"James, the owner of the company was quick to come out with one of his expert crew members so that they could accurately access what equipment they would need to use to safely take down the two large trees in our front yard that had become a hazard to our roof. One of the trees was a massive oak that was over sixty years old. We also had a smaller oak tree on the corner of the yard that needed to be trimmed and have the canopy lifted. James was very friendly and professional during his visit and made sure that he understood what we specifically wanted done. Because of the massive size of the tree, it required the use of a bucket truck, and rigging. Branch Boss Tree Company has the proper equipment and a sufficient crew of men to handle the task expertly. James submitted a written proposal the same day that he came out to meet us. We were able to sign it and submit it back the same day and we paid only a deposit of 10%. We were put on the work schedule promptly. They came out and took care of all of the trees, and even raked up all the small debris and cleaned everything up so that the yard and sidewalks were clear. The yard was left looking great, and they did not accept my check for the balance until the work was all done except the last part of the clean up. My cousin saw my yard and was so impressed that he asked for the name of the company in case he wanted some work done on his yard and tree! I would gladly hire Branch Boss Tree Company for any future tree or shrub work in my yard."

Customers say: True professional

"Dr. Bob White & the crew were extremely courteous. He knew exactly what was wrong with my Elm tree & immediately treated it. He was more than fair with me on the cost. I have several more trees that need to be treated. Be assured that BW Insect Control and Tree Care will be the ones that I will call. In my opinion, he is the best."

Anytime I needed questions answered, Jeff was very responsive and stayed on top of any concerns or questions I had. I would highly recommend MDM for your landscaping needs! Steve C. Azle, TX"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

You can trim just one side of the tree, especially when that side is growing near something like a power line or a home. Pros will carefully trim the tree back until it is safe from that structure. While this is common, it also needs to be done with the utmost care, as pruning or trimming away at one side of the tree may make it structurally unsound. This instance is yet another where hiring a pro is wise, especially if power lines are involved.

A tree can grow back from its stump, but full regrowth is unlikely (especially for more stubborn conifer trees). Instead, trees are more likely to send up a number of shoots from the dead stump, which will try to develop into primary stems over time. In other words, it will start to look increasingly bushy. The goal of killing and drying out a tree stump is to prevent that from happening, as well as make the stump easier to completely remove.

While the fastest way to kill a tree is to simply cut it down, there are several other methods to choose from. You should hire a professional tree removal service to cut down a tree to ensure your personal and property safety. Some slower but effective options include treating or grinding the tree stump or using a basal bark treatment. 

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

Transplanting a palm tree is a similar process except for a couple of important differences. First, their root ball doesn’t need to be as large as a “true” tree, which makes them a bit easier to dig up and move around. Second, they struggle more with taking root and staying upright in a new location, so it’s important to give them extra support when staking.
