"I can’t recommend Juan Pablo and his team enough. I don't think I've said "I'm so impressed!" this many times in one day. First, I'll mention the things people tend care about the most. When I called Juan Pablo for an estimate shortly after the wind storm, he responded the same day and was able to come by the next morning. We needed a large Arizona ash, a large hackberry and a medium cedar tree cut down. The ash hung over our neighbor’s property and over our house. The hackberry hung over our back fence. Both of these things made the job more difficult. Juan Pablo provided a clear written estimate the same day. We contracted with him on Tuesday evening, and he confirmed right away for Thursday the same week. Juan Pablo and his team arrived at 8am that day and immediately got to work. They were courteous, professional, and organized. He initially expected the job would take two days, which was reasonable given the size of the trees. Juan Pablo and his team worked nonstop and got the job done in under 8 hours. You can’t even tell his team was here other than the missing trees and some saw dust around the tiny tree stumps left. JP’s Trees Service was the most affordable of the six companies we called for an estimate. Now for the things other people may not care about but are worth mentioning. Watching Juan Pablo work, he is truly a craftsman. The skill and precision with which he worked was beyond impressive. He was also clearly committed to maintaining his safety and that of his team. Everyone wore chainsaw safety clothing, he practiced roping and harness skills that would put many rockclimbers to shame, and was clearly vigilant about spotting where each branch would fall. This may not be a big priority for some people. But I would much rather give my money to someone who runs a responsible operation and looks out for his employees’ safety. We went with Juan Pablo because we liked him and his honest assessment of our trees. The fact that his estimate was the lowest was just a plus. Frankly, I would have paid more for the quality of work done. We will be calling him for any future needs and will happily pay more if he chooses to increase his prices. Also, I'm not sure what the reviewer from 5/2021 is talking about with regards to Juan Pablo's English. I speak fluent Spanish and have no problem switching to Spanish if it's clear English is difficult for the other person. My husband only speaks English. We both had multiple conversations with Juan Pablo in English without any confusion or difficulty whatsoever."

"Felipe gave 100% effort to our backyard project - installing new limestone steps, re-sodding, adding a stone garden, planting and general seasonal clean-up. He made excellent suggestions and worked very hard to satisfy, despite our constant requests. Couldn't be happier with the results."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

Tree roots are hearty and complex systems, so they don’t die immediately after the rest of the tree is removed. If you leave the root system in place, it takes anywhere from two to seven years for it to run out of nutrients. It is worth noting, however, that the roots stop growing and expanding after cutting down the rest of the tree.

In most cases, you should not use a pruning seal on trees after trimming. Applying a sealant can interfere with the tree's natural healing process, and it does not guarantee protection from pathogens. Instead of sealing the cut, the best practice is to support the tree's natural recovery by providing it with plenty of water and a dormant-style fertilizer. However, there are exceptions. Pruning seals may be recommended for very vulnerable species, like elm trees, in areas where dangerous diseases such as Dutch elm disease are prevalent. In these specific situations, the protection offered by a sealant can outweigh its downsides. For advice tailored to your situation, especially after cutting large branches, it is best to consult a local tree trimming professional.

Hiring an arborist or tree surgeon is usually more expensive than a standard tree company, but it is often worth the investment. Arborists have education and certifications that standard companies typically lack, leading to a more professional, expert-level service. Their expertise is particularly valuable for diseased or infested trees, as they can ensure safer removal and help prevent the issue from spreading. Additionally, arborists may be necessary for work near power lines, as uncertified companies are often not permitted to service these trees. If your goal is to preserve the health of your trees, an arborist is the best choice. Their services, such as stump grinding, are also performed with greater expertise to ensure a safe depth that won't cause your lawn to collapse over time.

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.
