"I received a response and call back immediately. A man of his word! Came by immediately for a quote and set appointment for upcoming project. They were on time and went straight to work. Extremely professional. I would recommend them hands down and would do business with this company in the future. The cost of the project was extremely fair. Absolutely no complaints. They did a wonderful job. I had stumps removed that I paid another company to do years ago. I ended up having to have it done again, but this time it was done correctly. Do not waste your time or money, going else where. You will not be disappointed going with this company."

"Work was done punctually, safely, swiftly and with our backyard gazebo, shed, fence, etc in mind. All workers were courteous. They were the only company that we didn't have to take apart our fence and use the neighbors yard to enter. The owner Paul was wonderful to work with and always returned text messages. Cost was cheaper than all other companies and still excellent work and customer service. Highly recommend!"

"First workers did not trim bushes as requested & left mess & disgusting trash littered all over my backyard that I had to clean up. After bringing this to the attention of the company they quickly came out & trimmed the bushes as requested & even did extra trimming of trees in backyard at no extra charge. They were very remorseful & accommodating. Very satisfied & would hire them again."

"We are very satisfied with the work they did on our patio. They gave us a fair price and did a great job. The crew of 3 worked through some cold and wet weather conditions and even into the dark to finish. They showed outstanding work ethics. Definitely would recommend them."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

You should prune ornamental trees once every other year after the fruit has matured and begun to drop. You should also prune out dead branches whenever you see them. Pruning too often can stimulate more growth, especially in faster growing varieties like Bradford pears.

It's easy to misidentify trees that appear to be maple trees due to similarities in leaf shapes. Sweetgum, sycamore, and yellow poplar all have leaf shapes and appearances similar to maples. The fact that around a dozen maple tree varieties exist, only about half of which are considered common, makes misidentification an often typical occurrence.  

Sudden oak death and oak wilt are different diseases. Oak wilt first shows up in tree leaves while sudden oak death affects the branches and trunk. However, as symptoms in both can overlap, it’s best to consult a professional arborist tree expert for a proper diagnosis and development of a treatment plan.

Many species, especially when well-established, are not fans of transplantation. You’ll need to decide if you want to risk splashing the cash, understanding that transplantation isn’t always successful. Again, this is where hiring a pro is helpful, as they can give you all the essential info you need to ensure your tree stands a fighting chance.
