"Brian provided estimate in February 2018. Advised us to wait till leaves were on the tree. Crew arrived on 6/7/2018 on time. Crew was extremely efficient and hard working with two climbers in the tree. Completed work in one day. All debris was chipped and hauled away, leaving our property neat and clean with no damage to landscaping. Brian was great to work with and the bid was very reasonable considering the complexity of the job. I would recommend them them unconditionally."

"I absolutely love this company and their employees!!  We have called them at least 3 times and if I could afford it, I'd call them again!
  We live at the end of a dead end street and  there are trees on all 3 sides of our house.  They were getting pretty large and our house was starting to feel like a cave.  I got permission from the surrounding neighbors to cut some trees .  
   After my phone call, the estimator was here the same day.  I was slightly vague on whether certain trees needed to come down (depended on access) , but he was quite flexible about options.  
  The crew came the following week (This was back in November 2014)  Might have been 5-6 guys, exactly on time, with a giant chipper.  They were an absolute joy to watch:  very precision work and very careful to avoid having limbs hit fences or structures. They climbed the trees and roped the tops or the limbs so the pieces would drop in the right location.  Very respectful of the neighbors' property.  I loved watching them in action.  You can tell they are all professional loggers.   They cut the trunk wood into rounds.  Used the chipper for the branches.  They were very helpful with last minute decisions about trimming versus eliminating something, and planning ahead for future plantings or cuttings.  Jason even went out of his way to talk to one of the neighbors about some trees on their property.  They probably cut down 12-15 trees in about 7 hours.  Our house and yard are much lighter.  Cleanup was outstanding.  The bill for that day was around $3000.  
     Last month, we hired them for removal of some dead trees at the beach.  They drove out from Portland and arrived before sunrise!!  Same result:  precision work with a great group of men who were very helpful and efficient.  They dropped trees that were a hazard.  Some were left to compost naturally, and some were cut into rounds for future firewood.  The bill for that day was around $2000 (included drive time to/ from Portland).  
   The company has arborist services available as well.  We have not yet asked for that help, but I met the arborist (Lorin) and he is quite knowledgeable and helpful.  
   I don't know what other companies charge.  Tree removal is costly, no matter who does it, which is why I gave them a "good" instead of "excellent" on pricing.  Based on their name, I suspect that I maybe should have checked "excellent" but I have no way of comparing prices.  This is only company I have ever called or would ever use.  ve

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

Not all leaning trees are dangerous, but they can be a hazard as gravity may eventually cause them to fall. A key factor is whether the lean is new or has been present for a long time. Trees that have grown with a lean for years are not typically an immediate danger, but a sudden lean is a cause for concern as it often indicates weakening roots. If a tree is leaning more than 15% from vertical, you should consider having it straightened or transplanted. To be safe, it's always best to hire a professional arborist to inspect any leaning tree to assess the risk and avoid potential accidents.

The best time to trim trees is in late fall through winter when the tree has slowed its growing for the year. Cold weather stops insects and fungal growth from attacking a new tree wound. Summer and fall are considered the worst times to trim trees, but it’s permissible in certain scenarios, such as tree disease, damaged branches, or small, aesthetic cuts.

It is good to spray water on a Christmas tree to help keep the needles hydrated. Spraying a Christmas tree with water prevents dryness, stops needles from falling off, and reduces the risk of fire.

Palm trees aren’t much different than your typical tree removal. Removing a palm tree is a standard procedure as long as pros have the proper tools and supplies. For DIYers, however, there are some risks associated with palm tree removal. Palm trees have spiky fronds, bark, and patches of hefty wood. So, it’s best to let an experienced tree service pro remove a palm tree.
