"Excellent! Im impressed. Jose was very reasonably priced, easy to work with and prompt. Great communication. He bid a job on a Thursday morning and scheduled it for the following Tuesday. He then called the next day to bump it up to Monday to beat the impeding storm. He confirmed mid day Sunday. Jose and his crew were on the job by 8 a.m. and off the job around 12:30. They left the wood shavings from the stump and mostly 18 inch fireplace wood per my request. I saved a few 100 dollars this way. I moved the wood and did the rest of the cleanup myself as I felt his price was more than fair. Basically, they were on the job by 8 a.m. Monday and by Tuesday 1.p.m. I had the rest of the work tackled. Well worth it. I'm near 56 with a bad back and I was able to do the cleanup and save huge. Jose was willing to have his crew gather up and stack the wood where I wanted and rake up the debris included in his bid but again, I felt I got a square deal so I was more than happy to finish up. A couple last things. Jose privided proof of license insurance. As well, Jose was very knowledgeable as to why the tree needed to come down do to being compromised from prior improper pruning allowing water access to a low crotch causing internal rot. The tree would have eventually split and one side would have crushed our house. Fact. His crew actually wrecked a long chain when they hit a couple pieces of rebar encapsulated in the middle of the trunk and refused to accept my payment for the destroyed chain. I can't say enough. Do not fear this company, just hire them."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It’s possible to transplant trees as tall as 50 feet when an experienced tree planting service uses the right equipment. However, a tree with a trunk larger than two or three inches in diameter needs to be handled by a professional in order to yield successful transplanting results. Consulting a tree planting professional is the best way to tell if your large tree can be safely transplanted.

A tree growing close to a house can pose several risks, but removal isn't always the only or best solution. Potential problems include roots growing into the foundation and causing structural cracks, branches damaging the roof or promoting moss growth, and debris clogging gutters, which can lead to water damage. Trees can also provide access for pests and encourage mold. However, a small, healthy tree may not be a problem, and for larger, established trees, strategic trimming can be a cheaper and more beneficial alternative to removal. It is generally recommended to take action for trees within 10 to 20 feet of your home, especially if they are unhealthy or encroaching. Your best bet is to consult a professional arborist who can assess the specific situation and provide expert advice.

Generally speaking, you’ll want to avoid flush cuts, which are cuts made as extremely close to the trunk or main branch. These cuts can weaken your tree, lower its natural defense mechanisms, and even cause decay. You’ll also want to avoid tree topping, which is the total removal of the leader and upper main branches of a tree. 

Most pros will advise against either of these methods, which is why hiring a pro is often the best choice when it comes to tree trimming.

You can trim just one side of the tree, especially when that side is growing near something like a power line or a home. Pros will carefully trim the tree back until it is safe from that structure. While this is common, it also needs to be done with the utmost care, as pruning or trimming away at one side of the tree may make it structurally unsound. This instance is yet another where hiring a pro is wise, especially if power lines are involved.

A chainsaw is the best tool to cut down a tree, but you may also use a handsaw or ax. You may also want to use a lopper or pole saw to remove limbs before cutting down the tree. Wear chainsaw chaps and protective gear, including eyewear and earplugs if you use a chainsaw. Again, if you’re unsure about how to use this tool, this project may be one to skip.
