"Josh and Zach are fantastic! They can do anything! Building on heavily treed undeveloped acreage. The built the construction road, dug foundation pits, cleared brush, thinned trees, dug trenches for water lines and electric conduit. They work directly with other contractors and county to get specs, handle inspections, ask questions. Very professional, highest quality work, reasonably priced. I have never worked with a better contractor!"

"Jon was very professional. He was on time for a consultation and again for actual work. He very flexible taking on additional work I requested while on site. He sought to save a tree that was viable with careful pruning rather than simply cutting it down as others had proposed. His work was skillful and accomplished our goal. In the end his bill came in within his bid which we appreciated. I highly recommend Jon and plan to call on him for future tree removal services!"

"They did a great job taking down my huge tree. I asked for the extra service of mulching the limbs and splitting all the wood into firewood and stacking. It looked like a very hard job but they saw it through and stuck it out to the end. All done in a day."

"Tony & his extremely talented crew took down 5 large forest trees as if they were tiny trees.. amazing job by Tony & crew. Then his crew put down(with existing bricks) a new revived brick patio. Fantastic job and the hardest working crew. I strongly recommend Tony and his crew for any type of project you might have. Neat and respectful crew. Thank you for this great work done, it was appreciated. Debi and John Olalla."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally speaking, you’ll want to avoid flush cuts, which are cuts made as extremely close to the trunk or main branch. These cuts can weaken your tree, lower its natural defense mechanisms, and even cause decay. You’ll also want to avoid tree topping, which is the total removal of the leader and upper main branches of a tree. 

Most pros will advise against either of these methods, which is why hiring a pro is often the best choice when it comes to tree trimming.

Grinding down a tree helps reduce the risk of foundation damage and pests and even helps your home’s curb appeal. Stumps can also be a safety hazard. If grass grows above the stump and someone else mows your yard, they may be in for a rude awakening when they accidentally hit it.

It depends on the problem, the affected part of the tree, the risk of the pathogen spreading, and the overall health of your tree. Many diseases, fungal infections, and insect infestations can be successfully treated, especially if the issue is only in a few branches. However, if a disease is too widespread, too severe, too easily spread, or in the roots, the tree will likely need to be removed.

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.

Common signs that a tree is rotting include dead branches, a leaning trunk, peeling or cracked bark, leaf discoloration, and the presence of fungi. If you notice any of these signs, it’s best to hire an arborist near you to inspect your tree and determine if it can be saved or if it needs to come down.
