Q: How much can you trim a tree without killing it?

• <div><p>Generally, you&rsquo;ll want to avoid pruning more than 25% of the tree&rsquo;s canopy at one time. While pruning your tree is important, it&rsquo;s possible to do it too often or to go too far. Again, this is why hiring a tree trimming pro to do the work is wise. However, if you do decide to DIY, going slow and trimming gradually is the name of the game.</p></div>

Q: What’s the best time of the year to prune shade trees?

• <div><p>Deciduous shade trees (the type of trees whose leaves fall off in autumn) need to be pruned in late winter&mdash;between February and March. That&rsquo;s because it&rsquo;s easier to find and remove sick or dead branches when no leaves are present. And wounds close and heal faster in colder temperatures so pruning them at this time also makes them less prone to infection.</p></div>

Q: Can Dutch elm disease hurt humans?

• <div><p>Dutch elm disease can&rsquo;t harm humans. In fact, <a href="https://www.readyforwildfire.org/forest-health/bark-beetle-information/">according to</a> Cal Fire, bark beetles aren&rsquo;t even typically dangerous to trees unless that tree is already weakened. The problem comes when Dutch elm disease kills a tree. That tree is more at risk of falling and catching fire, which can pose a serious threat.</p></div>

Q: Can I leave a dead tree standing?

• <div><p>Once you confirm a tree is dead, you should remove it. Dead trees eventually fall, and larger trees in particular can cause damage to rooftops, fencing, flowers, and other objects. As we mentioned, letting decayed wood stay in your yard also invites risks to the surrounding landscaping and vegetation.</p></div>

Q: What causes a tree to split?

• <div><p>A tree can split because of high winds, a change in temperature, or from an infestation or <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/3-common-tree-diseases.htm">tree disease</a>. All of these factors can overlap, making a single cause difficult to pinpoint. While winter storms are some of the most common causes for a tree to split, it can also happen because of termites or rot.</p></div>

The concrete was not level. It was crooked as well. It looked like he started out using forms as guides then quit using forms and just dug a crooked trench and poured in the concrete.

"They arrived on schedule and began work immediately. They were able to quickly trim the elm tree to our satisfaction. The willow tree took a little more time due to the proximity of the homes and multiple dead limbs at the top of the tree. I was pleased with their work, and will definitely use them again. They are very professional, and know their business well.
