"I worked directly with the owner, Steve Lambert. Steve is a Board-Certified Master Arborist and he knew the names of all 10 trees and made recommendations regarding the right amount of pruning and shaping that would work best for me as well as for the trees. He arrived promptly, I am very happy with his work, and the clean-up afterwards was so thorough I wouldn't have known he had come by except I immediately saw that I had my view back! His pricing was very fair for the amount of work. I will certainly hire Steve again."

"Mark at NW Arbor Care followed up promptly and came out to see my project which involved trimming several very large branches from 80 feet maples. He gave me a bid on the spot which seemed very reasonable. He clearly trusted his team to work with me, and was he ever right! They were great! Four people who knew what they were doing and worked together like clockwork. They were pleasant, good communicators, knowledgable, and really good at what they did. I'm so happy with the work which exceeded my expectations. They were flexible and thorough. They cleaned up so it looked better than when they came. I will hire them for any tree trimming needs in the future."

"The Altaview Tree Service team was so great to work with! Brenda stayed on top of everything and kept in contact with me through the permit process, which isn't always the easiest. Once the team was here, they were timely, super efficient, and extremely careful and respectful of the surroundings (including my neighbors yard!). I relied on their expertise regarding the trimming and my maple tree looks so healthy and well taken care of. I'm so happy with this service and can't wait to hire them again for other projects. I will certainly be referring them to friends and neighbors!"

"Ammon and the guys at American Tree Care showed up early and did a great job! Care was taken not to damage property and everything was cleaned up and put back at the end of the job. Even cut down blackberry bushes to access the trees. And came in just under estimate. Everything was explained to me and Ammon had plenty of advice and was willing to share it. Great Job! Very happy. 
And leave a message, he will call you back.

"I highly recommend Suave and Sons Tree Work for anyone in need of tree services. They did an excellent job removing a large, difficult tree that was located VERY close to our house. The process was smooth and efficient, and the crew was clean and professional. The owner, Joel, was a pleasure to work with. He was easy to contact and was onsite working along the guys during the job. All of the guys were also very friendly and respectful. Overall, we had a great experience with this company and would not hesitate to use them again in the future."

"After coming out to do an assessment of the yard and work that needed doing I booked this company to come out one afternoon. I've lived in the house less than a year, and it had been let go a bit. I had several large pines that needed trimming and interior bulk reduction, as well as underhang reduced to make it safer for passersby. I had another large tree that needed major trimming and tidying. I had another huge shrub that was dying and blocking a pretty maple removed completely. Additionally they trimmed neighbor's trees that were overhanging into my yard and posing a threat. After last year's ice storm (and neighbor tree that came down on my fence) I wanted the property to be safer and better prepared. A team of guys arrived as scheduled and on time and set to work. They were done in about an hour, including clean up, and the yard and driveway looked cleaner than before the work when they were done. I was very impressed with their professionalism, thoroughness and attention to detail and safety. I'd use this company again and recommend them.

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Generally, you’ll want to avoid pruning more than 25% of the tree’s canopy at one time. While pruning your tree is important, it’s possible to do it too often or to go too far. Again, this is why hiring a tree trimming pro to do the work is wise. However, if you do decide to DIY, going slow and trimming gradually is the name of the game.

Palm trees aren’t much different than your typical tree removal. Removing a palm tree is a standard procedure as long as pros have the proper tools and supplies. For DIYers, however, there are some risks associated with palm tree removal. Palm trees have spiky fronds, bark, and patches of hefty wood. So, it’s best to let an experienced tree service pro remove a palm tree.

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. 

Most experts recommend removing a tree that has sustained more than 25% loss in the limbs, trunk, or circumference of the bark. Doing an initial trimming of damaged and dangling branches, but then waiting a few days of monitoring to decide how much more you might need to cut can help you better assess the total damage to the tree. However, consulting a tree maintenance pro to make this determination the best course of action before removing a tree.

Tree roots can take weeks to years to die, depending on the method you use. Chemical herbicides take the least amount of time—typically between three and four weeks—while homemade methods, like covering an old stump with leaves, could take between seven and eight years. If you’re unsure which method to use or how quickly you need to act, consulting with a pro is always a good idea.
