"The crew arrived on time and did the work discussed. Thy were pleasant and cleaned up leaving my yard in fine shape. I had some concerns that spring bulbs that had already emerged would be damaged…not the case. All my bulbs survived without harm. I will use Sterling’s Tree Service again."

"Will and his crew did a great job. Nice guys, gave great advice in regards to trees that showed signs of decay. They showed up on time and completed on time. The crew took down some trees very close to my house and my next-door neighbor's house with precision and no damage to either property. Not an easy job! The guys also took some deadfall from a past storm, which was very helpful to us. All the guys were nice to talk to, very accommodating, took the extra step to go above and beyond. Dropped trees with precision!! Also left me with a nice supply of firewood cut into 24 or 36-inch long logs for my fireplace. Please note that prior to hiring Minimally Invasive, I had requested quotes from 7 other companies. 2 were no-shows, and out of the other 5, they either grossly overbid the job or seemed like they would be abrasive to deal with or just plain unreliable. One could not even tell me which month he could do it in. When Will and the crew finished the job, I told the guys that he (they) are my tree guys for life. Great group of guys, worked their rear ends off and were respectful of my property."

"An unexpected surprise to learn after talking with Heather how reliable, efficient and reasonable they were. I called to have a couple trees removed on our property and Chris was kind enough to make a suggestion to take another tree down that was already dead. It was well worth the money and Chris and his staff did an excellent job cleaning up and Hauling everything away. I would highly recommend this firm and I plan on using them again. Heather is also a delight to deal with. She will return your call immediately or send you a text whatever you prefer give them a try you won't be disappointed!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally, you’ll want to avoid pruning more than 25% of the tree’s canopy at one time. While pruning your tree is important, it’s possible to do it too often or to go too far. Again, this is why hiring a tree trimming pro to do the work is wise. However, if you do decide to DIY, going slow and trimming gradually is the name of the game.

Hiring an arborist or tree surgeon is usually more expensive than a standard tree company, but it is often worth the investment. Arborists have education and certifications that standard companies typically lack, leading to a more professional, expert-level service. Their expertise is particularly valuable for diseased or infested trees, as they can ensure safer removal and help prevent the issue from spreading. Additionally, arborists may be necessary for work near power lines, as uncertified companies are often not permitted to service these trees. If your goal is to preserve the health of your trees, an arborist is the best choice. Their services, such as stump grinding, are also performed with greater expertise to ensure a safe depth that won't cause your lawn to collapse over time.

You can trim just one side of the tree, especially when that side is growing near something like a power line or a home. Pros will carefully trim the tree back until it is safe from that structure. While this is common, it also needs to be done with the utmost care, as pruning or trimming away at one side of the tree may make it structurally unsound. This instance is yet another where hiring a pro is wise, especially if power lines are involved.

According to scientists at Penn State University, spotted lanternflies do not typically kill the trees and plants they feed on, but they can cause branches and segments to die off. However, they have been found to kill cultivated grapes, which can have devastating consequences for vineyard owners and regions that heavily rely on vineyards to create jobs and generate revenue. They have also killed the Ailanthu altissima, known as the tree of heaven, though this is classified as a noxious and invasive weed tree.

Steer clear of the area and contact your utility company immediately. It will have a website portal and/or a phone number to report downed trees and electrical issues. If the tree appears to be on public land, you may want to call your local government and report the issue there, too.
