"Shawn came out and gave us a quote then we hired them for next day service. The trees were trimmed along the roof line and they were done around three hours. Perfect. The crew came in a couple times to make sure everything looked OK and did touchups as we asked. No fuss, great job cleaned up all the trimmed branches as well! Totally recommend!"

"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 didn't 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."

"Outstanding in every aspect. Team was professional and friendly. Were happy to answer our questions and wanted us to be happy with the work performed. The owner was on-site and worked with the crew. Clean-up was outstanding and they left the yard cleaner than they found it. We highly recommend JC Tree Service."

"Had several other services scheduled for quotes. Juan called within a couple hours and came out next day. Gave us quote and told us how he’d do the job. Accepted his quote on spot as I thought it was fair and less than I had expected. His crew started and completed the entire job the following day. Everything was as discussed/agreed from trimming to removal, to clean up. Will use him again next time we need tree service and based on our experience with this job will gladly recommend Campos to others needing tree service."

"Overall good job (I would hire them again). However, poor communication with the working crew. Only after they left I realized that one of the branches was cut too far out and they could have asked to leave some wood for the fire wood. Other than that, no complaints."

"Cesar and his crew responded quickly and was able to do a short notice job for us. He arrived on time and after we discussed the small project, he was able to go right away! After grinding 3 small tree stumps, he asked if there was anything else he could do. He was able to trim some high branches away from our electric service lines. He offered suggestions for other landscaping items and asked that we call him for any future needs. I am very pleased with his services and highly recommend them to anyone needing tree and shrubbery maintenance!"

"DR Bob treated my tree for Dutch elm disease, as well as my shrubs for spider mites, and black spot. Definitely cheaper than replacing all my shrubs, which I was preparing to do. Prompt and professional. Fingers crossed, this works!"

"I met David to help quote me on trimming and cutting down some trees in my front/ back yard that were overgrown. We walked through my property as I stated what I was looking for ro be done. I hired him on the spot as his quote was reasonable. It took him and his crew two days to do finish the project but I could not be more pleased. My trees can finally breathe as well as my house. Attached before and after. "

Arborists questions, answered by experts

On average, tree removal costs around $750, with a typical range between $200 and $2,000. The final price depends on several factors, including the tree's height, trunk diameter, species, and overall health. Accessibility is also a key factor; costs will be higher if the tree is in a hard-to-reach area or located near structures like power lines or your home. Additional costs may apply for services such as stump removal (which can add $100 to $150), log-splitting, debris cleanup, and obtaining necessary permits. It is also customary to tip the professional, usually between $20 and $100.

It depends on the problem, the affected part of the tree, the risk of the pathogen spreading, and the overall health of your tree. Many diseases, fungal infections, and insect infestations can be successfully treated, especially if the issue is only in a few branches. However, if a disease is too widespread, too severe, too easily spread, or in the roots, the tree will likely need to be removed.

While there is a lot of debate about whether boiling water is strong enough to kill tree roots, it is not best to remove the roots from large, old trees. You may be able to weaken young roots enough to remove them manually, but boiling water will likely not do the trick for large root systems.

The best time to cut down a tree is during its dormant season, typically in winter or early spring, after all the leaves have fallen. Removing a tree during this period is advantageous for several reasons. Frozen ground helps secure the tree stump, protects the surrounding landscape from damage, and reduces the risk of the tree falling in an unintended direction. With the leaves gone, there is less risk of the tree's foliage getting tangled with other trees. Additionally, since this is often a slower season for tree services, you may be able to hire a professional at a lower rate. This dormant period is also the best time for tree trimming.

Using vinegar to kill tree roots is just one of the clever ways to use vinegar around the house. The method works best when you apply vinegar as directly to the root system as possible. For example, if the old tree roots and stump are currently exposed, drill holes in the tops of the roots and pour undiluted white vinegar into the holes to soak into the plant. Remember that vinegar can kill the surrounding grass and plants should it pour over the edge.
