"Kruljac removed trees from my property that were in danger of damaging my house. They performed an expert extraction of several very large trees, causing no collateral damage in the process. They arrived on time, cleaned up after they were done, and worked quickly. They are a team of bright and conscientious individuals. In addition, they are certified arborists and provided helpful information about the nature of remaining trees and plants. Highly recommended."

"We had an urgent situation in that the large (approx 60 ft high) locust tree in our back yard was severely leaning over the street.  It looked like it might fall down with the next storm.  I got estimates from a few other tree services who insisted that it was necessary to use a crane to hold the tree up while they cut it down.  Emery said they could do it just with their bucket truck and that they could do it two days later.  True to their promise, they showed up two days later and in two hours the tree was down, without the use of a crane.  The tree didn't move while they took it down.  Their price was 1/3 that of the other tree services.   They did an excellent job, cleaning up afterward and taking all tree pieces with them.

"They were excellent! I loved the fact that the owner, Derrick, came out to give us a quote soon after I called him. Also, he wrote a detailed quote right on the spot. They were very professional and polite. We added additional work as they were doing our yard and they were so accommodating to take care of our needs. Took 3 trees down, bushes out and weed eated a bank that was so nasty! I have more work for them at another location. I recommend them To my granddaughter so that should tell you a lot! Very wonderful experience! They were very reasonably priced too! Thanks Derrick and crew for doing an amazing job!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

DIY home gardening can be relaxing, joyful, and cost-effective. From mowing your lawn to planting your own flower beds, there is a wide variety of gardening tasks that you can do yourself to make your yard look beautiful. If you’d rather spend your time not in the dirt, or if you’d like someone to take care of your plants for you, calling a professional gardening service is best. They can give you a workup of what services you’ll need and how often to schedule them.

No. Most of the time, suckers are only a sign that the tree is experiencing stress. However, they can also be the canary in the coal mine, letting you know that something else is stressing your tree. If you have lots of suckers on your tree, calling in an arborist or a tree care expert is always a good call to determine the cause and develop a solution that de-stresses your tree.

You can shape a cherry tree by trimming vertical branches, dense branches, and intersecting branches. Your personal aesthetic comes into play, as well. If you want to simply thin and shape the tree, you can get away with trimming the aforementioned parts of your cherry tree. If you want to shorten branches, however, consider thinning cuts, which alter the length of the branches while encouraging light penetration, new buds and shoots, and a structurally-sound shape.

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.

Most experts recommend removing a tree that has sustained more than 25% loss in the limbs, trunk, or circumference of the bark. Doing an initial trimming of damaged and dangling branches, but then waiting a few days of monitoring to decide how much more you might need to cut can help you better assess the total damage to the tree. However, consulting a tree maintenance pro to make this determination the best course of action before removing a tree.
