"This company did a great job, came out on a Saturday provided me a quote for the job, and returned on Memorial Day to complete the project. Provided me a competitive price to trim two oak trees in my front yard. Took the time to explain the process and how he was going to trim the tree. After trimming the tree, cleaned everything up as if they were not there. Did an amazing job trimming the tree and did not hack it to pieces. Would definitely hire this company again, and will recommend to anyone in the neighborhood looking for tree work."

"They arrived early and proceeded to get to work. There were about 4 or 5 guys working on the team. I didn't want a one-man show. I wanted a team of guys to work on my yard. They ground every stump in my yard and trimmed the trees near my pool. They removed each stump and blew away any remaining debris in my driveway. When they finished, I pointed out an additional tree to trim. They quickly trimmed the tree and removed the limbs. I'm glad I selected Smart Choice Tree Service. They did an excellent job at a fair price! I would definitely recommend them and hire them again."

"Melvin and his crew were absolutely fabulous! I have no words to tell you how amazing they were and how satisfied we were with his work removing our two almost 40 year old live oak trees. He was prompt and arrived on time. His prices were very reasonable, and he wouldnâ  t accept payment until every last detail was completed. He was kind, personal, and easy to communicate with via text or phone. I highly recommend him and his very hard working crew! What a blessing they are!"

"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!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Carefully pruning small roots no thicker than three inches in diameter won’t harm the tree. However, cutting larger roots may impact the tree's stability and nutrient absorption. It's advisable to consult an arborist or tree care professional to evaluate the root's size, the tree's health, and the potential impact of cutting. Proper tree pruning techniques and timing can minimize damage, but larger root removal may necessitate expert guidance to avoid compromising the tree's overall health and stability.

Some trees will bounce back just fine, and others will struggle and possibly die. Evergreens, for instance, have a very difficult time recovering after droughts and usually die after periods of extreme dryness. Usually, you’ll have to just wait and see—if the drought occurs in wintertime, it’s possible that your tree will recover during the gentler springtime.

If you’re wondering why tree trunks are painted white in your area, it’s usually to prevent sunscald, a condition where extreme shifts in temperature can cause tree bark to split. Fruit trees are especially vulnerable to sunscald, so this treatment is worth considering if it’s something that affects your trees.

Unless there’s some sort of rule in your community’s homeowners’ association that requires you to remove a stump, there’s no law that says you have to take it out. If you’re not wedded to the idea of removing it, there are plenty of ways to get creative with this tree remnant. Using the stump as the medium for a wood carving or turning it into a planter are just two examples of ways to repurpose a tree stump.

Generally, you do not have the right to take fruit from a neighbor's tree, even if the branches overhang your property. The fruit is considered the property of the tree's owner. While you may have the right to trim branches that cross into your yard, the fruit on them typically still belongs to your neighbor. However, laws can vary by state and municipality. In some areas, branches that extend into your yard or trees that straddle a property line may entitle you to some of the fruit. The best course of action is to speak with your neighbor, as they may be happy to share. If a conversation is not possible, check your local regulations before picking any fruit.
