"I had a medium-sized tree in the backyard that was dying because of the hard pan we have, it couldn’t get the roots down deep enough, and I needed to have it taken out. The two gentlemen that showed up to take care of the tree were friendly, professional, and they got the work done quickly, and the mess cleaned up. I was very impressed with their work, they worked seamlessly together. The price worked well for us. If you have trees that need to be removed, I would not hesitate to recommend, The Arborist, they do excellent work."

"I called several companies and it either went to voicemail, or they never answered. I called Apex and Phil answered the phone. I told him I had a huge pile of brush that needed to be removed. He came out right away and gave me an estimate. He told me he could possibly work it in in the next week or so. Turned out, he came the next day and removed the brush. His assistant was on the ground raking up the pieces that the grapple left behind. The service was excellent, Phil is very personable, and the price was very reasonable."

"Had a tall tree with some specific instructions. They were on time and fast at a reasonable price. Only complaint is, I had a specific size I was going to cut the wood, they decided to help and cut the pieces in my wood pile for me so they're not the uniform sizes I was going to cut them."

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.

Hiring an arborist costs around $900 on average, with prices ranging from $250 to $2,500 or more. Some arborists charge an hourly rate, typically between $100 and $350 per hour. The final cost depends on several factors, including the type of work, the number of trees, accessibility, and whether you hire an independent arborist or a larger tree service company. When hiring, you should also consider their experience and insurance coverage.

Below are some estimated costs for common arborist jobs:

  • Small tree removal: $300 to $500

  • Large tree removal: $500 to $2,000 or more

  • Tree health assessment: $150

  • Trimming a small tree: $75 to $200

  • Trimming a large tree: $150 to $400

  • Dealing with invasive species: $150 to $1,000 or more

On grafted trees, tree suckers will grow from the root stock, not the branches grafted onto it. Therefore, the leaves and characteristics of the suckers aren’t the same as the tree because they are different varieties. Root stock has more hardiness, strength, or drought tolerance than its grafted limbs, so if the suckers are from fruit or flowers, it might be different than the main part of your tree.

The best tool to cut trees is a chain saw. You can adjust your chain saw to the correct size based on the size of the branches, offering you the fastest and cleanest cut for medium- to large-sized trees. Depending on the type of chainsaw you use, you can cut through larger trees than you would with a more manual tool like an ax.

The best tools for tree removal include a chainsaw for large trees, an ax for notching and cutting down small trees, and a wedge to help control the direction a tree falls in. A hatchet can be useful for very small trees, but won’t be effective for medium to large trees.
