"I got them on a coupon on Angie's List. They cleaned up. They spray the tree, you are supposed to spray the live oak tree cuttings with this black stuff and they did all of that.

What impressed me with them, like I said, we had used them initially when we moved back into our house after it had been a rental. The property manager did not make it clear to us that our trees needed trimming. So our back yard looked like Jurassic Park. It was just so overgrown. So we had 1-Two-Tree come out from an Angie's List coupon. They were here all day with three guys. They did a great job. They sent us a thank you card and they sent us a Christmas card. So when we needed more tree trimming, my husband wanted to use the guys that sent us the Christmas card.

They bring a crew that gets the job done efficiently, so you don't have 2 guys with a chain saw at your house all day. I like that. They have a certified arborist on their staff. They clean up. They were very receptive to requests that I had. I don't want them to cut off too much of the oak tree and I like our privacy in the back yard so I didn't want them to cut too much of the palms. They tolerated my hovering and answered my questions. So that is going to be who we use.

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Since each tree is different, it’s impossible to say how long a dead tree can remain on your property. While it could be days, months, or even years, it’s highly likely that, at some point, the tree will fall. In the meantime, dying or dead trees can become a haven for pests, so it’s best to have them removed sooner rather than later.

Tree roots can take weeks to years to die, depending on the method you use. Chemical herbicides take the least amount of time—typically between three and four weeks—while homemade methods, like covering an old stump with leaves, could take between seven and eight years. If you’re unsure which method to use or how quickly you need to act, consulting with a pro is always a good idea.

Tree pruning is a common and helpful tree maintenance technique that involves carefully cutting and trimming unwanted branches so that the tree can continue to grow and thrive. Pruning is done carefully and intentionally. Tree topping is a frowned-upon method that involves removing and cutting most or the entirety of the top of the tree, including structurally important branches.

There are many signs that a tree is diseased or dying, and if you suspect that’s the case, you should call an arborist immediately. You might notice rot or fungus on the trunk or that the tree is beginning to lean to one side. Brittle branches or signs of root damage are other indicators that a tree is in trouble. If the tree is dying, it might be time to cut the tree down so it doesn’t fall.

It’s possible, although a lot depends on the cause of damage and what steps you take. If the remaining parts of the maple tree are alive and not under attack by disease or pests, they can often be saved even if large portions of the maple tree have died. Frequent watering, careful pruning, mulch, and any recommended fungicides or insecticides can all help with survival.
