"Yes, both jobs were completed in a very proficient manner. Job #1 at my residence was very serious trimming on my 22 foot arborvitae tree. The had to use a Nifty Lift machine to access all around the arborvitae’s circumference. Job #2 was selective trimming a large deciduous tree. R&A workers cleared “ all” of the debris and dumped all of it into the wood chipper."

"I just had the most positive experience with Jason and his crew from First Class Landscaping, Inc. In my opinion, they are "First Class". They removed four very large trees, two of which were in difficult areas, cleaned up as they went along and got the job done in two days. Cost was reasonable and the crew were all so polite and courteous. I would not hesitate to use them again or to recommend them to anyone. Thanks Jason!"

"Quick work. Cleared my yard of tree and bush debris plus cut a couple of invasive trees.. price was very reasonable. Best of all they were able to complete the job today. After I cleared a bunch of yard waste, I decided that I did not have the energy to cut pieces to size and bag the stuff. I got a quick phone call and within a couple o hours, my yard was respectful again. Definitely recommend."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

The costs vary from $250 to $5,000 per tree, depending on the size, complexity of the trimming, and labor.

Consumers typically do not need to worry about the cost of tree insurance, as professional tree service companies pay for their own coverage. For a tree service business, an average U.S. policy covering about $1 million in general liability costs roughly $40 a month or $500 a year. More extensive policies, providing between $500,000 to $2 million in coverage, can cost between $3,000 and $6,000 annually, depending on the company's size and scope of work. Tree service professionals should speak with an insurance company to determine the right plan for their business.

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.

The lifespan of a bird's nest depends on the species. The building process can take from two days to three weeks. Once built, the nesting period for baby birds can last from two to ten weeks before they leave the nest. While most young birds are ready in two to six weeks, some predatory species may need up to two and a half months. Some species nest four to five times per year, so a nest could remain in use for several months. For specific information about a particular nest's longevity, it is best to consult a wildlife professional.

If executed correctly your tree should survive after being transplanted to a new spot. However, effective transplanting requires six months, careful root pruning, safe transport to the new location, and replanting in prime soil conditions. You’ll also need an appropriately sized root ball for a complete tree transplant. A good rule of thumb is that, for every inch in diameter, your tree’s root ball needs to be around 11 inches. So a tree with a diameter of six inches needs a root ball of approximately 66 inches.
