"We hired Alpha to remove a large tree from our backyard that was hanging over our in ground pool. Tanner was incredibly polite and easy to talk through and had the team out to give me a quote the next day after I called. The team that removed the tree was incredibly thoughtful as they offered to cover our pool and even cleaned out any leaves that has dropped in the pool during the removal process. They were fast and efficient and left our yard cleaner than it was when they arrived in terms of branches and leaves on the ground. The price was super affordable and I would absolutely hire them again!"

"Fast and quick response to setup a time for looking at a dead ash tree I needed removed from the front of my house. Ray and crew came the very next day on a Saturday morning. They removed the dead ash tree, grind the stump and put dirt and grass seed down. Also took care of my leaves in front yard , which was a nice surprise and greatly appreciated. Rays price is very reasonable and has the best customer service. Loved how ray lets you know how the project is going. Ray also cut a piece of the tree for a keepsake. Very nice way to make a centerpiece for the table or you could paint it. It’s nice to still have a piece of my favorite tree. My yard looks better. Definitely recommend and definitely letting the word out about how amazing his crew is. Thank You!!!!"

"Dean returned my call and I described the small tree I wanted removed. I also sent him pictures. He gave me a price and removed the tree the next day. He is very knowledgeable regarding the possibility of tree roots near pipes and removed the tree and roots quickly. He also cleaned up the area afterwards. Excellent communication, very professional and got the job done! I would definitely recommend him for tree removals!"

"Ethan trimmed a large tree in my front yard. He arrived on time - explained what he would do and gave me a price. I felt it was a very fair quote and gave him the go ahead for the job. He was very professional and knew what he was doing. He completed the job and cleaned up everything and hauled all the branches in his truck. I would recommend him to anyone looking to have tree trimming done. I will use him again for future tree trimming.☺ Gerry Develice"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The best time to cut down a tree is during its dormant season, typically in winter or early spring, after all the leaves have fallen. Removing a tree during this period is advantageous for several reasons. Frozen ground helps secure the tree stump, protects the surrounding landscape from damage, and reduces the risk of the tree falling in an unintended direction. With the leaves gone, there is less risk of the tree's foliage getting tangled with other trees. Additionally, since this is often a slower season for tree services, you may be able to hire a professional at a lower rate. This dormant period is also the best time for tree trimming.

After a big storm, you may not be sure if a tree was struck or not. Look for the telltale long scars, like strips or gouges in the bark of the tree, running in sometimes jagged lines down the length of the trunk. These scars will often show vulnerable living wood inside the tree. It’s also common to see scorched or wilted leaves on the side or top of the tree where lightning struck.

A pro can guide you on the alternatives to tree topping depending on the specific issues within your trees. For example, if you’re dealing with breakage and cracks in your tree, they may suggest canopy reduction, which removes less than 25% of the tree’s limbs. If you’re dealing with lesser damage, some intentional pruning may be all you need. If you’re looking to get a clearer view through your tree, the pro may also try windowing or skirting your tree.

Completely topping a plum tree is a risky business. Cut too much, and you’ll kill your tree. That said, you do need to trim the top of your tree to encourage bushy growth, maintain your tree’s vase shape, and limit size. 

A plum tree's central leader (or trunk) should never extend more than 3 feet above the highest branch. When you first plant your tree, cut the central leader so it’s 2 to 3 feet tall. As it grows, cut it back 12 to 20 inches until it reaches its desired height. Never prune more than one-third of the new growth.

If you aren’t sure what you’re doing, be very careful when cutting mature tree roots (roots larger than 2 inches). Root cutting and pruning can affect both a tree’s stability and its ability to nourish itself. Issues during root cutting can result in damage or injury. 

It’s recommended you call in a pro to help, unless it’s a very small tree and you aren’t worried about the prospect of losing the tree.
