"I am sooo pleased with Jason & helper's work. Friendly, kind, professional guys who did an excellent job of cutting down 7 huge gum trees in my back yard in the flower beds, right near the deck, and were very mindful not to destroy my plants or anything else. I highly recommend them and am glad I found them."

"This team did an outstanding job cleaning up the tangled mess of fallen trees and vines from a storm a few months earlier. Not only were they able to start a day early, but they completed it the same day. My request was to remove 3 fallen trees (one was a very large white oak), but they volunteered to clean up all of the trees and vines along the road! I was duly impressed with their efficiency, professionalism, and demeanor! I have worked with several different tree service professionals in the area, but this team did the best job, by far, of any of the others and exceeded my expectations! I highly recommend them!"

"I was genuinely very impressed with the work done by Humberto Tree Service. Not only was he right on time for our scheduled appointment, but he also listened carefully and understood my vision. The work itself was completed very efficiently, and he made sure to leave the area clean and tidy afterwards. He really worked around my incredibly busy schedule, and honestly, I couldn't believe that they were able to take down five trees, each 40 feet tall, All in under eight hours. Absolutely amazing work, and I will definitely be hiring Humberto Tree Service again."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

If tree branches cross well into your property line, in many cases, these branches become part of your property, and you can trim them up until your neighbor’s property line. However, this issue will vary based on local ordinances, so you should do your research before making any decisions. Better yet, speak with your neighbor about how to handle any tree issues. 

If you don’t mind the branches, you can leave them be, but if they’re becoming a hazard, it’s definitely worth having a conversation.

Yes, burning wood with Dutch elm disease is a safer way to dispose of it than, say, tossing it in with the rest of your yard waste, which could potentially allow it to spread to healthy trees. But it’s always a good idea to check with your local government to make sure you’re complying with any ordinances about removing diseased trees as well as burning brush piles.

Since overwatering can harm mature trees just as much as a lack of water, it’s important to know the signs of an overwatered tree. If your tree’s leaves are yellowing, wilting, or dropping leaves, it’s likely that you’re overwatering. Other common signs include rotting, fungi, soggy soil, soft or peeling bark, falling leaves, and brittle roots. 

If you realize that you’ve been overwatering your mature tree, stop watering and give the soil time to dry out. Then moving forward, increase time between watering sessions. 

Absolutely. These steps are significantly easier, too, especially when it comes to preserving the root ball and moving the palm tree. However, you will want to make sure the tree has plenty of fertilizer to establish itself and start growing. Supports may also be more important, as it can take extra time for a potted palm to spread out its roots. If you are transferring a palm to another pot, you’ll want to move up a size or two to a larger pot. Make sure the pot has excellent drainage to keep the palm from getting waterlogged.

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.
