"Great crew. We had 2 large Ash trees removed and a large oak tree in the backyard trimmed. They did a great job and were very professional and they did an awesome job. I was impressed with the grinding of the tree stumps and the roots above the ground. They climbed the trees and were very precise in their cutting to ensure safety of themselves and our property. They used a bucket truck to get the big limbs down and they mulched the limbs and hauled off the big tree trunk sections. The clean up process was excellent as well. They even asked us if we wanted some pieces of wood from the oak tree in the back for firewood. I would definitely recommend them!"

"Edger and his team did an excellent job on removing a limb that fell on my main electrical wire to my house and on my roof from the storm we just had. They topped the tree and removed another dead tree as well as trimmed up my tree in the front yard! They did this job fairly quick! The clean up was excellent!! The price was very reasonable for the work they did it would of cost double with another company. I would recommend them to everyone! Thank you Edgar!"

"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!"

"JP did a great job and consulted with me several times during the process to ensure everything was done to my liking. Cleaned the whole roof and gutters afterward (he trimmed a tree hanging over my house)."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The typical lifespan of a Bradford pear is relatively short, only 15 to 25 years. However, these trees have issues long before their life is over. Due to their soft wood and fast-growing branches, Bradford pear trees often split around 15 years, making them a risk for falling branches and more prone to disease. 

Although the terms tree trimming and tree pruning are used interchangeably, they are very different types of tree maintenance. Tree trimming involves enhancing the appearance of your tree by removing unruly branches, providing your tree with ample sunlight and nutrients and prevents unsightly overgrowth. 

Tree pruning helps keep your trees disease-free. This process removes unhealthy growths, dead branches, and other unhealthy parts of the tree. It’s more common for deciduous and ornamental trees but not so common for evergreen trees. To determine which method you need, discuss it with a tree trimming specialist.

Many species, especially when well-established, are not fans of transplantation. You’ll need to decide if you want to risk splashing the cash, understanding that transplantation isn’t always successful. Again, this is where hiring a pro is helpful, as they can give you all the essential info you need to ensure your tree stands a fighting chance.

You can use herbicides to prevent roots from growing without killing the tree itself, however they must be used with caution. Systemic herbicides are absorbed by the root and can kill off problematic roots. However, herbicides can sometimes negatively impact nearby plants, so the solution is best used sparingly.

Generally, homeowners do not need permission to cut down a tree on their own private property, but there are several exceptions where a permit may be required. You might need a permit if the tree is particularly large, old, or a protected species, such as a heritage tree. Trees located near public property or power lines can also be subject to special rules. Additionally, many local governments and homeowners associations (HOAs) have regulations controlling which trees can be removed to manage an area's appearance or prevent the spread of invasive species. To avoid hefty fines, it is crucial to check with your local government and HOA to determine if a permit is needed before you begin.
