"We were so impressed by the quality of professionalism, from the gal answering the phone, to Kevin, to the "tree guys" felling the trees exactly in the space we requested. All were very helpful and courteous. Kevin's summation on our troublesome huge pine root heaving up our blacktop was about what we expected, but he went into detail and gave some good advice to help the problem. Great job!!!"

"I had a huge pine tree unexpectedly fall between my house and my neighbor?s house, blocking access to their back door. Marcelo quickly responded and had it all cleaned up within 24 hours at a very reasonable price. He also picked up a couple of other jobs in my neighborhood while he was here. Great service and I highly recommend Newf & Trees for any of your tree needs."

"We were satisfied with the outcome of our retaining wall project. It took a little longer than we initially anticipated, but in the end, the final quality of the work was worth it. They installed two block walls, replaced and updated our downspout drainage system, and fixed the fence gate that sits behind one of the walls. They were friendly throughout."

"Brett Hulsey is relentless in pursuit of the underlying cause of why frames don't fit, why the ceiling leaks, etc. I had a particularly vexing problem and over a two-month period, and three or four attempts to fix leaks, he solved it. He never gave up."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, and burning can all help dissolve a tree stump. You can also bury the tree stump in soil or mulch to help it rot naturally. Killing a tree stump prevents future regrowth, but you may also remove it by digging it out or grinding it.

Not all evergreen conifers need to be pruned, but some do. Pruning pine trees is not necessary, but you can do so during June and July if you wish. On the other hand, spruce, firs, and junipers do need to be pruned from late winter to early spring.

A dead tree should always be cut down, because it could fall and cause injuries or damage, and it can also attract insects like carpenter ants. A tree that’s diseased beyond repair should also be cut down, but it’s not always easy for a homeowner to tell. Signs of disease include dying branches, a hollow trunk, leaning, and discolored or missing leaves, but your best bet is to hire a local arborist who can evaluate the tree and tell you if it can be saved or should be cut down.

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.

Finding a reliable arborist starts with researching specialists in your area and checking their licensing and certifications. Use online resources like the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to conduct research on each company. Next, contact the arborist and ask the following questions to see whether they are the right fit for your project:

  • Do you handle or specialize in dealing with the issue I’m having?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Do you have any third-party certifications?

  • What equipment and strategies do you plan to use?
