"Ronny has a great team of guys to cut trees. He cut down, removing two Oak trees. grinding the stumps, and cut and trimmed four other Oak Trees. He did everything he said he would and then more! His tree service works safely, takes their time to do things right, with the outcome you discussed and hoped for. He left the lawn perfect by raking the entire yard three times for leaves and tree debris. At completion, he asked you to look over his work to ensure you were pleased. He was wonderful to work with. I have used tree trimmers for years, and Ronny's Tree Service is by far the BEST...He takes great pride in his work, and the tree trimmers are very respectful. I can't recommend this team of hard workers enough. You will not be disappointed! I am grateful that I found this service and will continue to use Ronny's Tree Service."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Debris removal is often included in the overall cost of having a tree removed from your property. However, tree maintenance service companies do not always include debris removal in their pricing, so ask any contractors offering tree trimming cost estimates whether or not removal is included. If you want to keep the wood mulch, ask if they charge extra for it as well.

Trees that flower in the spring—like dogwood, cherry, magnolia, and pear—should not be pruned during the winter. These spring-flowering plants grow buds on old growth, so you’ll actually remove what would’ve been gorgeous flowering foliage. Instead, wait to prune until right after they bloom, when the flowers fade.

The felling notch you make before you make the final cut will determine which way the tree will fall. The cut will be in a wedge or triangle, and the tree will fall from the highest point of the triangle. You can use this, as well as the process described above, to estimate where a tree will fall. 

Yes, carefully prune back dead branches—don’t wait for pruning season. This helps keep your maple tree healthy and also helps prevent large branches from falling unexpectedly. Don’t seal the cut branch—trees can naturally take care of these wounds—but be sure to remove any source of fungus or pest infestation to help save the tree.

If you don’t stake a tree that needs support, it could be at greater risk of being damaged or failing completely, whether it uproots or falls over. That could cause damage to your property or other surrounding trees. If you want to grow healthy trees, you may need to stake them for best results.
