"Leigh and his team did an awesome job taking down an 80 foot tree in my back yard. A bucket truck could not be used due my fence and clearances, however the spider lift fit through my gate and was awesome in completing the job. Leigh is very professional and easy to communicate with. His guys also cut up sections of both trees so that they could be split, seasoned and used as firewood. I would hire him again."

This is how the skyline looked after we removed several trees that were too close to the right side of the house.  There were more trees too close on the left side of the house, that can be removed in another project.
This is a good opportunity to see how we set up a  driveway job.  You can see our rear-mounted bucket truck, and plywood to protect the driveway as needed.  You can also see our chipper and chip truck, and our tool trailer is parked along the curb.
This is after getting set up to cut the largest tree.

Customers say: Quality work

"I've needed to get several stumps removed for a long time. It's hard to find people to show up and give you a quote. Oddly enough the guys at A+ tree service were driving by and saw that I needed work done. The quote they gave me was more than reasonable. They even performed the work same day. I would give them 100 stars if possible."

"Second Nature worked quickly and efficiently with me when I reached out to them about doing aeration for my lawn. The price was reasonable, and they seemed to do a quality job as far as I can tell. I only used them for the aeration since I normally do the fertilizer and seeding myself."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Finding a reliable arborist starts with researching specialists in your area and checking their licensing and certifications. Use online resources like the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to conduct research on each company. Next, contact the arborist and ask the following questions to see whether they are the right fit for your project:

  • Do you handle or specialize in dealing with the issue I’m having?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Do you have any third-party certifications?

  • What equipment and strategies do you plan to use?

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.

Often, it’s the homeowner’s responsibility to handle the aftermath when a neighbor’s tree falls on their property. But if a tree has been obviously dead for a significant period of time and caused damage when it fell, a case can be made that the owner should have removed it, especially if the neighbor wrote you a letter about the tree or asked you to take it down. This can be grounds for a successful lawsuit in claims court and is a good reason to always pay attention to your trees and remove dead trees before they fall.

For small trees, tree removal should take just a couple of hours to complete. Assume that a mid-sized tree will take between four and eight hours, depending on the extent of the equipment required and the health of the tree. Remember to add up to two hours for stump removal. Larger trees could take as long as one or two working days, about eight hours each.

While it’s best to have access to large, healthy, strong trees in a safe position, treehouse living is still possible without them. Contractors can fit tree posts to build the structure onto or use posts as additional support alongside the trees themselves. If you’re in doubt about the suitability of the trees on your land, consult with a local treehouse builder before you start the project.
