"Nick took the time to fully understand what I wanted done and explained how I could achieve that while also keeping my tree healthy. His crew was prompt, thorough and very respectful. I will use him again in the future as it is so hard to find people who do what they say they are going to do."

"A large ice storm in Oklahoma City damaged a number of trees on our property.  Ours was just one of many, many neighborhoods hit hard by this storm.  So the clean up workload was enormous in our area.  
We wanted to find not only a debris removal service, but someone who would know what to do in order to preserve the trees that could be saved.  Ideally, we wanted an arborist.  We found Earth & Arbor on Angie's List and got in touch with them.  
Understandably, all the quality people in this line of work were extremely busy in the aftermath of such a major ice event.  I left a message with Earth & Arbor and a few other recommended services.  Caleb with Earth & Arbor was the first to return my call.  He was courteous on the phone but was very clear about how busy they were and how much of a delay there could be in doing the work.  He came by within a few days and gave his assessment of the damage and an estimate on the clean up.  Again, he emphasized how backed up they were with work, trying to deal with emergency situations first.  Ours certainly wasn't in that category.  
It did take quite a while to get to us but Caleb stayed in touch throughout the wait, which was greatly appreciated.  Once he and his crew got here they did quality work.  We lost a tree in our backyard and had significant debris all over our deck.  Earth & Arbor did a good job with all of it.  They gave us a fair price, including an Angie's List discount, and they handled themselves very professionally.  There were a few loose ends with the final clean up but nothing significant.
We like their work and really came to respect Caleb's honesty, expertise and his friendly demeanor.  We will be using Earth & Arbor in the future and highly recommend them, not just for tree trimming, but for maintaining a healthy landscape year round.

"AMAZING experience. I would definitely recommend Sawdust Tree Expert. I had a fairly large tree that needed to be removed, they gave me a very fair quote, and did an amazing job. In no time at all the tree was down and all the branches were gone. Absolutely blown away by their professionalism, their attention to details and their work ethics. Not to mention they were pleasant to speak with....I felt very pleased when they were done."

"I cannot say enough good things about Brad and his crew, they went above and beyond our expectations. We had a cluster of heavily damaged trees removed, five trees trimmed and three trees cabled. The trees that were removed were laying on our shed and he was remove these and was also able to save our shed which we didn't think was going to be possible. The trees that were trimmed up look great most of all are on their way to being healthy again. Our house and yard look fantastic and I swear there wasn't a stick or broken limb left on the ground anywhere! Brad is professional always kept us up to date and in the loop on what was happening. I would highly recommend David Family Arbor Services to anyone looking for a friendly and trust worthy company."

"I’ve used Antonio several times for lawn irrigation repair and maintenance. He does what he says he will do when he said he would do it and stands behind his work. He is an honorable man and I WILL use him again."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Pruning a tree is a yearly DIY job that involves removing small dead branches, leaves, and blooms to help the tree grow bigger and stronger. You can often complete the job with basic home gardening tools. Trimming a tree, however, removes larger sections to control the direction the tree grows in and protects your home, utility wires, and yard from potentially dangerous branches.

There are several signs that may indicate a tree needs to be cut down. These include visible damage to the trunk or branches, a hollow trunk, extensive storm damage, or a significant lean to one side. Other warning signs are pest infestations or the tree growing too close to a house, power lines, or other structures. It is best to hire a professional arborist to inspect the tree, as they can determine if it can be saved or if removal is necessary.

In most cases, leaving tree roots underground is not a problem if the stump has been removed or ground below the soil. However, some larger roots may decompose, leaving dents in your soil. Additionally, some aggressive trees, including willows, oaks, elms, maples, and poplars may grow back from roots. Large aggressive trees with established root systems are more likely to grow back.

The best time to cut down a tree is during its dormant season, typically in winter or early spring, after all the leaves have fallen. Removing a tree during this period is advantageous for several reasons. Frozen ground helps secure the tree stump, protects the surrounding landscape from damage, and reduces the risk of the tree falling in an unintended direction. With the leaves gone, there is less risk of the tree's foliage getting tangled with other trees. Additionally, since this is often a slower season for tree services, you may be able to hire a professional at a lower rate. This dormant period is also the best time for tree trimming.

A grafted tree is a tree grown by combining two trees. It takes expertise. Branches from grafted trees don’t grow strong roots. Save yourself the time and frustration by having an arborist help you with this advanced project.  

You can often tell if a tree is grafted because it will have a noticeable line. Above the line, the bark will look different than it does below the line. It’s most common with fruit trees.
