"Cherry Tree Service did an awesome job. I had 2 60ft oak trees that need to be brought down due to rotting. Their prices were very reasonable, they cleaned up the job site, and they completed all of the work appropriately and timely. I will use them again when I need trees removed."

"They were very professional. Got there within the hour of when they said. There was an arborist and two guys. They knew what they were doing. They left the yard cleaner than when they started, they raked and blew the yard. They did a terrific job! The tree looks great. I would hire them again right away."

"Luis and his team were great! I had a large tree that was surrounded by my house, the neighbors house, and a garage. They had it down and the wood stacked neatly in about half a day. Later in the day, I called back to see where the anchors were for my sons playhouse, and Luis said he would check with the crew and call me back. Within 30 min I got a call back saying where they anchors were but not to worry as Luis had already came back and put the playhouse/anchors back in himself. What great customer service!! I would definitely recommend them to others and hire again for future needs."

"Juan isn't just a person with a team who can remove large trees with efficiency; he is an arborist who really has vision of what can be done with a property. I recommend him not only for tree removal but for planting and landscape work. And the value that you get for the price is just great."

"Sylvester did a fabulous job on this task. All we needed was to have some dead trees laying over a non-live utility line cut-up more along with some of the other shrubs that were affected by the weight of the trees. We did not have the right equipment to complete this part of the project. Sylvester completed the task with great efficiency and professionalism. We would definitely recomment him and hire him again if needed."

"Tim called in response to an inquiry for emergency tree removal. He came out within an hour alone to take down a large dead Ash that broke 4' above the ground and was ready to fall across the road in front of our house. Tim had the tree down and cleaned off the road immediately.Tim also took down another tree that was broken off and hung up in other trees preventing it from falling on our garage. He brought this tree down with out any damage. Tim and his crew will be coming back for additional tree removal and landscaping. I highly recommend this company for this work."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Palm trees are unique in that their roots don't grow straight down; they grow horizontally. Typically, palm tree roots go down between 12 and 36 inches deep. The roots grow far and wide from the base of the palm tree to absorb as much water and soil nutrients as possible. In addition, the horizontal roots are also very strong—keeping palm trees stable and helping them sway during storms.

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?

Tree trimming can count as landscaping, depending on how a landscaping business describes its services. Professional tree trimmers are more specialized than landscapers and offer trimming services separately from general landscaping.

When general landscaping companies offer tree trimming, look up the details. They usually mean shaping or seasonal trimming of ornamental trees, which is different from trimming larger trees for health or safety reasons. When possible, look for a licensed expert that specializes in trees and tree health.

Once you confirm a tree is dead, you should remove it. Dead trees eventually fall, and larger trees in particular can cause damage to rooftops, fencing, flowers, and other objects. As we mentioned, letting decayed wood stay in your yard also invites risks to the surrounding landscaping and vegetation.

While there is a lot of debate about whether boiling water is strong enough to kill tree roots, it is not best to remove the roots from large, old trees. You may be able to weaken young roots enough to remove them manually, but boiling water will likely not do the trick for large root systems.
