"I cannot recommend this company enough. They all did fantastic work and were such a pleasure to work with. We did tree removal, new retaining walls, artificial turf, new sod, flowerbeds, river rock, new sprinklers, new fence, pool deck paint, and they reinstalled our existing deck railing that was about to fail (built by others). They turned a space we didn’t like into something we couldn’t be more proud of!!"

"Matt Rogan is professional and efficient, while being friendly and personable. Matt provided a reasonable quote to trim a tree and 2 shrubs. He and his crew did an excellent job in a short amount of time. The “after”photo is attached for the tree and 1 shrub. There was not enough file space for the “before” photos. Matt also referred me to someone who was able to replace some pipe and a fitting for the septic clean out the same day. I highly recommend Rogan’s Tree Service."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally speaking, you’ll want to avoid flush cuts, which are cuts made as extremely close to the trunk or main branch. These cuts can weaken your tree, lower its natural defense mechanisms, and even cause decay. You’ll also want to avoid tree topping, which is the total removal of the leader and upper main branches of a tree. 

Most pros will advise against either of these methods, which is why hiring a pro is often the best choice when it comes to tree trimming.

If you’re buying a small tree with lots of room to grow, expect to pay around $100 to $200 for a potted version. But if you’re buying a larger tree—say one over 10 feet—prices rise, starting in the $500 to $600 range and increasing quickly from there. Keep in mind that paying for professional palm tree planting or transplanting services will increase the cost.

Coverage varies quite a bit by policy, but most homeowners' insurance policies will cover $500 to $1,000 of the cost of removing a tree. Additionally, if your tree causes damage to your property, like your house, many policies will cover some or all of the costs to repair the damage, depending on why the tree fell.

Dead tree branches should be removed, because they can cause the tree to lose nutrients. They can also make the tree more susceptible to disease and pests. Removing dead and diseased branches can help the tree recover and increase the odds of saving a dying tree. Make sure to prune the tree correctly to avoid damaging it further.

Late winter is ideal, but if you’re pruning apple trees in the spring, prune them as early as possible in the season. You want to ensure your tree is just creeping out of dormancy and hasn’t started pushing out new growth. If you prune your tree too late into spring, you generally won’t see results until the following year.

That said, there’s no pruning season for unhealthy growth. Remove dead, dying, or diseased branches as soon as you notice them, regardless of the time of year.
