"These guys work hard, and they work quickly. Their bid far exceeded their competitors. I would hire these guys again if I ever needed to do any tree removal. They pulled out three sixty foot, or higher, trees for us. They did it without damaging fences or property that were very close to the trees. A tricky job well done."

"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.."

"Absolutely wonderful company. We had ten trees pruned ranging from large apple trees to small fruit trees, along with locust and maple trees. ATS was absolutely professional from start to finish. They did it in a day. They communicated with us throughout. They found insect damage (I'm a BYU biology professor and confirmed their diagnoses was spot-on) and I was especially the way they handled it. We could not be more pleased and happy with the very reasonably priced work and the way they left our yard cleaned up of branches and even leaves. We were so pleased and we will use them again for such work. Highly, Highly recommended."

"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."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

There are several signs that may indicate a tree needs to be cut down. These include visible damage to the trunk or branches, a hollow trunk, extensive storm damage, or a significant lean to one side. Other warning signs are pest infestations or the tree growing too close to a house, power lines, or other structures. It is best to hire a professional arborist to inspect the tree, as they can determine if it can be saved or if removal is necessary.

Generally, you should prune around 20% of an apple tree’s growth—and never more than 30%. This means that if you have a severely overgrown tree, it can take a few seasons to prune it back enough to produce the healthiest fruit. 

If you’re dealing with a newly planted or juvenile tree, hold off on pruning beyond the initial shaping. Wait at least a couple of seasons into fruit production since pruning can increase the number of water sprouts and unproductive foliage.

Light-bark trees are most notorious for producing lots of sap when wounded. These varieties include maples, birches, poplars, dogwoods, magnolias, and elms, and they will bleed more when the trees are dormant. That’s why it’s a good idea to prune them in the summer months rather than waiting until winter.

A tree can grow back from its stump, but full regrowth is unlikely (especially for more stubborn conifer trees). Instead, trees are more likely to send up a number of shoots from the dead stump, which will try to develop into primary stems over time. In other words, it will start to look increasingly bushy. The goal of killing and drying out a tree stump is to prevent that from happening, as well as make the stump easier to completely remove.

For safety reasons, leaning trees are best removed by a professional, as they may often tear away from the hinge, causing you to lose control over where the tree falls. If you choose to cut down a tree leaning slightly, avoid cutting off root protrusions before you start. Make your hinge a little longer than usual by cutting it deeper (up to 30% of the diameter) and applying a wedge into the felling cut on the side the tree is leaning. Stand away from the direction the tree leans while making your felling cut.
