with pruning the rest of the tree.

If you’re buying a small tree with lots of room to grow, expect to pay around $100 to $200 for a potted version. But if you’re buying a larger tree—say one over 10 feet—prices rise, starting in the $500 to $600 range and increasing quickly from there. Keep in mind that paying for professional palm tree planting or transplanting services will increase the cost.

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.

No, homeowners insurance typically does not cover the cost of removing a dead, sick, or rotting tree that is still standing. Insurance is designed to protect against sudden and unexpected accidents, whereas a tree dying or rotting over time is considered a maintenance issue. Coverage usually only applies after a tree has fallen and caused damage to your property.
