"Pacific Arboriculture is so professional! From the first inspection, to the thorough written bid, to the scheduling and communication, and through to the execution of the contracted work, management and crew conducted themselves with absolute professionalism. Knowledgeable. As ISA-certified arborists, they knew all about my treesâ health and the best pruning and maintenance for the continued well-being, in spite of the treesâ problems. They guided me in making tree care decisions, putting my mind at ease by quelling potential hazards. Capable. You should see these guys climb trees! I have incredible respect for their agility, and their ability to make decisions when high up in the limbs, aiming for and achieving the right results. Conscientious. Every one of them were courteous, respectful and a pleasure to work with. Before they left, they cleaned up every limb and leaf, leaving my property in pristine condition. Appropriately-priced. I received a half-dozen recommendations and bids before making my choice. Pacific Arboriculture was the best choice for the above reasons, AND their pricing was appropriate and affordable. With my half-acre, heavily-treed property, I have finally found my forever arborists. I highly recommend them."

"Mark was fantastic. He came out for a quote and provided a very competitive bid, as well as some advice on options regarding whether to keep certain trees or not. The service was scheduled quickly. Mark and his crew came on time, and performed the work as agreed upon. I was not able to be there during the job, but it was not an issue. Mark told me to just check afterwards that what was promised, was done - and then to call back to handle the payment. Everything went smoothly, and I would highly recommend Bushman Tree Service."

Daniel, along with his co-worker, was very respectful, very prompt and very willing to tackle another project that we had. They cleaned up after they were done even out in the street. Thank you so very much! Will definitely be calling again in the Fall."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The best time to transplant a tree is when it is dormant. For many trees, this means either in the fall after the leaves have dropped (around October or November) or in early spring before new growth begins (around March). The ideal timing can depend on the type of tree. Deciduous trees do well when moved in early spring or fall, while evergreens are best transplanted in early spring or late summer. For example, pine trees are best moved in early fall, but maples prefer late fall. Avoid transplanting in winter, as the frozen or hard, cold soil poses a significant risk to the roots and prevents the tree from acclimating properly.

A general rule is that trees need 10 gallons of water for each inch of the tree’s diameter. For large trees, that can amount to approximately 160 gallons of water or more. Watering big trees to this extent can take quite a bit of time using a hose. For this reason, you may consider installing a soaker hose or sprinkler system to make the job easier.  

You should avoid cutting off the top of mature cherry trees. This process is called tree topping, and it’s not recommended for cherry trees—or any trees, for that matter. Tree topping removes between one-third to half of the length of the tree trunk, resulting in structurally unsound, fruitless suckers. The only exception is for saplings. Young pie, sour, and tart cherry trees that are over 30 inches tall in the fall or winter before the tree blooms can benefit from heading cuts.

Usually, trees cannot grow back after their stump has been ground, but some very hearty types of trees can. For example, if you have a black locust or Redford pear, the grinding will need to go deep to prevent them from growing back. Ask your tree service or stump removal expert whether your tree can resprout after its stump is ground down.

Yes, forestry mulching can grind stumps, but the level of effectiveness depends on the equipment used. Drum mulchers can break down smaller stumps, but larger or deep-rooted stumps may require a dedicated stump grinder for complete removal. If full stump removal is necessary for replanting or construction, additional excavation may be needed. Always check with your forestry mulching provider to confirm whether they offer stump grinding and if their equipment is suitable for your specific needs.
