"David and team were great and easy to work with. My project was not simple because access was not easy. They asked me what I wanted and I gave them an idea but could not be specific. They took over from there. The 2 trees are again beautiful. The crew worked hard and quickly. Cleanup was really good. Yup, David is my tree guy now. Others might be equal, but his service was top level. Great Job."

"He and his crew were very professional. They had to climb a 35 foot tree in a very compromising place in my yard. The pine tree dropped a ton of needles and they cleaned it all up. I was so happy with DO IT RIGHT. I would definitely hire them again and refer them to neighbors and friends.."

"Timp Trees had the best pricing for their service by far! They were able to get us on the schedule within a week and finished the project in 2 days, cleaning up their mess before they left. Would HIGHLY recommend. Casey and his crew were amazing to work with for our tree removal and stump grinding. They even got rid of a tree house for us that included some pretty stubborn concrete feet buried in the ground. They really went above and beyond."

"Bowen was very professional in removing a tree and grinding the stump. It was in a difficult to reach spot between a fence and shed. The tree was removed without any damage to either. The area was cleaned up after the work was done. Bowen was also very personable and friendly. I would definitely recommend."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Completely topping a plum tree is a risky business. Cut too much, and you’ll kill your tree. That said, you do need to trim the top of your tree to encourage bushy growth, maintain your tree’s vase shape, and limit size. 

A plum tree's central leader (or trunk) should never extend more than 3 feet above the highest branch. When you first plant your tree, cut the central leader so it’s 2 to 3 feet tall. As it grows, cut it back 12 to 20 inches until it reaches its desired height. Never prune more than one-third of the new growth.

Most plum trees are pruned into a vase or open wine glass shape. They’ll have a shorter central leader (the trunk) that supports three to four main branches. Of course, this isn't always the case. If you have a European plum tree, you can grow it in a pyramid shape. Let the central leader extend the length of the tree and prune smaller branches to create the pyramid.

Depending on the severity of the damage, a tree might continue healing for years after a split or a break. Saplings can usually bounce back in the spring in one or two seasons, but larger trees might take a few years to regain their former strength. If your tree is showing strong growth and is not dropping limbs, you can consider it healed after the first two seasons.

Since each tree is different, it’s impossible to say how long a dead tree can remain on your property. While it could be days, months, or even years, it’s highly likely that, at some point, the tree will fall. In the meantime, dying or dead trees can become a haven for pests, so it’s best to have them removed sooner rather than later.

Professionals ensure safety, prevent property damage, and handle debris efficiently.
