"I contacted 2 highly-reviewed and rated companies, American Tree Care being one of them. Ammon, the owner is knowledgeable, personable, and truly cares that you walk away having had a good experience. Price wise, they were a tad bit lower than the other well-rated company (Both were fair and reasonable in my opinion). He was able to work with me on schedule and made sure that the surrounding trees were protected while his crew was working. Hard working crew who were knowledgeable, and didn't waste any time getting to work. Excellent experience and highly recommend. I will definitely be calling Ammon at American Tree Care first"

"Your search for the best tree service can end with Bear Creek Tree Service. From the initial contact, to the estimate and the final job completion, the service provided by Bear Creek Tree Service was fantastic. Ray came out and provided us with a quote that was hard to pass up. His crew was at our house two days later and went above and beyond to provide awesome service. Quick, efficient and professional. We love the final results and have found our tree service company for many years to come. A special thank you to both Kari and Ray, as well as Joel, Cookie and Donnie."

"I had a few pros come out and really enjoyed the conversation with Zach (Owner). He laid out exactly the timeline and dump cost. He was able to squeeze my project in the next Friday/Saturday. His brother came out with one additional guy and completed almost the entire project in half the time (they charge by the hour and work quick). I asked them to come back the next day and added additional work based on their recommendations. Due to their hard work and complete transparency. I will be hiring them for two additional projects on my property I hope to have completed as soon as I get the permit. I highly recommend Dirt Raptor for any land clearing or tree removal services."

"Robert gave us a reasonable quote even charging us less when he got to the job. Who does that? No additional fees after doing the job. Site was cleaned up after he was done. He toughed out 90 minutes of traffic to get to us instead of canceling. Should have been a 20 minute drive. I would highly recommend Robert and would use his services again."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

The best way is to start controlling tree height long before it grows too large, via careful pruning through the years. But that’s not always possible. If a tree has become too high or too large, use selective pruning to remove the most troublesome branches, one by one, without topping the tree. Gently shaping a tree like this can, over time, correct problems. You can also find growth inhibitors to spray on a tree to stop it from growing too rapidly, but use these sparingly if at all.

The shepherd’s tree, native to the Kalahari Desert in Africa, holds the record for the deepest known tree roots at over 230 feet deep. Some African communities refer to it as the “Tree of Life” since it provides food, shade, and medicinal properties to the surrounding community.

Transporting a fully-grown tree requires heavy equipment, typically specialized for the task. A tree spade is a truck-mounted tool that removes the tree from the ground in one location, transports it, and places it in a new hole in a new location. A combination of mechanized shovels and lifts is necessary to move very large trees, and the exact tools often depend on location and the surrounding area.

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

In most cases, you should not use a pruning seal on trees after trimming. Applying a sealant can interfere with the tree's natural healing process, and it does not guarantee protection from pathogens. Instead of sealing the cut, the best practice is to support the tree's natural recovery by providing it with plenty of water and a dormant-style fertilizer. However, there are exceptions. Pruning seals may be recommended for very vulnerable species, like elm trees, in areas where dangerous diseases such as Dutch elm disease are prevalent. In these specific situations, the protection offered by a sealant can outweigh its downsides. For advice tailored to your situation, especially after cutting large branches, it is best to consult a local tree trimming professional.
