"Willy and his crew were great. Property was in need of much repair and they were prompt and professional. They were able to guide me through the adjustments I wanted to make and communication was great throughout. They helped grade the backyard, laid three pallets of sod, removed trees and shrubs and laid about 8 yards of mulch. Would highly recommend."

"Jay and his company are awesome! They listened to what I wanted and designed and installed exactly what would deliver what I asked for (color and deer resistant). And Jay continues to visit me, to service my concerns on a couple of plants that did not take (live) after being planted in Oct. Very competitive pricing too!"

"Jim Rhoads, the owner came out promptly and explained every aspect of the job which included the removal of a very large cherry tree and flush cutting the stump as well as trimming the dead wood off a locust tree. He had a big crew of professionals who worked well as a team to get the job done meticulously. All of the wood and debris were hauled away leaving my yard looking absolutely beautiful. I was quoted a reasonable price for a job very well done. He is fully insured which is important in this line of work! I was extremely pleased with Tomahawk Tree Service and highly recommend them. I will definitely use them for any future tree service I may need."

"John of Plymouth Nursery and Landscaping and his staff were wonderful. They did a terrific job cleaning up my property and planting all new beautiful shrubs and plants.

"Edd and his crew did a SUPERIOR job removing two very large trees, one over 50 feet tall (and planting a much smaller tree in its place), and the other over 75 feet tall, all in the tight confines of a townhouse community. They were the hardest-working crew I've ever seen, all at a price nobody else would touch. My neighbors and I all enjoyed the show, wherein my one neighbor hired Edd on the spot to remove one of his trees. Their stump-grinding and cleanup was meticulous. These guys are artists, and are the last word in tree removal. I only wish I had more trees for them to remove!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.

Your neighbor is not in a good position to know if your trees are truly dead or pose any kind of danger. That’s why hiring an arborist or tree service expert can be such an important part of the process. If the trees are still alive and don’t pose any threat, you’re in the clear (but you may want to document and photograph everything in case events turn sour down the road).

But if a tree is visibly dead and near the property line, you should remove it to be safe. If a dead tree falls on a neighbor’s property, they may have grounds to sue for negligence. If any branches on trees have died, it’s a good idea to cut them back for similar reasons.

No, homeowners insurance typically does not cover the cost of removing a dead, sick, or rotting tree that is still standing. Insurance is designed to protect against sudden and unexpected accidents, whereas a tree dying or rotting over time is considered a maintenance issue. Coverage usually only applies after a tree has fallen and caused damage to your property.

Carefully pruning small roots no thicker than three inches in diameter won’t harm the tree. However, cutting larger roots may impact the tree's stability and nutrient absorption. It's advisable to consult an arborist or tree care professional to evaluate the root's size, the tree's health, and the potential impact of cutting. Proper tree pruning techniques and timing can minimize damage, but larger root removal may necessitate expert guidance to avoid compromising the tree's overall health and stability.

For trimming trees, your best tool is a pair of pruning shears or loppers. Both options work best for branches that are under 3 inches in diameter. Trimming trees with a larger diameter may require a robust tool like a small chainsaw or a handsaw, so take into account your tree’s diameter when deciding between tools.
