"Seem to know what they are doing and do it efficiently and effectively. I was super impressed by the thorough clean-up of our yard after extensive trimming of several trees. And I appreciated the fact that the lead arborist checked with me periodically to be sure I agreed with their approach."

"I highly recommend Daniel for any construction needs. He tackled a variety of projects for me, including drywall, painting, demolition, flooring, windows, and roofing, with consistent professionalism and skill. His strong work ethic, punctuality, and attention to detail were evident in every aspect of their work, from the smooth drywall finish to the perfectly installed windows and roof. I was impressed with their dedication and the quality of the results, and I will definitely hire them again."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

No. Most of the time, suckers are only a sign that the tree is experiencing stress. However, they can also be the canary in the coal mine, letting you know that something else is stressing your tree. If you have lots of suckers on your tree, calling in an arborist or a tree care expert is always a good call to determine the cause and develop a solution that de-stresses your tree.

Yes, the same rules discussed above apply to your neighbor: They can trim one of your trees as long as they’re only cutting the portion that extends into their property. Your neighbor is not allowed to access your property without permission, nor can they cut past the property line. 

The recovery time for pruning depends on how much you prune, the species of tree, and how well you care for it afterward. All trees grow new wood and often sprout additional branches after pruning. Ideally, trees should recover from normal pruning after one or two years. Heavy pruning or slow-growing trees may take several years to fully recover.

There are many signs that a tree is diseased or dying, and if you suspect that’s the case, you should call an arborist immediately. You might notice rot or fungus on the trunk or that the tree is beginning to lean to one side. Brittle branches or signs of root damage are other indicators that a tree is in trouble. If the tree is dying, it might be time to cut the tree down so it doesn’t fall.

Local tree removal prices range from $200 to $2,000 overall, but vary depending on:

  • Local cost of labor and supplies

  • Accessibility of the tree

  • Local laws regarding who is allowed to remove the tree

  • The species of the tree (softer woods are often easier to remove)

  • Local seasonal discounts for the off-season
