"I called Luis after I received his information from Home Advisor, and he got right back to me. He was actually in the area on another job, and agreed to stop by to look at the job. He was right on time, and after seeing the job (which was taking down a tree in conjunction with a pool project) I received a fair bid -- and he was able to come back in the afternoon to do the job. His team was professional, efficient, and took away all debris. I plan to use his company for all my tree trimming and maintenance in the future. Finally, Luis put me in touch with an arborist he works with, who will support maintaining the health of all my trees."

"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."

"hard workers, polite, respectful of property, and reasonably priced for work that needed to be done. They climbed and cut down a large forked tree next to house. I plan on having them back in a few weeks to cut two more large trees down. All in the back yard. No damage to deck, roof or anything else. Worked next to rose bushes and I still have roses in tact. Unbelievable. thanks guys!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

DIY pruning is possible for small trees and shrubs with basic tools. However, for larger trees, more hazardous removals, or to ensure proper pruning techniques are used, it is recommended to hire a professional for safety.

You’ll want to have your palm trees trimmed during the spring, ideally in May, before hurricane season sets in, which generally takes place during the late summer. Palm trees grow fastest over the summer months. You’ll also want to trim your palm trees when you notice:

  • Brown fronds 

  • Dry leaves

  • Flower pods

  • Fruit

  • Fronds overgrown in power lines

  • Frond encroaching upon your neighbor’s home or yard 

  • Visible damage from a storm

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.

Most trees can be successfully transplanted while they are young, but pines, walnuts, and some oak tree varieties are more difficult to move because their root systems grow deeper than most other trees. Also, trees adapted to sandy soil with wide root systems like beeches, willows, and aspens are harder to dig out because their roots spread much farther out from the trunk. In these cases, unless the trees are very young and small, it’s a good idea to consult a tree planting professional.

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.
