"Gonzalez Landscaping & Tree Care did an outstanding job and completed the job quickly. Recieved quote on Thursday and they worked Friday through Sunday to complete the job. I also had them powerwash the house. I'll use them again in the future."

"The team worked carefully and diligently to remove the oak, taking about 6 hours. Communication was excellent with the arborist who did the estimate as well as the crew upon arrival, during the job, and at completion. They left my yard and patio clean and their impact was minimal despite the bulk of the tree."

"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."

"This team was knowledgeable, polite, punctual, efficient and very easy to work with! They carefully climbed and limbed up 8 giant trees without touching any of our shrubs , garden or creek below by lowering each branch with ropes. And they cleaned up our property beautifully before leaving. I would recommend this company above all of the other tree services I have hired."

"ANA and her team at A&M Tree and Landscape Service Inc. are excellent! They did a superb job trimming our large trees, cutting back years of overgrown bushes and weeds, and hauled away all debris the same day. We highly recommend!!"

"I've been using JL for 15 years and have had them do multiple tree removals, prunings of the trees overhanging the house and a couple of stump grindings. Steven (the arborist that covers my area) always does a walk through the property and I'm usually the one who wants more work done than he thinks is required so they definitely don't try to get you to do unnecessary work. I have been happy with all of the work and they always leave the work area clean afterwards."

"They did a great job cutting down two 60-foot tall oak trees on a very cold February day. They showed up on time, left the yard extremely clean, stacked some of the wood for a fire pit, and trimmed a few more trees (extra feeâ very reasonable). Price was very reasonable and the service quality was great. Highly recommend them!"

"Destiny was one of 4 different tree services that provided assessments and quotes for the work needed. We based our decision of which service to go with on schedule, cost and performance reviews. Nancy was the scheduler that sent Marvin to do the assessment. Marvin was professional, friendly and fully explained his assessment as to what and why was needed. Two days after we called Nancy Marvin and his crew arrived. 4 hours later all of the trees were trimmed, the branches and leaves were “chips” and the yard was fully cleaned. Marvin and his team were outstanding and watching them work was like watching Circus Olay. We will use Destiny again when we need additional arborist work."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Yes, the same rules discussed above apply to your neighbor: They can trim one of your trees as long as they’re only cutting the portion that extends into their property. Your neighbor is not allowed to access your property without permission, nor can they cut past the property line. 

You should plant trees at least 15 to 20 feet away from your house, and more if the tree will grow large and spread its limbs. Trees pose several dangers to houses when planted too close. They can litter the roof with leaves and branches, create fire hazards, make a ladder for larger pests, and even damage the foundation as their roots grow.

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.

Using vinegar to kill tree roots is just one of the clever ways to use vinegar around the house. The method works best when you apply vinegar as directly to the root system as possible. For example, if the old tree roots and stump are currently exposed, drill holes in the tops of the roots and pour undiluted white vinegar into the holes to soak into the plant. Remember that vinegar can kill the surrounding grass and plants should it pour over the edge.

Bradford pear trees bloom in early spring with small white flowers. They typically flower for at least two weeks. In bloom, these trees often emit a foul-smelling odor that’s often compared to rotting fish. Bradford pear trees will sometimes bloom in the fall due to drought or other stress-inducing conditions.
