"Great professional tree removal. Skillfully removed 4 trees on my property while being considerate of my neighbors. Reasonable pricing and came when they said they would. Did an excellent job cleaning up and cutting the wood I wanted to keep. Will definitely be calling them for future tree projects."

"I got several quotes for trimming and/or removing a large Silver Maple in our backyard, and the quotes were way expensive for our budget. Parkway came in with a reasonable quote to trim both the Silver Maple and the Oak in our backyard. They did professional arborist work, excellent clean up/removing debris and they were the friendliest people I've met in the tree business! Hire Parkway! You won't regret it. They truly care for both trees and their customers!"

"July 9, 2023 The tree removal project on my property in my opinion, separates the tree cutters from the tree surgeons. A 60 plus foot tree (honey maple), with a bifurcating trunk diameter of 36 to 40 inches, and branches—thin and thick, extending 40 feet around, and over my house required expert attention and skill. All of the previous tree contractors I interviewed required rigging and roping procedures. Ken Fisher III—LumberJack Tree Service took the job and performed it himself with his thirteen year old son supervising on July 8, 2023. His pricing was great, a thousand plus dollars cheaper than his competitors. His communication skills were straight forward and dependable. Ken Fisher of LumberJack Tree Service is at the prime of his chosen profession. And at the level of a tree surgeon, not just a tree cutter. His skill level in my opinion, incorporates three tree removal specialists. Ken Fisher III is a one man crew of three. He brought his thirteen year old son, Ken the 4th (they really like the name Ken) to supervise and make sure that his dad doesn't slack off. Ken the 4th, is fortunate to have a dad like Ken the 3rd. I don’t need years of experience in the tree removal business, to assess and determine when a professional is at the top of his craft. I have enough life experience to qualify me. It was exciting and a joy watching Ken perform his expertise, never compromising safety. Roque Lachica Jr. Hometown, PA"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Late August, September, and mid-October are the ideal months for planting a young tree. However, the best time to plant a tree ultimately depends on when the weather transitions to fall-like conditions and eventually winter frost. As long as the hottest days of summer have passed and the ground hasn’t frozen yet, you can still successfully plant trees.

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.

A standard tree removal doesn’t include stump grinding. If you want your contractor to remove your tree and grind the stump, you must pay an extra charge. That said, you’ll likely save on the cost of stand-alone service—especially if it’s a small tree and they can finish both jobs in a single trip.

The typical lifespan of a Bradford pear is relatively short, only 15 to 25 years. However, these trees have issues long before their life is over. Due to their soft wood and fast-growing branches, Bradford pear trees often split around 15 years, making them a risk for falling branches and more prone to disease. 

There are a few general rules to follow that will help you prune your trees correctly. One of the most important rules is to prune during the correct season for the type of tree you have. Typically, pruning should be during late winter. For younger trees, you should not remove more than a ⅓ of the tree's crown when pruning. Also, remember to remove dead and diseased branches first, then proceed with pruning the rest of the tree.
