"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."

Customers say: Quick response

"The workers, a couple of men and a single woman were great, prompt, and timely. I appreciated their kindness, their efficiency, and their great clean-up. The leader, Nathaniel, was so knowledgeable, asked questions, offered positive suggestions, and did not push it further when unneeded. Very kind-hearted and excellent, skillful worker. A trustworthy young man with great potential. I have recommended them to other people, such as with a friend who hired them for an absolutely massive tree on their property, they were very satisfied also!"

"Contacted us and came to our house at mutual time and day agreed upon to look about project. Told us he would send an e-mail later that evening; received estimate that evening as we were told. After considering all other estimates we decided to contract with Essential Tree Care. He came to our house on agreed upon day and after the work was completed we were extremely satisfied. He did an excellent job trimming the trees and shrubs and cleaned everything up immaculately. And, he handled everything in a very professional manner from start to finish of this project. We would highly recommend Essential Tree Care!!! Thanks Rob!!!"

"I had two bids. for a project at my new home. I had called C&K Saturday afternoon. He returned .my call that evening when we arranged to meet on-site. I found Craig to be timely and professional. His bid on the job was half of the other bids. We agreed on the price and the date to start. The work was well done. I have already referred him to a couple of friends and would hire him again"

"Augusto is excellent at what he does. I needed three trees cut, one of them a 40year old tall oak very close to the house. Everything went smoothly, and I couldn’t be more pleased. I recommend him to all my friends."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Yes, cutting a tree's roots can cause it to fall, particularly if major support roots are severed. In extreme cases, trimming roots can affect the tree's structure and stability. Many crucial roots are located just below the soil's surface. If you make severe cuts to roots more than 2 inches in diameter, you risk impacting the tree's water flow and its ability to withstand severe winds or storms. Even cutting roots less than half an inch in diameter under or outside the tree's canopy can cut off its water supply, causing it to decline, die, and eventually topple.

Large, established tree branches won’t grow roots, but if you find a young tree branch that’s less than about a year old, you’ve got a shot. Put it in water or soil as soon as possible for best results. You’ll know the branch is viable if it’s about the thickness of a pencil and has some leaves or needles.

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.

While the fastest way to kill a tree is to simply cut it down, there are several other methods to choose from. You should hire a professional tree removal service to cut down a tree to ensure your personal and property safety. Some slower but effective options include treating or grinding the tree stump or using a basal bark treatment. 

You should prune ornamental trees once every other year after the fruit has matured and begun to drop. You should also prune out dead branches whenever you see them. Pruning too often can stimulate more growth, especially in faster growing varieties like Bradford pears.
