"Mark really saved us. We had a very large tree that was splitting and needed to come down before it fell down. He was able to start the work promptly and he had a big crane come to lift the majority of the tree (in sections) over the house. All was done safely. He was busy and the weather did not cooperate well; so, I did have the feelings that he promised a bit more than he could do. He tries very hard to "get to yes" and that does generate a little difference between what he says he can do and what he can do. However, this difference is small. The big picture is that he was able to jump right in (couple of days, prior to storm) and I think he saved us a disaster. The final bill was significantly higher than the bid, but we did have him do somewhat more than was defined in the bid. Our next door neighbor also had him do work, and she was happy with the result. Working with Mark was good. I would use him again. We had urgency in our project so we didn't have time for a lot of comparative bidding. We had one other company come, but they never gave us a final bid - due presumably to the difficulty of getting our very large tree out of our yard, on a hill. (Mark used a huge crane to do the work, "110 ton" type.) We also had power lines near that tree; so, another issue requiring caution. A third company came (a large and well-known company) but they did not arrive to even give us a bid until we had agreed to have Mark do the work (storm coming, tree needed to come down). So, I don't have any great information on the comparative bid situation. Anyway, I would recommend Mark and Acorn Arborists. I would give 5 stars (and cheers) except that there was a little tendency to lead us to expect somewhat more than he could deliver (in terms of time and cost). But again, the weather was not cooperative."

"He does tree trimming or cutting them down, but he was unable to help me. He came out, but did not clarify my need before he came. He gave me a referral, but if you are looking for an arborist, he cannot help."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Your neighbor is not in a good position to know if your trees are truly dead or pose any kind of danger. That’s why hiring an arborist or tree service expert can be such an important part of the process. If the trees are still alive and don’t pose any threat, you’re in the clear (but you may want to document and photograph everything in case events turn sour down the road).

But if a tree is visibly dead and near the property line, you should remove it to be safe. If a dead tree falls on a neighbor’s property, they may have grounds to sue for negligence. If any branches on trees have died, it’s a good idea to cut them back for similar reasons.

You can use a felling ax to chop down a tree by following the same prep and steps as a chainsaw, but be prepared to use some muscle. For trees bigger than 7 inches in diameter, it can take some time and serious strength to cut down a tree using just an ax. 

Licensing requirements for arborists, also known as tree surgeons, vary by state and municipality. Many areas require a license, which often involves specialized education and experience. Even if not mandated, it's wise to hire a licensed professional as they tend to have more experience. Beyond licensing, look for certifications from organizations like the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) or the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA), as this indicates a higher level of expertise. Certified arborists must typically pass a comprehensive exam. Always confirm that the arborist has a business license and is fully insured to protect yourself from liability. Seeking positive recommendations from local homeowners is also a good step in finding a qualified professional.

Leaving a dead tree can expose your other trees to potential diseases, pests, and fungi, and it can also be a hazard. If your tree is dead, then you should hire a tree maintenance service to remove it. Cutting down trees is extremely dangerous, and a professional can ensure no one gets hurt and there is no damage to your property. Tree removal costs between $200 and $2,000 and will prevent future issues and keep you and your property safe.

Early signs that a tree is struggling include premature leaf shedding and lesions or other strange markings. Peeling bark, dead or rotten branches on the ground, and a conspicuous lack of leaves can all be signs that a tree has started to die. By the time a tree starts leaning, it’s usually too far gone to save.
