"George and his crew were on time and did a great job. When they left the yard looked the same as it was when they got there. They were about 70 feet tall and crew a great job. Would hire them again in a heartbeat and will again this fall for my Bradford tree in front yard."

"Two "recommended" companies were contacted before ArborTech. One responded to an email through their website but then would not schedule an estimate. The second came out and looked at the job, said they would send an estimate that night and never did, then would not reply. David came out the night I put an inquiry on Angi. He told me what needed done, gave me an estimate and told me he wanted the job. This involved some 70ft cherry trees overhanging or leaning at my house which were a grave concern. They did removal and trim backs on all the trees that needed it; and opened up my entire backyard. They also cleaned everything up neatly. I would highly recommend Arbor Tech and not hesitate to call them again."

"Highly recommend 1st Choice! We had two trees removed and some trimming done on some others. The pricing is fair and they knocked the job out quickly! I am very happy with the work and will be using them again in the future."

"We had a large Maple tree next to our house cut down. They were so careful, I had been nervous about our metal roof which dents easily. The tree was removed quickly and without issue. They did a great job of cleaning up afterwards. I would happily refer them to anyone looking for a tree service."

"Tree Houdini (Brandon) is the real deal as not only can he make your tree problem disappear but he is an artist doing it. Not only is Brandon thorough & safe but he treats your property as his own. Brandon not only was resonably priced but prioritized my tree removable in an expedite manner. Brandon treated my tree removal and tree trimming job with the expertise of an arborist. definitely would recommend his services for any tree removal/trimming projects."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.

Tree roots can take weeks to years to die, depending on the method you use. Chemical herbicides take the least amount of time—typically between three and four weeks—while homemade methods, like covering an old stump with leaves, could take between seven and eight years. If you’re unsure which method to use or how quickly you need to act, consulting with a pro is always a good idea.

How often and long you should water a tree depends on the species and if it is mature or newly planted. The amount of water is also based on the tree's size. A good rule of thumb is approximately 5 gallons per inch of the trunk's diameter.

Adjusting watering to the recommended suggestions for the tree type and weather conditions is vital. For instance, watering trees during a drought is necessary, and you may need to water more frequently than usual.

If tree branches cross well into your property line, in many cases, these branches become part of your property, and you can trim them up until your neighbor’s property line. However, this issue will vary based on local ordinances, so you should do your research before making any decisions. Better yet, speak with your neighbor about how to handle any tree issues. 

If you don’t mind the branches, you can leave them be, but if they’re becoming a hazard, it’s definitely worth having a conversation.

If a disease has attacked and destroyed the roots, then the tree may fall over as soon as it has died or while part of it is still alive. Trees that die with their roots left in place tend to stay standing for much longer, but those roots will decay eventually, allowing gravity to do the rest.
