Customers say: Quick response

"So responsive, polite, helpful, respectful, prompt. They did major pruning and trimming of the very large trees that had been neglected for years surrounding our condominium property, cleaned up beautifully afterwards, and Oscar gave me a lesson in how to prune my patio key lime tree! We could not be happier!"

"They showed up on time and on budget. The work was done amazingly fast, and they cleaned up very well afterward. This was not an easy job, but they made it look that way. I would hire again and I highly recommend Pablo Tree Service."

"I was very impressed with Abel Tree Service! They were always prompt and courteous. I don't know much about trees and bushes, so I didn't know what the best way to trim up those in my yard. Junior at Abel Tree Service clearly knew a lot about the trees and bushes in my yard and gave great advice. My yard looks so much bigger now and more sunlight can reach the other plants. I'm very happy with their work and will use them again."

"A tree in my front yard had begun falling down and was an immediate danger to the public safety and power lines. It was late in the day and no other company would even look at the job until the next day. A crew from J Valdez Tree Service recognize the immediate danger to the public and responded immediately to assess the situation. They determined that the only option was to drop the tall tree onto the street near the power lines. After careful planning, the crew managed to drop the tree onto the street without damaging my fence or utility lines. They quickly removed the large tree that was blocking a public Street with no alternative route for my neighbors to come home or leave. I was extremely satisfied with the job that they did and the speed and safety with which it was done."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

If it’s your property, then you can plant a tree near power lines, but it’s not the best idea. Any vegetation that grows within 10 feet or so of power lines will fall under the responsibility of the utility company, and they may trim or remove it as necessary. If you do move forward with your plan, try to choose a smaller ornamental tree, plant it as far away from the power lines as you can, and keep it trimmed to avoid future problems.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

Generally, homeowners do not need permission to cut down a tree on their own private property, but there are several exceptions where a permit may be required. You might need a permit if the tree is particularly large, old, or a protected species, such as a heritage tree. Trees located near public property or power lines can also be subject to special rules. Additionally, many local governments and homeowners associations (HOAs) have regulations controlling which trees can be removed to manage an area's appearance or prevent the spread of invasive species. To avoid hefty fines, it is crucial to check with your local government and HOA to determine if a permit is needed before you begin.

Generally, you should prune around 20% of an apple tree’s growth—and never more than 30%. This means that if you have a severely overgrown tree, it can take a few seasons to prune it back enough to produce the healthiest fruit. 

If you’re dealing with a newly planted or juvenile tree, hold off on pruning beyond the initial shaping. Wait at least a couple of seasons into fruit production since pruning can increase the number of water sprouts and unproductive foliage.

It’s not as common for Dutch elm disease to affect other types of trees, especially if the surrounding trees aren’t elms. However, it is possible for DED to spread to other trees, particularly in northern states, like Minnesota. In fact, it’s a good idea to use geography to identify wood and determine which types of trees are in your yard. 

Unfortunately, the complex and shallow root system of elm trees makes surrounding elm trees particularly vulnerable to DED. Early discovery is key!
