"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.

Arborists questions, answered by experts

White vinegar does not kill ivy on trees because its acetic acid concentration is not high enough to overpower it. Vinegar is an effective herbicide for weeds and other plants, but not for the strength of most ivies, including poison ivy and English ivy. You should use an herbicide to kill ivy, such as one with glyphosate, imazapyr, or triclopyr.

You can remove a small tree from your yard if there’s space for the tree to fall, you have the right tools and safety equipment, and you follow a clear plan of action. You’ll just want to follow the steps above carefully, and ideally, you will have experience doing similar tasks. If you have any doubts that you can do this project safely, though, you should hire a pro.

While trees can grow in the curb strip between the sidewalk and the street, this placement often poses the problem of interfering with overhead power lines. It’s best to consult your local utility provider and tree planting service before transplanting a tree that might grow into power lines. Also, you should never work within 20 feet of a live power line to avoid the risk of electric shock. Tree branches should never touch nearby power lines, so it’s essential to ensure your tree isn’t in danger of growing too close to them.

In the short term, you’ll have a lot of fallen trees to deal with. Tree removal services costs typically start at $200 per tree and increase based on species and size. Then, you’ll have to deal with the loss of trees: That means a loss of shade and a greater risk of rain runoff and erosion. Also, you’ll miss out on the health and aesthetic benefits of having trees on your property, which could even affect the resale value of your home.

That being said, cutting down a tree it’s not always a bad idea. Trees growing too close to rooftops can present fire hazards or debris problems. You may need to remove diseased or dying trees to prevent future issues.

You may wonder whether tree removal is tax deductible: Tree removal is not tax-deductible for homeowners unless it's related to a federally declared disaster. In that case, the cost may qualify as a casualty loss. However, if you own a commercial property, like a rental home, tree removal could be deductible if it's necessary for safety, maintenance, or part of a larger capital improvement project, and you must hire a professional tree removal service and keep documentation. Always consult a tax professional beforehand to see if you qualify.
