"This company did just what we agreed on for trimming my very large old tree. He completed the job earlier than promised, and at the quoted price, which was MUCH less than what another company had quoted me. I recommended him to a friend who has already hired Lee for another residential job in the neighborhood."

"Rosheen Faison and his crew were great to work with - from start to finish. Came to offer a quote in a very timely manner (same day, as I recall), then sent a reasonable quote, scheduled the job for a month out. Then let me know they could do it on a date two weeks out, so we scheduled for an 8:30am start. They arrived at 8:20 and got right to work. Limbed a few large trees using ropes/climbing & bucket truck. They left me with some great firewood in 4' lengths, then chipped and removed the rest. Excellent experience all around. Rosheen is so good at his craft that he makes you want to be better at your own. Highly recommend."

"It worked out very well. I was losing my hemlocks to a disease. I was socializing with a person, who was an arborist and he said use Tree Tech. It was an extensive job and it cost me about $3000. Kevin, one of the managers, came out and saw everything, he sent the crew out, they did the work. He educated the crew as to what needed to be done and how to do certain things. There was a follow-up. They did a a great job and we will certainly use them again. They cleaned up, did not leave anything. They are on list for yearly maintenance."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It’s not always easy to tell when a tree is dying, although signs like dropping branches and brittle bark can sometimes offer clues. It can also be difficult to know whether a tree is dead or dormant, especially if it’s a deciduous tree. You’ll want to wait until a growth season to get a good idea of a tree’s health. When in doubt, contact an arborist for a consultation.

A palm tree's lifespan typically ranges from 40 to 100 years, though some species can live much longer. For example, certain types of Date Palm trees can live for over 200 years. The exact longevity of a palm tree is influenced by several factors, including its species, size, climate, and growing conditions. To maximize your palm's lifespan, provide proper care and maintenance, such as ensuring it gets enough sunlight, water, and nutrients, and protecting it from pests and diseases. For expert maintenance tips, consider consulting a professional arborist.

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.

While palm trees can bring aesthetic appeal to your yard, they have a couple of drawbacks. The main disadvantage is that many types require warm climates, so if you live in a cold region, you need to ensure you pick a palm that can withstand the freezing temperatures. Another downside is that maintenance can be difficult because of their height, which means you will need to pay a pro to prune the tree as needed.

Palm trees are unique in that their roots don't grow straight down; they grow horizontally. Typically, palm tree roots go down between 12 and 36 inches deep. The roots grow far and wide from the base of the palm tree to absorb as much water and soil nutrients as possible. In addition, the horizontal roots are also very strong—keeping palm trees stable and helping them sway during storms.
