Customers say: Quick response

"The crew was on time, very professional, and extremely polite and considerate. They cleaned up afterward and even offered some tips on how to use some pieces of the tree that we wanted to keep as decorations. (We took the advice and were pleased with it.) We recommend them highly. We don't know them personally. Only contact was hiring them through Angie's List. Will use them again if needed."

"What can I say about Newman's tree service? Give your head a rest calling around for the best price for your tree service needs. I am absolutely satisfied and happy of the work they did taking down my 2 trees. Other than the shaving and dirt you would never know a tree used to be there. I was so pleased to see that with the stump grinder they went around the outside of where the tree was and got all the roots above the ground and in the ground so nothing can grow back. The two guys cleaned everything up, no sticks or roots remained on the grond. I got a kick out of watching one of them picking up the smallest of twigs after all of their work. That's my work ethic too and thats why seeing him doing it brought a smile to my face. Both men were very respectful, polite, professional and knowledgeable in answering apll of our questions. They had to be hungry because they never stopped working so I gave them a tip so they could grab something to eat after all their hard work. I would 100%"

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

You should avoid cutting off the top of mature cherry trees. This process is called tree topping, and it’s not recommended for cherry trees—or any trees, for that matter. Tree topping removes between one-third to half of the length of the tree trunk, resulting in structurally unsound, fruitless suckers. The only exception is for saplings. Young pie, sour, and tart cherry trees that are over 30 inches tall in the fall or winter before the tree blooms can benefit from heading cuts.

It may be possible, but transplanting a large, mature tree can be a tricky project, and some trees handle it better than others. If you have a tree you need to save and are considering transplanting it elsewhere, we highly suggest calling a tree removal service and arranging a consultation to see what they say (and how much a full transplant would cost).

Many species, especially when well-established, are not fans of transplantation. You’ll need to decide if you want to risk splashing the cash, understanding that transplantation isn’t always successful. Again, this is where hiring a pro is helpful, as they can give you all the essential info you need to ensure your tree stands a fighting chance.

Deciduous shade trees (the type of trees whose leaves fall off in autumn) need to be pruned in late winter—between February and March. That’s because it’s easier to find and remove sick or dead branches when no leaves are present. And wounds close and heal faster in colder temperatures so pruning them at this time also makes them less prone to infection.

Yes, you should trim the lower branches of your maple tree for safety. Trimming maple trees as they grow helps lift the crown and canopy and trains it to grow straight up. A good rule of thumb is to prune enough branches to leave 6 feet of clearance under the tree.
