"Good communications, we needed about 3 cubic yards of mulch for our front garden. Worked on my timeline and got the mulch installed in about 90 minutes. Cleaned up after the work was done. I had them use our wheelbarrow and rake as they had none. Just some young men just starting out. Did a good job"

"Arborscaper knows what they are doing which was good because I didn't have a clue. They are willing to work with you to do what it takes to make you satisfied with the work from start (estimate) to finish (clean up) in the process. I am supremely happy with the work done and will be doing more work in the future with Arbor. I highly recommend Arbor if you have tree trimming/removal needs."

Arborists 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.

Most jobs take 2-8 hours, but extensive trimming may take multiple days.

Transplanting a palm tree is a similar process except for a couple of important differences. First, their root ball doesn’t need to be as large as a “true” tree, which makes them a bit easier to dig up and move around. Second, they struggle more with taking root and staying upright in a new location, so it’s important to give them extra support when staking. 

A serrated knife will work for cutting off small palm tree fronds, about 1 inch in diameter. For larger fronds, you will need pruning shears. You may also use a pruning saw, and if your palm tree is especially tall, an extended pole saw can help you reach the brown fronds around the trunk.

The best time to cut down a tree is during its dormant season, typically in winter or early spring, after all the leaves have fallen. Removing a tree during this period is advantageous for several reasons. Frozen ground helps secure the tree stump, protects the surrounding landscape from damage, and reduces the risk of the tree falling in an unintended direction. With the leaves gone, there is less risk of the tree's foliage getting tangled with other trees. Additionally, since this is often a slower season for tree services, you may be able to hire a professional at a lower rate. This dormant period is also the best time for tree trimming.
