"Zach, came out during the week to draft an estimate and the work was on a Sunday 08-01-2021. They trimmed several trees, including the ones hanging over the power line. These two guys were very professional, the job may have taken them about 6 or 7 hours. They cleaned up the area and hailed the branches away. Their work was reasonably priced and my yard looks amazing. I will definitely be using them again!!"

"We hired Rojas to replace a timber retaining wall and to clean up, edge and mulch the beds around our house. Lino and his crew were very professional, flexible and efficient and delivered beautiful work for a very fair price. I would hire them again."

"They are great workers but you can not communicate with them unless you speak Spanish. The English speaking boss finally came to be paid. He should have stayed to answer questions."

Very timely, they cleaned up when the work was done, they did three jobs for me 1) 70-foot tree, they got that done in half a day. 2) Business job, cleaned up around 11 trees here... 3) Referenced to my neighbour, they removed 60+ feet trees. Did very well, good teamwork from the crew. They said what they were going to do. I would hire them again!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Yes, it’s okay to trim low branches on a tree, also known as limbing up or raising the crown. Essentially, you’ll trim the lower third of the tree (trunk) and leave the upper two-thirds of the tree (crown). Arborists recommend trimming 20% of a tree’s leaves per season for two to three seasons. Trimming low branches allows light to flow through the tree, increasing circulation and making the tree stronger and healthier.

An unsafe tree can cause serious damage to your home and property, so tree inspections are important to ensure your home isn’t in danger from a nearby tree. Unhealthy trees can also be unsafe trees, as diseases and insect damage can compromise a tree’s stability, leading to potential damage and safety risks.

Yes, it is essential to confirm that any tree service company you hire is properly insured before they begin work. Tree removal, trimming, and pruning are dangerous jobs, and proper insurance protects you, your home, and the company from liability in case of accidents or damage. Look for a company that carries both general liability and workers’ compensation insurance, and do not hire one that cannot provide proof of coverage. When browsing for professionals, you can look for indicators like an “Angi Approved” badge, which signifies that the business meets standards like holding applicable licenses and passing a background check. Keep in mind that a license is a legal requirement to operate, while certifications are typically voluntary.

Often, it’s the homeowner’s responsibility to handle the aftermath when a neighbor’s tree falls on their property. But if a tree has been obviously dead for a significant period of time and caused damage when it fell, a case can be made that the owner should have removed it, especially if the neighbor wrote you a letter about the tree or asked you to take it down. This can be grounds for a successful lawsuit in claims court and is a good reason to always pay attention to your trees and remove dead trees before they fall.

There are many signs that a tree is diseased or dying, and if you suspect that’s the case, you should call an arborist immediately. You might notice rot or fungus on the trunk or that the tree is beginning to lean to one side. Brittle branches or signs of root damage are other indicators that a tree is in trouble. If the tree is dying, it might be time to cut the tree down so it doesn’t fall.
