"Very friendly and accommodating crew. They are very knowledgeable and experienced workers. The supervisor came to my house on Friday to look at the tree and returned later in the to brace it so it would not fall on my roof. He came back on Saturday with a partial crew to remove a limb close to the roof and further brace the tree. They were supposed to come about 8:00am to finish the job but they called and said they were at another job. A lady had called them and asked if they could take her tree out first. Her tree had been stuck by lightning and was still on fire. After the fire department left they took care of her tree. They got to my house about 2:00 and removed two more large branches and left for the day. They came back on Wednesday morning and finished the job. They left a 3 foot stump for me to install a bird bath. The branches were cut into 16 inch lengths for my fireplace and stacked it. They cleaned up the mess, leaves, wood chips, saw dust and drink cans. They hauled away all the big branches. The cost was $2800 but we gave them a $200 tip."

"Needed a couple trees trimmed and Jake came and gave me an estimate. Him and his crew were there a couple days later, did the job, cleaned up, and it looked great. Would strongly recommend them for any lawn care, landscaping, or tree trimming."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Dead tree branches should be removed, because they can cause the tree to lose nutrients. They can also make the tree more susceptible to disease and pests. Removing dead and diseased branches can help the tree recover and increase the odds of saving a dying tree. Make sure to prune the tree correctly to avoid damaging it further.

The best tools for tree removal include a chainsaw for large trees, an ax for notching and cutting down small trees, and a wedge to help control the direction a tree falls in. A hatchet can be useful for very small trees, but won’t be effective for medium to large trees. 

The average tree pruning should take one hour with the right equipment. Light pruning of a small tree may only take around 15 to 20 minutes. Pruning multiple large trees in your yard will probably take several hours, including cleanup. However, tree pruning pros can do this job much faster, so you can rely on pros if you’re short on time.

If you don’t cut down a dead, dying, or diseased tree, it can become a nesting place for pests like mosquitos, bees, beetles, wasps, fly larvae, and more. Some pests will live in the tree, while others will feed off the decaying wood. Unhealthy trees are also more likely to fall over, potentially injuring people and causing damage to your property.

Since overwatering can harm mature trees just as much as a lack of water, it’s important to know the signs of an overwatered tree. If your tree’s leaves are yellowing, wilting, or dropping leaves, it’s likely that you’re overwatering. Other common signs include rotting, fungi, soggy soil, soft or peeling bark, falling leaves, and brittle roots. 

If you realize that you’ve been overwatering your mature tree, stop watering and give the soil time to dry out. Then moving forward, increase time between watering sessions.
