"Great service and knowledge. First, they responded to the HA request the next day. Scheduling and evaluation was simple and direct and prompt. Arborist doing the eval was very helpful in our walk through of our trees. He was clearly tree-centric. Bid offered before he left. Very good value. Second, scheduling the service was again responsive and simple. Just a few days between contact, scheduling and service. Third, they called the next day after service to be sure everything was completed and to my satisfaction. The crew doing the work was attentive and clearly understood the goals. The worked fast, but completely. I rated the quality at 4.5 only because there was some minor clean up issues. Finally, I've used Top Tree two times prior to joining HA. I was please to see HA had them as a recommended provider. I would use Top Tree again."

"My giant cherry tree fell over at 5pm and I called Brian for emergency tree removal. The next morning, he had a crew out to chop down and chip the tree. He then came out with the stump grinder and took care of the rest. It was all done by 1:00pm!! I cannot recommend Sound Stump more highly. I was in a situation where the rest of the tree could have fallen and done serious damage to property. Brian saved the day; the arborists were incredibly kind, conscientious, and helpful, which I especially appreciated in an emergency. This is an exemplary company. Thank you, Brian!"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Tree borers are difficult to control and remove once they make a home in your tree. However, with patience and determination, some methods can slow the damage or even eliminate the pests. But, once the damage is too much for the tree to handle, the only solution becomes removing it. Talk to a tree specialist early for the best chance at saving your tree.

The best tools for tree removal include a chainsaw for large trees, an ax for notching and cutting down small trees, and a wedge to help control the direction a tree falls in. A hatchet can be useful for very small trees, but won’t be effective for medium to large trees. 

If you’re wondering why tree trunks are painted white in your area, it’s usually to prevent sunscald, a condition where extreme shifts in temperature can cause tree bark to split. Fruit trees are especially vulnerable to sunscald, so this treatment is worth considering if it’s something that affects your trees.

Signs include dead branches, growth over structures, diseases, pests, or roots impacting hardscapes.

In nature, there are many things that can cause a tree to die, including diseases, insects, and natural disasters such as fires or droughts. Non-natural methods of killing a tree include herbicides or manual intervention, such as cutting it down. Consult a tree removal professional about your options for naturally killing a tree.
