"Excellent! The Team (3-4 Men) was diligent, efficient, polite and hard-working. They left the site immaculate. Their work has already received compliments from neighbors and others. The Supervisor visited the site to evaluate the work done; he, too, was very professional. I hope to work with Jorge's Landscaping again."

"Working with Taylor and Connor was one of my best experiences in dealing with having professionals work at my home. Communications was immediate and efficient. They were respectful, kind and conscientious when cleaning the dirt, algae and lichen from the patio, sidewalks and driveway. They were especially careful to preserve all my flowers and landscaping bordering the cement areas. I’m delighted to now look at my clean cement surfaces! There was an especially challenging area at the bottom of my driveway, which they were able to figure out a process to remove the excess dirt. They far exceeded my expectations and the price was very reasonable. I would highly recommend them for all of your power washing needs."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Since summer is a busy time for tree companies, the cheapest time of year to remove a tree is during the winter. February and March are typically the prime time to hire a tree removal pro, and some homeowners living in colder climates can save around 20% off services. It depends on location and the company, but you can always shop around for the best deal.

Any cutting of tree roots can hurt or kill a tree, which is why it's recommended you don’t do it unless the roots are damaging or invasive on a nearby structure like your home. You should never cut more than 15 percent of above-ground tree roots at one time. If you have any questions about cutting tree roots, contact your local arborist.

If you don’t cut down a dead, dying, or diseased tree, it can become a nesting place for pests like mosquitos, bees, beetles, wasps, fly larvae, and more. Some pests will live in the tree, while others will feed off the decaying wood. Unhealthy trees are also more likely to fall over, potentially injuring people and causing damage to your property.

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. 

Early signs that a tree is struggling include premature leaf shedding and lesions or other strange markings. Peeling bark, dead or rotten branches on the ground, and a conspicuous lack of leaves can all be signs that a tree has started to die. By the time a tree starts leaning, it’s usually too far gone to save.
