"Almstead removed a tree from my property in NJ I was FULLY satisfied with the job handled by the team assigned. I took a few photos and videos of the team hard at work, as they were persistent in getting the tree removed in one day; and they did IT! I donâ  t normally provide a vendor testimony, but the Almsted family did a fabulous job and was totally dedicated and committed to ensure the customer was satisfied and happy. If you ever need tree services, I highly recommend Almstead tree services as the company to use. A Satisfied Customer!"

"It was good, it was very good. It was all of last year. I think, but they were kind of on their own schedule or I would just find out when they were here. Other than that, I think it was just fine. At least the grass was happy. I don?t know the comparative pricing, but I think it was probably an ?A? as well, it wasn?t too bad.  I think, the only thing if they had to improve was I had no clue what the schedule was. They would just come and do their things.

At times, it was like fall is coming soon, are they going to come or not come for the winterization. I just had no idea. Of course, they came through, but that was the main thing I would want them to improve on. To kind of give people a heads up on what the dates are and when they expect to be there, so there is less guessing. I did get in touch with them trying to find out and they did get back to me right away. There was no set schedule, so I can?t hold them to a schedule if I don?t know what it was. It was a yearly plan, basically pay one time a month."

"My wife and I recently moved into a new home, and the yard needed quite a bit of tree work done. Luckily Northeastern Tree Care was recommended, and we had the pleasure of working with Nick, Vinny and their team. They were *very* professional, courteous and efficient, and they were thorough from the initial consultation all the way through to their trememdous day of tree work. They got to work right on time, were armed with some pretty substantial equipment, and were careful at removing and trimming our trees without damange to our yard. Their stump grinding was excellent, and the areas were left clean and tidy. We were very impressed with the quality of their work, and we appreciated their expertise and dedication to doing the job right. These guys are great people, and we highly recommend Northeastern to anyone who has big work to be done on their trees."

"We just had an 18 inch snow storm and we never used Nantucket before. We called the night before and they asked just to call later in the afternoon to see if they would be avaibable. I did e-mail and they were quick to respond and sent someone out. They were done within 30 minutes and did a great job with our long, tight driveway and stairs. Great service and we would definitely use them again. Thanks again for our last minute request."

"Called him..He came out to our home in a timely fashion, we discussed options for retaining wall, walkway and new stone steps. Nice enough guy...Never got back to us with an estimate as promised. It's been almost three months..LOL.
It's a real shame that this seems to be the norm in Orange County. No respect for the customer and no concern about follow through. Sigh.

FAQs for trees & shrubs treat, protect and maintain projects in Westwood, NJ

The optimal transplanting season depends on your tree species, but most trees respond best when moved during dormancy. For deciduous trees, late fall after leaf drop or early spring before bud break provides the lowest stress periods. Evergreens transplant better in early fall or late summer when soil temperatures remain warm enough for some root growth. Avoiding transplanting during active growth periods helps trees direct energy toward establishing new roots rather than supporting foliage.

While technically, trees of any size can be transplanted with the right equipment and expertise, practical considerations limit what's reasonable for most homeowners. Trees with trunk diameters under 15 inches are most commonly transplanted in residential settings. Success rates decline as trees increase in size and age, with specimens over 24 inches in diameter presenting significant challenges and costs. For large trees, carefully weigh the substantial investment against the potential benefits and survival probability.

Most transplanted trees require one to two years to fully establish in their new location, with larger specimens often needing additional time. During this establishment period, the tree regenerates roots that were inevitably lost during the move. Signs of successful establishment include normal seasonal growth patterns, healthy leaf development, and reduced dependence on supplemental watering. The quality of aftercare during this critical period significantly influences long-term survival rates.

Self-transplanting is feasible for small trees with trunk diameters under two to three inches if you have proper tools and follow correct techniques. However, medium to large trees require professional expertise and specialized equipment to ensure tree survival and property protection. While professional services cost more initially, they achieve much higher success rates and prevent potential damage to your property or the tree itself. The investment in professional services often proves worthwhile when considering the value of mature trees.
