"Brian and Miguel did a great job trimming five trees in our yard. They were very professional,friendly,and did the tree work with the utmost Safety at all times. They hauled off all of the cut tree limbs and throughly cleaned up the debris afterwards. A couple of days later we called them back to build a new gate. After seeing the great work they did,several of our neighbors hired them to do work too. Prices are affordable, beat others we called for free estimates. I highly recommend ALVARADO'S TREE SERVICE AND FENCING, LLC. We will use them for future tree and fence work whenever needed. Very pleasent to deal with,unlike Salesmen other companies sent out for free estimates. I do not care for sales pitches. Again, I highly recommend ALVARADO'S TREE SERVICE AND FENCING !"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Completely topping a plum tree is a risky business. Cut too much, and you’ll kill your tree. That said, you do need to trim the top of your tree to encourage bushy growth, maintain your tree’s vase shape, and limit size. 

A plum tree's central leader (or trunk) should never extend more than 3 feet above the highest branch. When you first plant your tree, cut the central leader so it’s 2 to 3 feet tall. As it grows, cut it back 12 to 20 inches until it reaches its desired height. Never prune more than one-third of the new growth.

For small trees, tree removal should take just a couple of hours to complete. Assume that a mid-sized tree will take between four and eight hours, depending on the extent of the equipment required and the health of the tree. Remember to add up to two hours for stump removal. Larger trees could take as long as one or two working days, about eight hours each.

Rock salt or Epsom salt can damage and kill tree roots over several weeks and can even assist in removing the tree's stump. However, you need to drill holes or cut into the stump and surface tree roots to inject them properly with the salt. Repeat the process every two weeks until the roots visibly rot away.

A general rule is that trees need 10 gallons of water for each inch of the tree’s diameter. For large trees, that can amount to approximately 160 gallons of water or more. Watering big trees to this extent can take quite a bit of time using a hose. For this reason, you may consider installing a soaker hose or sprinkler system to make the job easier.  

Generally, avoid trimming trees in the summer (with the exception of pruning fruit trees as needed). Trees use a lot of energy in the summer, most of which is relegated to new growth. If you chop it too early, you could stunt the next season's growth. Again, when in doubt, do some research based on the specific tree type.
