"We had a great experience with Hilts Tree Service. Communication was excellent from the estimate through the completion of the job. They removed four trees from our property, including trees very close to the house, and did an excellent job with both the removal and stump grinding. They were professional, careful around the house and underground utilities, and left the property clean when they were finished. Melissa was also extremely responsive and helpful throughout the entire process. Very reasonable pricing for the quality of the work. Highly recommended!"

"review for Bob Deyo We had  a 120 year old silver maple tree in our backyard that was growing really close to our house.  We wanted to figure out if we should prune it back or take down the tree entirely. A person at Cornell recommended Deyo's Tree Service to us. We got several quotes from different companies, and we were so impressed with Bob's experience and knowledge. Of all the companies we contacted, Bob was the only one who insisted that our tree had to come down because it was dangerous for us. Well, a few days later, we hired a certified arborist and he said that the tree couldn't be saved and should be taken down for safety reasons. We are so grateful that Bob insisted that we take the tree down. Other companies were trying to save the tree, but if we had listened to them, we would have put our lives at risk! We are so thankful that we had Bob's expertise.Â"

"A professional who keeps in regular contact with you to notify you of scheduling and other issues is hard to find. So I truly appreciated that Erik always kept me informed about when he was coming or if there was any change. He did an excellent job in removing several large maple trees from my yard one of which was very near the hwy and could have been disastrous if not done with care. He also includes cutting the wood into rounds and chipping all the branches which arenâ t included in other tree trimming services. Iâ m very pleased about every aspect of his service and will heartily recommend him to any friend in need of such services."

"He does very good job. Listens to what you need done. He was only going to trim the white birch, but found a very large rotten spot so I told him to down the tree. cleaned up all around the lawn and driveway. Very knowledgeable polite young man. I will recommend him to every one. He has completed two jobs and will do two more this fall. Doris Wayman"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, it’s okay to trim low branches on a tree, also known as limbing up or raising the crown. Essentially, you’ll trim the lower third of the tree (trunk) and leave the upper two-thirds of the tree (crown). Arborists recommend trimming 20% of a tree’s leaves per season for two to three seasons. Trimming low branches allows light to flow through the tree, increasing circulation and making the tree stronger and healthier.

It can take anywhere from one month to a couple of years for tree roots to grow back in sewer lines. Tree roots can cause extreme havoc on your sewer lines, potentially cracking them and causing untreated wastewater to make its way into the groundwater. Have a landscaping pro remove trees and roots before installing your system, or call a pro to do it retroactively as soon as you can.

Professionals ensure safety, prevent property damage, and handle debris efficiently.

A tree can grow back from its stump, but full regrowth is unlikely (especially for more stubborn conifer trees). Instead, trees are more likely to send up a number of shoots from the dead stump, which will try to develop into primary stems over time. In other words, it will start to look increasingly bushy. The goal of killing and drying out a tree stump is to prevent that from happening, as well as make the stump easier to completely remove.

Since summer is a busy time for tree companies, the cheapest time of year to remove a tree is during the winter. February and March are typically the prime time to hire a tree removal pro, and some homeowners living in colder climates can save around 20% off services. It depends on location and the company, but you can always shop around for the best deal.
