"I should have called The Tree Brothers years ago. I thought the job (taking down 9 trees near buildings on the property) would be complicated and leave a mess. When Adam came to offer a very reasonable quote he assured me that he had the tools and knowledge to get the job done. He was professional from quote to finishing the job. I’ll be recommending The Tree Brothers to my neighbors and will reach out for the next phase later this year."

"Ryan was incredibly helpful and did a wonderful job pruning and clearing out some of my broken branches and dead trees. I would absolutely hire from here again. Very happy with my service!"
Preparing to safely fall the whole tree in order to cut logs for milling.
Approaching the tree with the tractor and grapple.  Lawn is protected from tractor tire damage.
The old pine could no longer fend off the beetles.  2021 was a hot, dry summer and unfortunately many trees were lost.  The fall zone for this large tree was tight, but with some careful preparations and precautions, the tree was successfully felled with no collateral damage.

"Sure Cut Tree Service was excellent in every way. I received a fair bid, and the project started the next day. Communication by phone, text, and email was timely and appropriate. The work was completed on time and exceeded my expectations. As part of the project, Sure Cut removed three mature ponderosa pines close to power lines and my neighbor's home. My neighbor was also pleased with their professionalism and friendliness! Well done, Nick."

"Adam and his crew do amazing work. I was able to get a project quote promptly and communication from the start was great. My project quote was competitively priced and Adam was able to offer insight and options to meet my needs. They took down several trees and brush and I was very happy with the end product, clean up, and care they showed my lawn. I plan to utilize them for every tree service I need in the future."

"Curtis and his team came to my place early in the day to take out two trees that were right next to my vinyl fence. They did a great job taking them down cleaning up and taking off all the debris and wood rounds. Very satisfied would use them again. Tony M."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally, if your neighbor’s tree hangs over your yard, you can legally trim overhanging branches. Keep in mind that you cannot cross your property line to cut the trees, and if you damage the tree by trimming it, your neighbor could sue you. Depending on the type of tree and value, this could mean dishing out two to three times the value of the tree.

It’s worth noting that the specifics of this type of tree maintenance and the guidelines around it may vary by location. Do your research and, most importantly, consult with your neighbor.

Whether tree roots will continue to grow after a tree has been cut down depends on the species. Some tree roots will eventually die because they can no longer get nutrients through photosynthesis. However, other species that reproduce through root sprouts can continue to grow and produce new sprouts for seven years or more. For example, the roots of elms, ficus, and willows tend to regrow aggressively, while the roots of pines, oaks, and maples will typically die. To determine if a root system is still active, look for new sprouts on the old trunk, stump, or any exposed roots.

The depth of tree roots depends on the species. Trees like oaks and maples can have root systems that grow down 20 feet or more. However, trees that grow in shallow soils will have roots that go only a few feet down. Research how your tree species grows in your climate area to estimate root depth.

A tree can split because of high winds, a change in temperature, or from an infestation or tree disease. All of these factors can overlap, making a single cause difficult to pinpoint. While winter storms are some of the most common causes for a tree to split, it can also happen because of termites or rot.

Dutch elm disease can’t harm humans. In fact, according to Cal Fire, bark beetles aren’t even typically dangerous to trees unless that tree is already weakened. The problem comes when Dutch elm disease kills a tree. That tree is more at risk of falling and catching fire, which can pose a serious threat.
