"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!!!!"

"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"

"The request for an estimate was prompt to have a mature tree taken done with stump grinding and clean up. Once we settled on his price the work was done within a weeks time. We were happy with his friendly and informative service. There weren't any sticks or sawdust left behind. My yard was left immaculate. I would definitely recommend them!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

In most cases, you should not use a pruning seal on trees after trimming. Applying a sealant can interfere with the tree's natural healing process, and it does not guarantee protection from pathogens. Instead of sealing the cut, the best practice is to support the tree's natural recovery by providing it with plenty of water and a dormant-style fertilizer. However, there are exceptions. Pruning seals may be recommended for very vulnerable species, like elm trees, in areas where dangerous diseases such as Dutch elm disease are prevalent. In these specific situations, the protection offered by a sealant can outweigh its downsides. For advice tailored to your situation, especially after cutting large branches, it is best to consult a local tree trimming professional.

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.

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?

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.

Leaving a dead tree can expose your other trees to potential diseases, pests, and fungi, and it can also be a hazard. If your tree is dead, then you should hire a tree maintenance service to remove it. Cutting down trees is extremely dangerous, and a professional can ensure no one gets hurt and there is no damage to your property. Tree removal costs between $200 and $2,000 and will prevent future issues and keep you and your property safe.
