"I couldn’t be more happier with the work Adam did with removing my poison oak, blackberries and a tree from my yard! He was professional, fast and thorough! I’ve hired him to do all my yard work! He’s not only one of the hardest workers I’ve ever met, but he’s such a kind and humble man! I highly recommend him!!!"

"I had a massive oak branch overhanging my roof that was a major safety concern. The crew arrived exactly on time, were incredibly professional, and used specialized rigging to ensure the limb didn't touch the house. What impressed me most was the cleanup?they chipped everything on-site and even raked the yard so it looked better than when they arrived. It?s rare to find a team that combines such high-level skill with genuine care for the property."

"He did great work. I had an overgrown maple tree in my backyard that posed a threat to my roof, my fence, and even my neighbors property. He came out to survey the area and listen to my concerns. He discussed the problem areas with me and made sure he understood what I wanted. He arrived on time, trimmed everything up exactly as asked, and cleared the area afterwards. Now my yard looks great and my home feels safer. I would definitely hire him again."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

You should avoid cutting off the top of mature cherry trees. This process is called tree topping, and it’s not recommended for cherry trees—or any trees, for that matter. Tree topping removes between one-third to half of the length of the tree trunk, resulting in structurally unsound, fruitless suckers. The only exception is for saplings. Young pie, sour, and tart cherry trees that are over 30 inches tall in the fall or winter before the tree blooms can benefit from heading cuts.

Dead tree branches should be removed, because they can cause the tree to lose nutrients. They can also make the tree more susceptible to disease and pests. Removing dead and diseased branches can help the tree recover and increase the odds of saving a dying tree. Make sure to prune the tree correctly to avoid damaging it further.

Generally, no, tree topping isn’t a good technique, and you should avoid using it in most cases. Tree topping may be the only good option to save a tree following severe damage after a storm, but in most other cases, it’s not the right choice. Tree topping can leave trees vulnerable to disease and further damage, and most pros will suggest against it.

Opt for a barefoot tree. Pros harvest barefoot trees when they’re dormant (leafless). They shake the dirt from the root ball and pack it in moist material. 

These trees can cost half as much as the trees at your local nursery, and you can buy them online—so there’s a much wider selection. Just make sure you keep your barefoot tree cool until you’re ready to plant it.

If tree branches cross well into your property line, in many cases, these branches become part of your property, and you can trim them up until your neighbor’s property line. However, this issue will vary based on local ordinances, so you should do your research before making any decisions. Better yet, speak with your neighbor about how to handle any tree issues. 

If you don’t mind the branches, you can leave them be, but if they’re becoming a hazard, it’s definitely worth having a conversation.
