"The Tree Care Service is hands-down the best in the business! From the moment I called and described the work I needed, Ulises was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly efficient. He arrived promptly, assessed the situation, and his team jumped into action without hesitation. They tackled a massive job—removing two large mature trees, 15–20 smaller ones, hauling away 15 bags of debris, and grinding down all the stumps and roots. I was bracing for a bill well over $5,000, but the final cost was significantly less! The customer service was OUTSTANDING, and the quality of work was top-notch. Ulises and his crew exceeded every expectation. If you need anything tree-related, do yourself a favor and call The Tree Care Service. Highly recommended!"

"Green Mountain Landscaping did extensive work in all areas of landscaping at our new home. Retaining walls, walkway entrance, multiple shrub/tree planting, grass seeding and installation of a major french drain were all a part of the big project. My wife and I feel it was a blessing that we found this company. The owner was especially a man of his word which meant alot to us as other companies in the building if our home were not nearly as reliable and honest. We would recommend this company to anyone and can thank the owner for transforming the area around our home from a dirt eye sore to a beautiful landscape."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

The best time to cut down a tree is during its dormant season, typically in winter or early spring, after all the leaves have fallen. Removing a tree during this period is advantageous for several reasons. Frozen ground helps secure the tree stump, protects the surrounding landscape from damage, and reduces the risk of the tree falling in an unintended direction. With the leaves gone, there is less risk of the tree's foliage getting tangled with other trees. Additionally, since this is often a slower season for tree services, you may be able to hire a professional at a lower rate. This dormant period is also the best time for tree trimming.

Unfortunately, most of the time you’re out of luck if a neighbor’s tree blocks your view. You don’t have a right to a view, so if you have a tree that’s near the property line but on your neighbor’s property, you can’t cut it to be able to take in a majestic mountain or a beautiful sunrise. In some communities, however, there are ordinances protecting scenic views. Checking into your local laws can help you determine your rights in this situation.

You should not trim an oak tree in the summer. Oak trees are especially susceptible to disease, and open tree wounds are an invitation for beetles that carry tree-killing fungus. If there’s no risk that the oak tree will do damage to your property or hurt someone, it’s best to save the trimming for fall or winter. If you can, seal the wound with latex to prevent fungus from getting inside.

Palm tree stumps can take as long as seven to ten years to rot naturally. Whereas some tree stumps rot within a year, palm trees tend to last longer due to their deep root networks. Chemical rotting (described above) can help speed the process up so your palm tree stumps rot in under two months.

Pruning can impact cold hardiness—but it’s less about the exact temperature and more about temperature variation. Generally, you don’t want to prune trees when there’s a risk of temperatures suddenly dropping from 50 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit to 0 degrees Fahrenheit or below. A tree is most sensitive until 48 hours after it’s pruned.
