"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."

"These guys are fantastic. We met with several arborists, and Brenda & Jose impressed us from the moment we met them. One tree was a problematic situation because it was our neighbor's tree that we needed to have the branches removed from our property, and our neighbor was not cooperating. Originally we planned to have the tree cut with a hedge trimer right up the property line. Jose cared enough and hand-cut each branch individually. This tree is at least 75' tall. The other two trees we in our back yard and again, the team at Altaview performed to perfection."

"I had American Tree Care out in 2012 and they did a great job, so I contacted Ammon last fall about coming out again and doing more cleanup in my yard. I had a dead alder tree that looked like it was about to fall over (but woodpeckers loved!) removed entirely and the stump ground. I had some really out-of-control trees on both side yards removed and stumps ground as well. And some other trees in my back yard, I had him remove what branches he felt needed to be removed in order to clean up the appearance and make them safer, and remove several branches that were hanging over neighbor's property removed so they didn't break off and drop on his plants or yard. My yard looks great and wide open now in areas where there was a lot of branches overhanging from neighbor's yards. (He pruned those back). I also had some wood in back that broke off in a windstorm that his crew cut into smaller pieces for me. They used a chipper to chop up all the branches, etc and left the pile in a place where I could spread them out to cover dirt to prevent weeds and moss. They did a great job cleaning up all the debris from the work they did. Very happy with the work the crew did today and I highly recommend them! Thanks Ammon!"

"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."

"I've engaged a couple other tree service companies in the past for my wooded home plot, but always felt like they were trying to sell me on additional items that I didn't need. One service showed up for my latest job to give an estimate and immediately began pointing out 9 trees that needed to come down "immediately" because they were "dangerous," quoting $1,000 per tree - all I wanted was trimming limbs back from the main electrical line to my house. Bear Creek sent an experienced arborist for an estimate, and he proceeded to teach me about the various trees, explained where the previous company was wrong in their assessment and that they were trying to take advantage of me. The amount of knowledge Bear Creek had, and their honesty in their assessment and not selling me on items I didn't need, showed how trustworthy they were. When they came out for the job, they arrived a little early, all wore masks, observed social distancing and other Covid related rules, performed an amazing job, and thoroughly cleaned up when they were done. They also offered to provide me the wood chips if I wanted them - I did - and they were kind enough to deliver the huge pile to a location in the back of the lot, and they volunteered to chip random fallen branches along the way. They did such a great job that I hired them a second time to clean up and chip other fallen branches and brush piles, again showed up early and did a superb job, including volunteering to cut up the remainder of a fallen tree that had blocked my secondary driveway. I'm extremely happy with the job and results from Bear Creek, and will definitely be using them as my go-to tree service company moving forward!"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

Unfortunately, if you cut the top off a palm tree, it will die. Instead of budding or branching out, the top begins to slowly rot. That's why having a professional tree trimming at least twice a year is a good idea. If you don’t have experience with trimming your palm tree, you might accidentally cut the top off, leaving a dead and rotting tree in your wake.

If a disease has attacked and destroyed the roots, then the tree may fall over as soon as it has died or while part of it is still alive. Trees that die with their roots left in place tend to stay standing for much longer, but those roots will decay eventually, allowing gravity to do the rest.

Unlike some fruit trees, such as apple, sweet cherry, or pear that require at least two trees for pollination, most peach trees are self-pollinating. This means you can plant just one tree and still expect it to produce fruit, typically within two to four years. For best results, consult with a local landscaper to choose the right peach tree variety for your specific climate, soil type, and yard layout.

A grafted tree is a tree grown by combining two trees. It takes expertise. Branches from grafted trees don’t grow strong roots. Save yourself the time and frustration by having an arborist help you with this advanced project.  

You can often tell if a tree is grafted because it will have a noticeable line. Above the line, the bark will look different than it does below the line. It’s most common with fruit trees.
