"We have a huge oak tree in our backyard that needed trimming and thinned out. Isac clearly explained what needed to be done and how they would do it with the small amount of space open for dropped limbs. They avoided damage to plants and shed by guiding them with ropes. They hauled away all the debris. The men were careful and professional doing their work. They also ground down two stumps from trees cut down a year or more ago. Their machine easily ground them way down below ground level along with the large roots protruding in many directions. They did everything for a very reasonable rate and I will call on them for any future work. I highly recommend them. Thank you Isac and crew! Great job! Note: They can also do landscaping and painting. The before and after pictures I uploaded unfortunately don't indicate a large difference because the before picture was taken a week earlier when the leaves were just starting to appear."

He even added some extras to give the gate some extra security. He completed the project quicker than I expected. I couldn’t have asked for a better job. I’m completely satisfied and pleased with the job he did. I would recommend him to anyone. Harry Daniel"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Licensing requirements for arborists, also known as tree surgeons, vary by state and municipality. Many areas require a license, which often involves specialized education and experience. Even if not mandated, it's wise to hire a licensed professional as they tend to have more experience. Beyond licensing, look for certifications from organizations like the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) or the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA), as this indicates a higher level of expertise. Certified arborists must typically pass a comprehensive exam. Always confirm that the arborist has a business license and is fully insured to protect yourself from liability. Seeking positive recommendations from local homeowners is also a good step in finding a qualified professional.

You will know that an oak tree needs to be removed when you see vertical cracks or dead branch stubs, which indicate internal decay. Other signs include trunk rot near the base of the tree and sprouts or small branches coming from the trunk.

Most tree surgeons cost around $100 per hour or between $70 and $200 per hour for their services. You might get flat fees for more straightforward services, like a tree assessment, tree removal, stump grinding, and one-off treatments, but many times, treatments for tree diseases or pests will be charged based on an hourly rate or a per-visit rate. Since the cost of a tree surgeon can vary widely, it’s best to speak with an arborist near you to get an idea of what your particular issue will cost to correct.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

Burning a tree stump can be effective, but it comes with safety considerations and isn’t always best for every situation. It's essential to check local regulations and assess the safety risks involved. Stumps that are near wooden structures or other non-moveable flammable objects aren’t good candidates for burning due to the risk of the fire spreading. Alternatives like grinding or a DIY stump rotting project might be safer and quicker for getting the job done.
