"The guys were amazing! Respectful, clean, and quick. They scraped out the entire backyard in two days, and laid sod in one. We've had this same company do tree removal and sprinkler work in the past. We'll always use SLC Landscaping."

"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."

"They came in and rescued me from a bad situation caused by a previous tree service. They took down two of the biggest trees in the community for me and were professional and courteous. I would hire them again for sure."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

If you’re buying a small tree with lots of room to grow, expect to pay around $100 to $200 for a potted version. But if you’re buying a larger tree—say one over 10 feet—prices rise, starting in the $500 to $600 range and increasing quickly from there. Keep in mind that paying for professional palm tree planting or transplanting services will increase the cost.

Yes, it’s okay to trim low branches on a tree, also known as limbing up or raising the crown. Essentially, you’ll trim the lower third of the tree (trunk) and leave the upper two-thirds of the tree (crown). Arborists recommend trimming 20% of a tree’s leaves per season for two to three seasons. Trimming low branches allows light to flow through the tree, increasing circulation and making the tree stronger and healthier.

Yes, you should trim the lower branches of your maple tree for safety. Trimming maple trees as they grow helps lift the crown and canopy and trains it to grow straight up. A good rule of thumb is to prune enough branches to leave 6 feet of clearance under the tree.

Unless it’s dead or dangerous, think twice about cutting down a tree in your yard. They’re good for health, well-being, wildlife, and the environment. Plus, local authorities often have regulations prohibiting the removal of trees, especially protected species or individual trees with historical value.

Trees that flower in the spring—like dogwood, cherry, magnolia, and pear—should not be pruned during the winter. These spring-flowering plants grow buds on old growth, so you’ll actually remove what would’ve been gorgeous flowering foliage. Instead, wait to prune until right after they bloom, when the flowers fade.
