"Hired Hernandez for a full list: tree removal, stump grinding, hedge trimming, and staking two trees. These guys are the real deal. They showed up exactly when they said they would, which right there sets them apart. Communication was excellent start to finish, no chasing anyone down, no surprises. The crew was sharp, supervised, and clearly took pride in the work. Hedges came out perfectly precise, the tree removal and stump grinding were flawless, and the staked trees look great. On top of all that, they're genuinely good people and the pricing was more than fair for the quality of work we got. Reliable, professional, and truly excellent at what they do. If you need tree work done right, Hernandez is the call."

"Miguel and his crew did an excellent job. Miguel reviewed what we requested before starting work and made several suggestions. They pruned and trimmed several large trees. I was surprised by the amount of large branches and debris. When they were done there was nothing left on the lawn. I would highly recommend Miguel Tree Service."

"I would have rated a 10 if possible!! The job was handled efficiently from the very start!! A Japanese maple was removed in literally 10 minutes. Then cleaned up as if there was never a tree there at all! The men were all in tune with each other anticipating the next move! I can’t say enough about how great the experience was. Very affordable as well!!! They will be our tree service company for the rest of time!!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Yes, the same rules discussed above apply to your neighbor: They can trim one of your trees as long as they’re only cutting the portion that extends into their property. Your neighbor is not allowed to access your property without permission, nor can they cut past the property line. 

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.

Yes, you can hire professionals to move a tree. Arborists and tree transplanting companies specialize in this type of work and use equipment like hydraulic tree spades to safely extract and relocate trees with their root balls intact. Since tree moving is a complex process, especially for larger trees, it’s best left to experts who understand how to protect the tree’s health and ensure the safety of everyone involved.

You can hire a professional arborist or tree removal service to cut down a tree to ensure safety, prevent property damage, and comply with all the local regulations. It’s highly advisable to always hire a professional, as tree removal can be extremely dangerous, especially for large or damaged trees. Certified arborists or tree removal experts have the proper equipment, training, and insurance to do the job safely and efficiently. They can also handle cleanup, stump removal, and obtaining the necessary permits.

Grinding down a tree helps reduce the risk of foundation damage and pests and even helps your home’s curb appeal. Stumps can also be a safety hazard. If grass grows above the stump and someone else mows your yard, they may be in for a rude awakening when they accidentally hit it.
