"Great Job! Great Price! The job was completed the second day from the phone call. Stigall explained the tree cuttings and how the tree would grow from now on. Suggestions were given to us to treat the moss on our roof. We were asked if there was any other service they could provide. Hauled away all the cuttings. We are very pleased."

Customers say: Quick response

"Showing up on time and carefully explaining the process of the work involved over two days, Josh Armstrong and his crew removed two huge Douglas Fir trees from our back yard in a difficult position, both trees had to be taken down branch by branch and winched down in very close quarters to our home, flower gardens and fencing and then the trunk chainsawed in chunks and dropped carefully without doing serious damage. The debris was carefully raked up and removed and at all times they were polite and thoughtful and we are grateful for the job done at a very reasonable cost."

"The tree team arrived at the scheduled time and cut down the tree within about 1.5 hours. They were careful to avoid the new gutters and took all the debris away. Price was good. They were friendly, patient, listened carefully to my concerns and have 10 years experience. Great to work with!"

"Rob, Paige, Nate, and Tyler were great. They removed a large tree that was right next to our house and fence. They did a great job and cleaned up when they were done. They even took the time to clean up some debris that had blown on our neighbor's property. I highly recommend them."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Aside from removing dead or diseased branches, you should prune your trees somewhere between every one and three years. Some people—particularly commercial farmers—prune their apple trees yearly to produce higher yields. This is the best way to promote tree health. That said, the average homeowner can get away with hard-pruning their mature apple tree every other year or every three years. 

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.

In most cases, leaving tree roots underground is not a problem if the stump has been removed or ground below the soil. However, some larger roots may decompose, leaving dents in your soil. Additionally, some aggressive trees, including willows, oaks, elms, maples, and poplars may grow back from roots. Large aggressive trees with established root systems are more likely to grow back.

The ideal depth of a tree notch depends on the tree, but it should usually be between 20% and 25% of the tree’s depth. However, if the tree is leaning towards the direction of the notch, it can be cut more shallowly—at as little as 10% of the depth. When the tree is leaning away from the direction it needs to be felled, you can cut deeper, closer to 30%.

In the case that a tree is growing directly on your property line, the cost of maintaining the tree is shared and is the property of both owners in common. In this case, all decisions regarding the maintenance of the tree must be made jointly, and both parties must agree on a course of action. You will need to agree with your neighbor about the cutting of any roots before you carry it out, and your neighbor must also consult with you before doing any trimming. Coming to an agreement with your neighbor about any shared trees ahead of necessary trimming and maintenance will make this process much simpler.
