"Like clockwork! They were skilled, professional, and efficient in completing the task at hand! They were very precise in cleaning up the worksite after themselves and took cautionary action not to damage anything else on the property when the tree fell! To top it all off their price was more than reasonable and I would have them do any future work that I would need!!"

"Gregg Minor called me as soon as I requested an estimate. He showed up to give me the estimate on time. Gregg was very polite and his estimate was a very good price. Gregg scheduled the work to be done on the date that accommodated my schedule. Gregg of Northern Sky contacted me the day before the scheduled work date to confirm that it was ok for the work to be done. He showed up on time to cut my trees down. Gregg and his helper were very careful to protect my property from being damaged by making sure the trees fell into the open area. Gregg and his helper cleaned up all of the limbs and sawdust better than I expected. They did a great job I will most certainly hire them again and would recommend them to anyone that needs trees cut and/or tree damage repaired."

Arborists 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.

Bleach can potentially kill some types of delicate ornamental trees, but for the most part, it will only kill the foliage it comes in contact with. Applying bleach is not an effective method of killing a tree. A better option is to use an herbicide, which is a chemical compound designed to effectively kill a tree. 

Steer clear of the area and contact your utility company immediately. It will have a website portal and/or a phone number to report downed trees and electrical issues. If the tree appears to be on public land, you may want to call your local government and report the issue there, too.

All of the tree root removal methods mentioned above are effective on any kind of root, whether it’s still growing or simply needs a gentle nudge to finish decomposing. The only difference is that larger roots tend to be harder to remove and may require multiple chemical treatments as well as manual labor to eradicate.

It depends on the problem, the affected part of the tree, the risk of the pathogen spreading, and the overall health of your tree. Many diseases, fungal infections, and insect infestations can be successfully treated, especially if the issue is only in a few branches. However, if a disease is too widespread, too severe, too easily spread, or in the roots, the tree will likely need to be removed.
