"We were very pleased with the work and service from WB Castellanos Tree Service. They know what they're doing! They got here when they said they would, went right to work and did what they said they would do. I can see why they have a 5-star rating. The work and service were both excellent and very efficient. They cleaned everything up nicely afterwards also. I would highly recommend this company."

"They came out on a Tuesday morning and gave me a great estimate for the work. Had 4 other tree services make estimates. Salas was the best estimate and I checked their past ratings. Called them Wednesday morning and told them they had the job. They showed up that day about 1:00 P.M. and did the job. Yard looks great and they did great job!"

"Castillo Tree Services was outstanding in their work. They worked with me trimming several large trees exactly as we discussed. Their clean up of all debris was excellent. I really appreciate everything they did and would absolutely hire them again."

"I had 3 troublesome trees. Ricky and his crew were ready to work. They were able to come over and complete the work in about 1 1/2 hours. The crew removed the trees, raked up the debris, and hauled it away. I was amazed at the wonderful work Ricky and his crew did. I would enlist the services of Better Views Tree and Landscaping again. Thank you for a job well-done."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

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.

It’s not as common for Dutch elm disease to affect other types of trees, especially if the surrounding trees aren’t elms. However, it is possible for DED to spread to other trees, particularly in northern states, like Minnesota. In fact, it’s a good idea to use geography to identify wood and determine which types of trees are in your yard. 

Unfortunately, the complex and shallow root system of elm trees makes surrounding elm trees particularly vulnerable to DED. Early discovery is key!

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

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.

Tree roots don’t necessarily break through concrete on their own, but they can certainly take advantage of existing cracks, even very small ones. As roots grow, they expand the cracks, making them larger and leading to serious and costly foundation damage. It’s a good idea to have repairs on any foundation cracks you’re concerned about.
