"They arrived on time with plenty of workers for the job. We were given an extremely fair price to remove 2 tall large-width trees & 2 tall smaller-width trees. Everything was done safely, even with the wind blowing. We will definitely be using them again later this year. We highly recommend them. Check them out!"

"Moises and team carried out great work pruning some large trees and removing some dead trees from our yard. Provided a timely and competitive quote and left the site extremely clean and tidy. Our neighbors saw the work and immediately hired Moises to do similar work in their yard. Strongly recommended."

"The owner was very knowledgeable and straight forward with his recommendations. He was quick to understand just what I wanted done. He and one worker worked fast and tirelessly to clear an untidy and increasingly unmanageable growing tangle of bushes/small trees from one side of the yard and several piles of limbs that I had trimmed off hedges over the past two years or that had fallen from one of our many trees. They completed the work in a short time and cleaned up all the debris, leaving the portions of the yard they worked on looking like new."

"This company responded right away to my request to have a substantial number of trees trimmed back including a large white oak. They worked with me to decide exactly what and where to trim including scaling practically to the very top of the white oak. All this for a very reasonable price. Mauro has an excellent eye as to where to cut. I trusted his judgement. They did a great job."

"We have used JL Tree Service twice to help us remove two large Bradford pears, one dying oak tree and do health pruning on our other trees that we want to keep in the yard and make sure they stay healthy. We requested a certified arborist and had a great experience with William. We left oak tree snug as a wildlife habitat and now we can watch all the woodpeckers going up and down the snug. They were very professional and efficient (we had 2 different teams) and our trees look so much better as a result and we are not worried during every storm anymore. We did all our work in February. They offer winter discount. I would highly recommend this company. We are planning to use them again."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

If you ever want to see the literal fruits of your labor, you’ll need to prune your peach trees. Without pruning, the trees may not grow or bear fruit since the nutrients will be divided among too many offshoots to provide any with enough energy to produce the peaches. Plus, if parts of the peach tree become diseased or pest-ridden, pruning can nip those problems in the bud.

Maple trees start the growing season by developing small groups of red flowers where the tree's fruit, the samaras, will appear in the coming weeks. Later in spring, the samaras, which many call whirlybirds or similar names, develop into single-winged seed carriers that spin when falling or drifting in the wind. 

Ideally, you should wait to prune until trees have gone dormant in late fall to early winter. The worst times to prune trees are early fall and late summer, as pruning them so close to dormancy makes it difficult for the tree recover before it goes dormant for the season.

Yes, it’s okay to trim low branches on a tree, also known as limbing up or raising the crown. Essentially, you’ll trim the lower third of the tree (trunk) and leave the upper two-thirds of the tree (crown). Arborists recommend trimming 20% of a tree’s leaves per season for two to three seasons. Trimming low branches allows light to flow through the tree, increasing circulation and making the tree stronger and healthier.

Unfortunately, palm tree stumps are one of the most difficult types to remove due to how their roots grow. Unlike other trees, palm tree roots grow horizontally and vertically. Palm tree roots grow as deep as three feet into the ground, although soil and growing conditions could mean they go as far as 50 inches into the earth. 

If you want to be able to repurpose the grass in the area where you removed a stump later, you’ll have to dig quite deep—and perhaps wide—to trim away all the roots.
