"I recommend Juan Concha Arborist Service for tree cutting services and would contact them for future work if and when needed. Juan and his tree service crew came as scheduled on a Saturday to reduce the height of 2 large maple trees....tree limbs and branches were removed and final cleanup was excellent."

"I used Green Landscaping to remove a troublesome tree from my backyard in the Bronx. Everything about working with Lenny and his team was superb from the start. I used Angi to get connected to them and Lenny immediatley followed up, set up a time for a quote the next day, and followed up with me with required insurance information for my HOA. The day of the job, he and his crew showed up early and ready to work. After a quick assessment and chat about what would happen, the crew got to work removing the tree. I kid you not, in less than 15 minutes, this tree was cut down, brought outside, and chopped up in their portable disposal truck. They cleaned up the debris from the yard, and left me blown away by the great service. If you're considering a tree removal, I cannot recommend Lenny and his team at Green Landscaping enough. I would happily use them for any future tree or landscaping services, as should you!"

"The expertise and level of service is unlike any tree service I've ever used. We had a large, complex job taking down 3 huge decaying trees in a tight space. They brought in a massive crane and removed all three in less than 6 hours. Cut and stacked the good wood into 30 splittable oak logs leaving over a cord of firewood. Then went around the property trimming any other trees limbs that were unsafe. And they Almstead was the cheapest of 4 bids."

"Very professional team of workers from the the contractor to the staff. I highly recommend this company. They cleaned all area upon completion of the job. The fence looked new. They took their time to work on the details to make it look new again. Iâ m 100 % satisfied with the excellent job they did. Excellent price too. Returned all calls and text messages within minutes. Contractor will give you detail proposal and invoice like no other. It was a pleasure to do business with this company. I will do business again for my next project. So donâ t hesitate call them. You will be very happy too."

"Great service. My windows were great afterwards. Great pricing. They are a great team. I would recommend to others. I live on the 4th floor apartment building and they did a great job. Personable. Also very welcoming and I definitely will be using this service next time I need windows cleaning. 5 stars! Also abided with the covid regulations, they both were wearing masks the whole service. Service was very good, I had 8 windows and they all look great!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

You should avoid cutting off the top of mature cherry trees. This process is called tree topping, and it’s not recommended for cherry trees—or any trees, for that matter. Tree topping removes between one-third to half of the length of the tree trunk, resulting in structurally unsound, fruitless suckers. The only exception is for saplings. Young pie, sour, and tart cherry trees that are over 30 inches tall in the fall or winter before the tree blooms can benefit from heading cuts.

A tree branch should start to form roots in about three months. It can take about a year for a tree branch to develop roots strong enough to go in the ground. For best results, start several branches because, no matter how closely you follow instructions, they won’t all form roots. Compost any that aren’t thriving.

A tree growing close to a house can pose several risks, but removal isn't always the only or best solution. Potential problems include roots growing into the foundation and causing structural cracks, branches damaging the roof or promoting moss growth, and debris clogging gutters, which can lead to water damage. Trees can also provide access for pests and encourage mold. However, a small, healthy tree may not be a problem, and for larger, established trees, strategic trimming can be a cheaper and more beneficial alternative to removal. It is generally recommended to take action for trees within 10 to 20 feet of your home, especially if they are unhealthy or encroaching. Your best bet is to consult a professional arborist who can assess the specific situation and provide expert advice.

A standard tree removal doesn’t include stump grinding. If you want your contractor to remove your tree and grind the stump, you must pay an extra charge. That said, you’ll likely save on the cost of stand-alone service—especially if it’s a small tree and they can finish both jobs in a single trip.

There are four common ways to prune a tree correctly: crown thinning, crown reduction, crown raising, and crown cleaning. The method you choose depends on the purpose of pruning. However, making the correct cuts is a vital part of the process, regardless of your method. Pruning incorrectly can damage or even kill the tree. So, you may want to hire a professional tree-trimming company to tackle the task.
