"I couldn’t be happier with the tree removal service we received from San's Tree Service. From start to finish, the team was professional, punctual, and incredibly efficient. They handled everything safely and with great care, including cleanup—our yard looked better afterward than it did before! Their communication was clear, pricing was fair, and the entire process was stress-free. Highly recommend this company to anyone needing tree removal or cleanup. Outstanding work!"

"Being a veteran myself, I try to find and utilize veteran owned businesses. So when the 13 Bradford Pear tress lining my driveway needed pruning and shaping, I found Rowan Tree Care online as a Vet owned business and gave them a call. Ed answered and took my information and scheduled an estimate for the next morning. Upon arriving, Ed was professional and friendly. He took time to listen to what i wanted done and then explained how his crew would perform the pruning, etc… After agreeing to the estimate, he then scheduled the service for the following week. His crew showed up at 9a.m. On Monday as stated and immediately got to work. Everything was competed to our agreement and our trees look great! Thanks Ed for a great job!"

"We had a very large and tall tree in our fenced backyard. It had died from some disease, and we were afraid for when limbs would start to fall off. Juan came out and gave us a reasonable quote to cut tree down and cut into easily burned sections. He was fully prepared to do the work and had more than enough tools to do the job when he arrived. His method of working was fast and safe for him and us. We will request his services again when we need another tree taken down or trimmed. Highly recommend him to anyone needing tree services."

"Devin and Landen did an amazing job! I had two large, unwieldy, dead trees that needed to come down, and they did not disappoint! They were prompt, professional, courteous, and considerate of my needs. They also went an "extra mile" and put down grass seed and some hay where there was some disturbed soil around the work site! The value for the money was top-notch, and I will definitely call them in the future for any tree work that comes up!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

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.

It takes anywhere from three to seven years for a stump to decompose on its own. This timeframe can depend on the kind of tree and your climate. The lower to the ground the stump is, the faster it rots. If you kill a tree stump with salt, boiling water, herbicide, light deprivation, or burning, the tree stump decomposes faster. 

Yes, burning wood with Dutch elm disease is a safer way to dispose of it than, say, tossing it in with the rest of your yard waste, which could potentially allow it to spread to healthy trees. But it’s always a good idea to check with your local government to make sure you’re complying with any ordinances about removing diseased trees as well as burning brush piles.

If a disease has attacked and destroyed the roots, then the tree may fall over as soon as it has died or while part of it is still alive. Trees that die with their roots left in place tend to stay standing for much longer, but those roots will decay eventually, allowing gravity to do the rest.

If executed correctly your tree should survive after being transplanted to a new spot. However, effective transplanting requires six months, careful root pruning, safe transport to the new location, and replanting in prime soil conditions. You’ll also need an appropriately sized root ball for a complete tree transplant. A good rule of thumb is that, for every inch in diameter, your tree’s root ball needs to be around 11 inches. So a tree with a diameter of six inches needs a root ball of approximately 66 inches.
