"We just hired Team 1 from Saw-Rite Tree Service to come out and remove 4 extremely large pine trees. They showed up for the job early when they said they would be there, worked quickly but safely and cleaned up everything afterwards. All of the guys were very friendly. I would recommend them to to everyone I know!"

"Art has been working with my lawn for about 4-5 months. Since then my lawn has improved 100%. His knowledge and experience is incredible. He explains everything the lawn needs, the problems and what is required to fix the problems. He will spend as much time with his customers as required to insure they understand the entire process. I recommend Art for all lawn care service. If you want a beautiful lawn there is no other lawn care service that comes close to him."

"Garden of Eva. Did a wonderful job on our front. Yard. We have lived in our home for 20 years. I do not do yardwork. I didn't want my husband spending days working on yard maintenance. They gave us a lo maintenance yard and a pondless waterfall. The week they worked on our project the temps were in the high 90's, but did not stop them. I am not a plant person but I knew how I wanted it to look. Eva picked out the plants we needed to accomplish the low maintenance and the look. Thanks so much to your crew who worked so hard and the successful completion of the project."

"The owner was the most knowledgeable person I have ever met and not only the field of trees and shrubs but mainly pest control and overall maintenance of the entire yard. In all my years of dealing with people and many different industries, he is by far light years ahead of everyone else. I would highly recommend him to anybody looking for any type of pest control or advice on trees and shrubs."

"They worked day and night. The project was estimated to be 5-7 days and that is how long it was. Got cold and rainy but they still kept working. My overgrown front woods was a challenging job. A lot of mud a lot of equipment got stuck and had to be pulled out. Very reliable and hard working. Thanks guys."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

While the trees in your backyard are good for the environment and look beautiful, they could present a danger to your home under the wrong circumstances. This task is typically beyond the capabilities of the average homeowner due to its dangerous nature, so it’s best to leave this task to a professional. In some cities, it’s even illegal to remove a tree yourself.

Getting a tree pro with the right experience can be the difference between your transplanted tree surviving or not. When hiring a local tree transplanting and removal service, follow up on references, check their portfolio, ask for a breakdown of the costs, and get proof of liability and workers’ compensation insurance. 

Also, look for companies certified by the International Society of Arboriculture or registered with the Tree Care Industry Association and make sure they have an appropriate state or city license.

If a tree isn’t pruned, it can inhibit proper growth and fruit production, cause damage to both the tree and your property, and create entry points for pests and diseases. Pruning a tree enhances its stability, appearance, shape, and growth. Pruning trees regularly can also save you money long-term by avoiding overgrown or dangerous dying trees.

For safety reasons, leaning trees are best removed by a professional, as they may often tear away from the hinge, causing you to lose control over where the tree falls. If you choose to cut down a tree leaning slightly, avoid cutting off root protrusions before you start. Make your hinge a little longer than usual by cutting it deeper (up to 30% of the diameter) and applying a wedge into the felling cut on the side the tree is leaning. Stand away from the direction the tree leans while making your felling cut.

The best plan of action for an unhealthy or unsafe tree will depend on its condition. An arborist can recommend whether trimming or removal is the right call for your tree. Preventive tree trimming can keep trees safe and healthy, so make regular tree trimming a part of your yard maintenance plan.
