"Luis Matute and his tree service Matute’s Tree Service cut down 5 trees from my property. They removed all the debris and piled the cut wood in a pile for me. They were quick and professional. I highly recommend them."

"Jorge and his crew did a fantastic job cutting large dead trees in my yard. He was very comprehensive and is very knowledgeable about everything tree related. Best part was his cost effectiveness compared to other quotes I received. I will definitely be working with them in future needs and recommend them to others needing his services!"

"If I could give this company a 5++ I would for sure. Mullins Tree Service came in with, by far, the best price for grinding several stumps and trimming two trees. In addition, Grant, the owner, is one of the friendliest, most knowledgeable, and honest person Iâ ve ever worked with. Will definitely hire his company in the future without hesitation. If you want a truly quality tree service, call Mullins Tree and Landscaping."

"Humberto Tree Service did an amazing job removing several trees from our yard. The quote offered was very reasonable and we were able to book their services a few days after our initial meeting. We had 6 trees removed and they completed this within a few hours. Not only were they quick and efficient with the tree removal, but they left our yard and gravel driveway looking spectacular. I would absolutely recommend Humberto Tree Services to anyone looking to have trees removed from their yard."

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

Not all leaning trees are dangerous, but they can be a hazard as gravity may eventually cause them to fall. A key factor is whether the lean is new or has been present for a long time. Trees that have grown with a lean for years are not typically an immediate danger, but a sudden lean is a cause for concern as it often indicates weakening roots. If a tree is leaning more than 15% from vertical, you should consider having it straightened or transplanted. To be safe, it's always best to hire a professional arborist to inspect any leaning tree to assess the risk and avoid potential accidents.

Aim to have your trees inspected and pruned in early spring. At this point in the year, tree service professionals can note where there is old growth from winter and cut that back to encourage new growth for the rest of the year. Pruning at the wrong time of the year could make your trees prone to diseases.

Deciduous shade trees (the type of trees whose leaves fall off in autumn) need to be pruned in late winter—between February and March. That’s because it’s easier to find and remove sick or dead branches when no leaves are present. And wounds close and heal faster in colder temperatures so pruning them at this time also makes them less prone to infection.

You can use a chainsaw, but it won’t remove the entire stump or root ball and is not a recommended method. It takes quite a bit of physical work to achieve and will likely dull or ruin your chainsaw. Instead, consider using salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, stump grinding, or burning to kill a tree stump. These methods allow you to kill a stump using minimal machinery and physical exertion.

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.
