"Ya Tree and Lawn Services was AMAZING! The entire crew was friendly and professional. The skill and expertise and they took down our trees was remarkable. In VERY close quarters they did not hit anything. They cleaned up thoroughly and immediately in our yard and the neighbors' yards where some debris fell (but very little). We recommended them to that neighbor already for some work she is thinking of. GREAT JOB by Ya Tree and Lawn Services!"

"LTE was very professional in their attitude and in completing the contracted job. They were quick efficient and cleaned up after themselves. If you didn't miss the tree - you wouldn't know they had been there. I would hire them again if the occasion arose."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Trees are beneficial to the environment and wildlife. If you have an old tree, but it’s healthy, it may be best to avoid cutting it down. However, if it’s showing signs of bug infestation, disease, or is potentially hazardous, then you should contact a tree removal company to cut it down. 

If you are unsure whether you should have it removed or not, then speak with an arborist to determine what is best.

Not every arborist climbs trees, but most will do so if that’s the best method for assessing or treating a tree. Arborists have a variety of tree climbing gear and safety equipment to choose from when climbing trees. Consult your local arborist about their tree-climbing plan if your service requires that type of task.

For trimming trees, your best tool is a pair of pruning shears or loppers. Both options work best for branches that are under 3 inches in diameter. Trimming trees with a larger diameter may require a robust tool like a small chainsaw or a handsaw, so take into account your tree’s diameter when deciding between tools.

It’s possible to transplant trees as tall as 50 feet when an experienced tree planting service uses the right equipment. However, a tree with a trunk larger than two or three inches in diameter needs to be handled by a professional in order to yield successful transplanting results. Consulting a tree planting professional is the best way to tell if your large tree can be safely transplanted.

Some trees will bounce back just fine, and others will struggle and possibly die. Evergreens, for instance, have a very difficult time recovering after droughts and usually die after periods of extreme dryness. Usually, you’ll have to just wait and see—if the drought occurs in wintertime, it’s possible that your tree will recover during the gentler springtime.
