"I contacted 2 highly-reviewed and rated companies, American Tree Care being one of them. Ammon, the owner is knowledgeable, personable, and truly cares that you walk away having had a good experience. Price wise, they were a tad bit lower than the other well-rated company (Both were fair and reasonable in my opinion). He was able to work with me on schedule and made sure that the surrounding trees were protected while his crew was working. Hard working crew who were knowledgeable, and didn't waste any time getting to work. Excellent experience and highly recommend. I will definitely be calling Ammon at American Tree Care first"

"Mark was fantastic. He came out for a quote and provided a very competitive bid, as well as some advice on options regarding whether to keep certain trees or not. The service was scheduled quickly. Mark and his crew came on time, and performed the work as agreed upon. I was not able to be there during the job, but it was not an issue. Mark told me to just check afterwards that what was promised, was done - and then to call back to handle the payment. Everything went smoothly, and I would highly recommend Bushman Tree Service."

The crew was professional and polite, they worked quickly and cleaned up every single branch without disturbing any existing landscaping. I will definitely be recommending them to my friends and family."

"Dan came out to give us an assessment about the health of an old cedar we have next to our home. I was concerned that he wouldn't be "straight" and would try to upsell services. However, I really wanted an experienced arborist to let me know why parts of my tree appear to be dying. Dan checked our tree out thoroughly and gave us his opinion that the tree is stressed but will most likely bounce back over the next several months. He then went on to look at a number of other trees on our property -- ALL AT NO CHARGE TO US -- and without trying to sell us any services. I have complete confidence in Dan and Eastside Tree Works. They came to take care of our landscape needs and didn't attempt to profit off of our ignorance. I will not hesitate to use them in the future!"

"They did a great job! When Alex came out to look at the trees, he noted one more that was not an issue yet, but would be in time. I had him include that in the bid, and when they were done, I was impressed!. 3 trees in 1 day, plus a huge Holly bush cleaned out. Wood nicely piled for use/gift/burning. They treated the stumps so they don't grow back. I didn't need the take-out. Note: If you need them to haul it off, let them know in advance. However, if you have a fireplace, enjoy!"

"Northwestern Tree Surgeons did outstanding work removing three large trees from my front yard. The crew was professional, skilled, and worked efficiently from start to finish. They handled everything safely and with great attention to detail, and the cleanup afterward was excellent. It’s clear they take pride in their work and know exactly what they’re doing. The job was done smoothly and without issues, and the results exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Northwestern Tree Surgeons to anyone needing professional tree removal services."

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

Completely topping a plum tree is a risky business. Cut too much, and you’ll kill your tree. That said, you do need to trim the top of your tree to encourage bushy growth, maintain your tree’s vase shape, and limit size. 

A plum tree's central leader (or trunk) should never extend more than 3 feet above the highest branch. When you first plant your tree, cut the central leader so it’s 2 to 3 feet tall. As it grows, cut it back 12 to 20 inches until it reaches its desired height. Never prune more than one-third of the new growth.

Pruning is an effective way to prevent a diseased branch from infecting the rest of the tree. If the infection isn’t caught early enough and the pathogen has spread to the trunk or the majority of the branches though, it is too late to prune off the affected areas and you’ll likely need to remove the tree.

Not every arborist climbs trees, but most will do so if that’s the best method for assessing or treating a tree. Arborists have a variety of tree climbing gear and safety equipment to choose from when climbing trees. Consult your local arborist about their tree-climbing plan if your service requires that type of task.

Yes, it is essential to confirm that any tree service company you hire is properly insured before they begin work. Tree removal, trimming, and pruning are dangerous jobs, and proper insurance protects you, your home, and the company from liability in case of accidents or damage. Look for a company that carries both general liability and workers’ compensation insurance, and do not hire one that cannot provide proof of coverage. When browsing for professionals, you can look for indicators like an “Angi Approved” badge, which signifies that the business meets standards like holding applicable licenses and passing a background check. Keep in mind that a license is a legal requirement to operate, while certifications are typically voluntary.

Generally, homeowners do not need permission to cut down a tree on their own private property, but there are several exceptions where a permit may be required. You might need a permit if the tree is particularly large, old, or a protected species, such as a heritage tree. Trees located near public property or power lines can also be subject to special rules. Additionally, many local governments and homeowners associations (HOAs) have regulations controlling which trees can be removed to manage an area's appearance or prevent the spread of invasive species. To avoid hefty fines, it is crucial to check with your local government and HOA to determine if a permit is needed before you begin.
