"Jesus Luna’s tree service was excellent! I was provided a reasonable free quote within an hour of my request for service. The team trimmed my tree, removed all trimmings and raked the area clean. I highly recommend their service to future clients in need of tree removal services."

"A Best Tree service does an A+ job EVERY TIME. I have been using them for at least 15 years to keep our shrubs trimmed and trees, including 3 Huge Red Oaks and a huge Pecan pruned and in good health. Jesus always returns my calls right away and usually will come by the next day to look at the job and give me a great price. I rarely make comments in this manner, but Jesus and his men deserve the praise!"

"I highly recommend Cristian Luna Tree Service! Very fast, very professional and very accommodating. I had a tree in my front yard that was a fall risk and needed to be cut down quickly. They worked within my budget and went above and beyond to get the job done within hours of agreeing on terms. They showed up and finished the job before I even knew they had arrived. They've earned my future business!"

"I recommend B. Martinez Construction and Tree Service in the highest terms possible. Bernardo was punctual and after initial negotiations, Bernardo and his team proceeded to remove the tree. They also removed several branches from a neighboring tree. They were professional and competent workers. They worked steadily and did a good and thorough clean up afterwards. I especially appreciated that Bernardo volunteered to come back the next morning to repair my brick tree ring. I was so impressed with the quality of service I received, I have requested that Bernardo provide me with an additional bid for some brick work. I am always happy when I can find honest, reliable, and capable workers like Bernardo and his helpers!"

Customers say: True professional

"Jake, provided excellence service and great quality!  The back fence was built so much better than average, with 3 crossbeams instead of the normal 2, and the posts were cemented in the ground with new cement and deeper holes.  The gate repair work was to replace the wood slats where the hinges and latches were located, so everything had to be unbolted to make the replacement.  Since my back fence is adjacent to two different neighbors, Jake gave me the cost sharing for each one.  Jake also helped me through the process of making sure utility and cable lines were marked.

My only disappointment is that he doesn't live closer, but I was fortunate that the work I needed to be done was in the winter, when he had more free time."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Unfortunately, if you cut the top off a palm tree, it will die. Instead of budding or branching out, the top begins to slowly rot. That's why having a professional tree trimming at least twice a year is a good idea. If you don’t have experience with trimming your palm tree, you might accidentally cut the top off, leaving a dead and rotting tree in your wake.

Generally, you should prune around 20% of an apple tree’s growth—and never more than 30%. This means that if you have a severely overgrown tree, it can take a few seasons to prune it back enough to produce the healthiest fruit. 

If you’re dealing with a newly planted or juvenile tree, hold off on pruning beyond the initial shaping. Wait at least a couple of seasons into fruit production since pruning can increase the number of water sprouts and unproductive foliage.

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.

In nature, there are many things that can cause a tree to die, including diseases, insects, and natural disasters such as fires or droughts. Non-natural methods of killing a tree include herbicides or manual intervention, such as cutting it down. Consult a tree removal professional about your options for naturally killing a tree.

Trees should be pruned every two to five years, depending on its age and type. Young trees should be inspected and pruned every two to three years. Mature trees should be inspected and trimmed every three to five years, and fruit trees should be pruned annually with a careful eye on seasonal growth. Evergreens typically don’t need pruning, unless branches or limbs are damaged, diseased, or harboring pests.
