"I have a very large Japanese Maple tree which is very dear to me. I hired Lemus to trim it as well as a very large Maple. While they were here, I decided to also remove a diseased Hemlock Tree. All 3 trees were meticulously worked on. Their professionalism was outstanding and they did a great job on all of them. The price was also reasonable and the crew showed up on time. Cleanup was also done satisfactorily. I highly recommend Lemus Tree Service and More."

"They were very professional, friendly and got the job done. They cleaned up the brush with a chipper and raked up the rest and got rid of it. They stacked the wood to dry for my winter supply. Thank you Twisted Tree Company Charlie Rose owner and his crew. I will know who to call when I need tree work done in the future."

"If I could give them higher than a five star rating I would. They came out quickly to do the estimate, and within days of that my trees were down. Professional, friendly, outstanding service. If I need to rework in the future they are the only people I will call."

"We were very pleased with the outcome. Alec is a very experienced certified arborist with excellent credentials and it shows in the way he approaches his work . He was very pleasant and friendly. He first gave us an accessment of the overall health and condition of our trees . Then he took the time to explain everything he was going to do and why he was doing it . He always asked first whether we were okay with what he planned to do. The result was excellent. We were very pleased with the outcome and we learned a lot about our trees in the process. We feel his fee was very much in line with his level of expertise. Trees not only add to the overall aesthetics of a property, they also contribute to the well being of our environment and add to your property value. So it was very important to us that we get a qualified person for this project. We highly recommend Roots &!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

If you don’t cut down a dead, dying, or diseased tree, it can become a nesting place for pests like mosquitos, bees, beetles, wasps, fly larvae, and more. Some pests will live in the tree, while others will feed off the decaying wood. Unhealthy trees are also more likely to fall over, potentially injuring people and causing damage to your property.

While it’s best to have access to large, healthy, strong trees in a safe position, treehouse living is still possible without them. Contractors can fit tree posts to build the structure onto or use posts as additional support alongside the trees themselves. If you’re in doubt about the suitability of the trees on your land, consult with a local treehouse builder before you start the project.

Finding a reliable arborist starts with researching specialists in your area and checking their licensing and certifications. Use online resources like the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to conduct research on each company. Next, contact the arborist and ask the following questions to see whether they are the right fit for your project:

  • Do you handle or specialize in dealing with the issue I’m having?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Do you have any third-party certifications?

  • What equipment and strategies do you plan to use?

If a disease has attacked and destroyed the roots, then the tree may fall over as soon as it has died or while part of it is still alive. Trees that die with their roots left in place tend to stay standing for much longer, but those roots will decay eventually, allowing gravity to do the rest.
