"We used Ronny Tree service multiple times. They are profesional, respectful and accountable. They are very easy to work and communicate with. The first time, they grinned the tree roots for us. The second time they removed a huge pine tree for us. They performed a perfect job. We were worried they may cause some damage to our property because the tree is so tall. But they promptly removed the tree with no damages to our property at all. They cleaned up everything each time. They are so efficient with what they do. We were truly amazed by their work. We will definitely hire them back as we still have lots of work left for our yard. You will not regret by hiring them to see their excellent work for yourself. They are trustworthy people with great work ethic. Thank you Ronny Tree Service for taking care of our yard."

"I contacted a few different companies for tree removal, and South Zone gave me the most fair and transparent estimate. They didn't try to upsell me on unnecessary services, which I really appreciated. The crew was friendly and incredibly hardworking. They removed 10 large pines and ground down the stumps in a single afternoon. They even took the time to blow the sawdust off my driveway and patio before leaving. High-quality work at a very reasonable price!"

"I hired Kleen Kuts Tree Service of Manvel to remove an eighteen-year-old oak tree that was damaging my yard and home and grind the stump. I have nothing but positive things to say about my experience. Eddie and his crew were incredibly professional, efficient and thorough. The guys arrived on time and were prepared with the proper equipment to safely remove the tree. No damage was done to my house or plants and, after the tree was down, they cleaned up after themselves, leaving my yard looking spotless. My neighbors who watched the process have even told me that the team was fast and efficient. I couldn't be happier with the level of service I received from Kleen Kuts. The responsiveness, professionalism and attention to detail exceeded my expectations. Oh – and the icing is that his bid was the best one I got! I would highly recommend Kleen Kuts to anyone in need of tree removal services (or tree trimming). Thank you for a job well done!"

"Me and my family were impacted by hurricane Beryl which caused a tree to fall on our house and puncture the roof in several areas. We contacted several tree removal companies and they were all stating that it would be about a week until they could get to us. On top of that most were charging $5,000 plus. To us that was an egregious amount because we had a tree also fall on our house back in May and was a fraction of that price. Mr. Cole and his team came out and removed the tree in what seemed like 30 minutes. The area where the tree hit was by a bunch of windows and they completed the job without causing any further damages to the structure or the windows. Mr. Cole and his team was very thorough about what needed to be done and following through by completing the task. Their demeanor and attitude was more like family helping you through a rough time and they were exactly who we needed at that time. They were the cheapest price we came across out of the six or so companies we called. I have already recommended their services to several friends and families. This is what a business should look like and treat people like. God speed to their company and the heart behind their actions."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

You can trim just one side of the tree, especially when that side is growing near something like a power line or a home. Pros will carefully trim the tree back until it is safe from that structure. While this is common, it also needs to be done with the utmost care, as pruning or trimming away at one side of the tree may make it structurally unsound. This instance is yet another where hiring a pro is wise, especially if power lines are involved.

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.

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

Pruning can impact cold hardiness—but it’s less about the exact temperature and more about temperature variation. Generally, you don’t want to prune trees when there’s a risk of temperatures suddenly dropping from 50 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit to 0 degrees Fahrenheit or below. A tree is most sensitive until 48 hours after it’s pruned.

There are two types of arborists: certified and consulting. A certified arborist is licensed and equipped to provide tree pruning, planting, fertilizing, monitoring, transplanting, treatment, and removal services. A consulting arborist specializes in tree appraisals, diagnosing problems and recommending treatments for illnesses. However, they will not provide these services themselves. Most consulting arborists are certified arborists who can refer you to a tree service that can administer the correct treatments.
