"Fast and efficient. I had to cut down a large tree, as it was 75% dead and I needed some trees in my back yard trimmed that were above my roof. They cut down the tree very quickly, chopped it into smaller pieces and hauled it off. They also hauled off all the branches that were removed in my back yard. Then, they raked up any smaller pieces! I wish all contractors that I have and will call were as professional as these guys. Danny is also a nice guy."

"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!"

"They called to set appointment the next day after I chose them on AL and came the next day to assess our needs. We had a drainage problem causing potential damage to our foundation. A solution was presented and the work was scheduled to begin in a few days. They were there right on time, and finished the work exactly as described in the planning phase. They were highly professional and knowledgeable in their work. The finished project was so much more beautiful than I imagined. I have the utmost confidence in these gentlemen and have hired them for an additional job to repair brick that is cracking up and pulling away from our house. We were very fortunate to have found them when we did. Thanks so much Brothers Landscaping!!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally, you’ll want to avoid pruning more than 25% of the tree’s canopy at one time. While pruning your tree is important, it’s possible to do it too often or to go too far. Again, this is why hiring a tree trimming pro to do the work is wise. However, if you do decide to DIY, going slow and trimming gradually is the name of the game.

Light-bark trees are most notorious for producing lots of sap when wounded. These varieties include maples, birches, poplars, dogwoods, magnolias, and elms, and they will bleed more when the trees are dormant. That’s why it’s a good idea to prune them in the summer months rather than waiting until winter.

A dead tree should always be cut down, because it could fall and cause injuries or damage, and it can also attract insects like carpenter ants. A tree that’s diseased beyond repair should also be cut down, but it’s not always easy for a homeowner to tell. Signs of disease include dying branches, a hollow trunk, leaning, and discolored or missing leaves, but your best bet is to hire a local arborist who can evaluate the tree and tell you if it can be saved or should be cut down.

The shepherd’s tree, native to the Kalahari Desert in Africa, holds the record for the deepest known tree roots at over 230 feet deep. Some African communities refer to it as the “Tree of Life” since it provides food, shade, and medicinal properties to the surrounding community.

Most jobs take 2-8 hours, but extensive trimming may take multiple days.
