They removed it quickly and prevented any further damage to the building. They cleaned the area when they were finished. I will hire Luis and his team again in the future and highly recommend them."

"Martin and his crew were very professional, personable and for the job done exactly as we had asked. They cut down two very large palm trees, removed over 20 sago's and planted a triple trunk palm tree. We asked for advice on another part of the flower beds and Martin gave us a straight answer, which was not to spend money. We greatly appreciated his honesty and he was very easy to work with. Would definitely hire them again and highly recommend them. His crew, while cutting down one of the very large palm trees, discovered a hidden birds nest with three little babies in it. They placed the nest and babies in one our flower pots for safe keeping while they worked in the yard. We then moved the nest and babies to a nearby palm tree, to the relief of the adult birds. The crew could have easily put the birds in with the pile of dead plants and no one would have been the wiser. Definitely will be using them in the future."

"Cesar and his crew responded quickly and was able to do a short notice job for us. He arrived on time and after we discussed the small project, he was able to go right away! After grinding 3 small tree stumps, he asked if there was anything else he could do. He was able to trim some high branches away from our electric service lines. He offered suggestions for other landscaping items and asked that we call him for any future needs. I am very pleased with his services and highly recommend them to anyone needing tree and shrubbery maintenance!"

"I met Jose Mora about three years ago. He told me that he was a tree trimmer, and I asked him to come give me a quote. I have a dozen trees and every year or two I get them trimmed. His price was extremely competitive and I have used him ever since. H is a great guy and does very professional work. I highly recommend him."

"DR Bob treated my tree for Dutch elm disease, as well as my shrubs for spider mites, and black spot. Definitely cheaper than replacing all my shrubs, which I was preparing to do. Prompt and professional. Fingers crossed, this works!"

"The quick response and total professionalism was outstanding. My yard certainly had a few obstacles, but Gil, Raphael, and Jose were detailed and diligent in the installation. And I've been exceedingly happy about the follow up communication. I was totally happy, and look forward to our next project. Thank you."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Transporting a fully-grown tree requires heavy equipment, typically specialized for the task. A tree spade is a truck-mounted tool that removes the tree from the ground in one location, transports it, and places it in a new hole in a new location. A combination of mechanized shovels and lifts is necessary to move very large trees, and the exact tools often depend on location and the surrounding area.

Absolutely. These steps are significantly easier, too, especially when it comes to preserving the root ball and moving the palm tree. However, you will want to make sure the tree has plenty of fertilizer to establish itself and start growing. Supports may also be more important, as it can take extra time for a potted palm to spread out its roots. If you are transferring a palm to another pot, you’ll want to move up a size or two to a larger pot. Make sure the pot has excellent drainage to keep the palm from getting waterlogged.

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.

Make sure the tree roots soak around a day before you dig the tree up for the transplant. Keep the roots wet while the tree is above ground. After the transplant is finished, provide consistent water every day for the first month or so. You don’t want to overwater the tree, but you do want to keep the roots wet so they can thrive in their new environment.

Often, it’s the homeowner’s responsibility to handle the aftermath when a neighbor’s tree falls on their property. But if a tree has been obviously dead for a significant period of time and caused damage when it fell, a case can be made that the owner should have removed it, especially if the neighbor wrote you a letter about the tree or asked you to take it down. This can be grounds for a successful lawsuit in claims court and is a good reason to always pay attention to your trees and remove dead trees before they fall.
