"The guys from Always Green are fantastic. I’ve been using their Tree cutting services for many years as I purchased a property with extreme overgrowth. They were always punctual, respectful, clean, and their prices are fair. I’ve recommended them to many friends and family. All had good experience with them. Don’t do work with anyone else until you at least get a quote from them. They do not use pressure tactics to get you to buy their services. Great service. I’ll gladly submit a review for them."

"This is the third time that I've used Emerald. The first time was in 2014 and again last year. This year we had two trees that had severe storm damage and had to be removed. We also had overgrown trees pruned back from the house. All the debris was taken care of. They showed up on the appointed date and time. Competive prices. Final bill matched estimate. Great job well done."

"I am a new home owner and have hired several contractors for kitchen, bathroom, electricity, etc. in the past few months for my 70 years old house. Rosalio is the best one whom I have ever hired. He is very professional and did finish tree job for quick with very high quality. He knows what he needs to do for customer's satisfaction. My tree project was 2 trees to take down and 1 tree to trim. When I asked him to trim dead branches on the top of tree, he climbed the tree and cut all of the dead ones. 120 % Satisfaction. Price is very fair."

"Used them for tree service. The owner was really engaged and personally came out to check out our fallen tree. He provided all the proof of insurance so our neighbor (tree landed on their property!) wouldn't be concerned about liability as the crew did some of the work on her property. The crew worked fast and left everything just as we had asked for it to be finished. Super happy with Umanzor Landscaping. Definitely a rehire and no hesitation to recommend."

"they removed the tree trunk and branches timely but did not remove the ROOTS that were sticking up out of the concrete which to me would be part of the tree So I have to pay someone else to remove the roots. Also they were removing parts of tree from next door neighbors garden and broke down the fence between us and started carrying those branches out through the ground floor apartment in my building until they were told to stop by my tenant. I would say they did a good job even tho the man in charge went on vacation before the job was finished, but if you use this company be sure every possible event is covered in your agreement"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Not all evergreen conifers need to be pruned, but some do. Pruning pine trees is not necessary, but you can do so during June and July if you wish. On the other hand, spruce, firs, and junipers do need to be pruned from late winter to early spring.

Hiring an arborist or tree surgeon is usually more expensive than a standard tree company, but it is often worth the investment. Arborists have education and certifications that standard companies typically lack, leading to a more professional, expert-level service. Their expertise is particularly valuable for diseased or infested trees, as they can ensure safer removal and help prevent the issue from spreading. Additionally, arborists may be necessary for work near power lines, as uncertified companies are often not permitted to service these trees. If your goal is to preserve the health of your trees, an arborist is the best choice. Their services, such as stump grinding, are also performed with greater expertise to ensure a safe depth that won't cause your lawn to collapse over time.

You should not trim an oak tree in the summer. Oak trees are especially susceptible to disease, and open tree wounds are an invitation for beetles that carry tree-killing fungus. If there’s no risk that the oak tree will do damage to your property or hurt someone, it’s best to save the trimming for fall or winter. If you can, seal the wound with latex to prevent fungus from getting inside.

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.

While the trees in your backyard are good for the environment and look beautiful, they could present a danger to your home under the wrong circumstances. This task is typically beyond the capabilities of the average homeowner due to its dangerous nature, so it’s best to leave this task to a professional. In some cities, it’s even illegal to remove a tree yourself.
