"The Dalton Landscapes LLC contacted me very promptly and quoted a very fair price for the cutting down and removing several old trees in the back of our property, as well as the cutting down and stump grinding of a sickly pear tree closer to the house. The team arrived on time, and worked so hard, and picked up and removed all the scattered limbs left behind. The stump removal is quite impressive, as they compacted the hole that remained and formed a mound over top, which looks very professional. I highly recommend Dalton Landscapes if you need trees removed, and I'm sure they are just as efficient with their other lawn maintenance services. My appreciation goes out to their hard-working and very polite team!"

"We would and will highly recommend this company. They worked their tails off literally to do a slightly difficult Elm tree removal. We were very blessed to have them do this job. They really cared and worked well into close to 12 hrs for 2 days in a row! Thank you Henry's Tree LLC! Paul Parker & Donna"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The best time to cut down a tree is during its dormant season, typically in winter or early spring, after all the leaves have fallen. Removing a tree during this period is advantageous for several reasons. Frozen ground helps secure the tree stump, protects the surrounding landscape from damage, and reduces the risk of the tree falling in an unintended direction. With the leaves gone, there is less risk of the tree's foliage getting tangled with other trees. Additionally, since this is often a slower season for tree services, you may be able to hire a professional at a lower rate. This dormant period is also the best time for tree trimming.

You may be looking to identify maple trees to use for home improvement projects. In that case, you can tell hard maples by looking at their leaves. Leaves will have a U-shaped dip, or sinus, between the points, or lobes, of the leaves. Leaves of soft maples tend to have V-shaped sinuses.

If you already have the cut wood in front of you, look for a light, uniform color to identify hard maple wood and check for variations of red, gray, or brown streaks and an overall darker color in soft maple wood.

Generally, you’ll want to avoid pruning more than 25% of the tree’s canopy at one time. While pruning your tree is important, it’s possible to do it too often or to go too far. Again, this is why hiring a tree trimming pro to do the work is wise. However, if you do decide to DIY, going slow and trimming gradually is the name of the game.

Before you cut down a dead palm tree, try to revive it using the methods listed above. However, there are instances when it makes sense to remove a dead palm tree, including:

  • The heavily infected tree will infect nearby trees, bushes, and plants.

  • The palm’s roots are overtaking your yard, foundation, and sidewalk and causing structural damage.

  • The tree is unstable and a hazard to your property, your neighbor’s property, and pedestrians.

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.
