Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Certified Arborist?
An arborist is trained in the science and art of caring for and maintaining plants and trees. Certification involves an official assessment of an arborist’s knowledge and competence to provide proper tree care. The certified arborists at Sky Hy Tree Service & Lawn Service LLC are also required to maintain certification by remaining up to date on the latest techniques in arboriculture.
When should I fertilize my trees?
Oak, elm and most deciduous hardwood trees require annual fertilization. Depending on age and condition, different species have different needs. A thick ground cover of fallen leaves provides a good supply of nutrients to a tree for several months. Trees in urban areas can derive nutrition from planted shrubs or grass. Consult Sky Hy Tree Service & Lawn Service LLC staff for more details.
Why does my tree have black spots on the leaves?
Tar spot is a common cosmetic condition that is unsightly, but does not harm a tree and is usually cyclical. For a professional opinion regarding the health of your trees in Summit contact us at (908) 456-6196.
When should I prune my tree?
Most trees can be pruned year round in accordance with flowering and fruit production cycles. Certain trees require canopy reduction following a flowering period and not before.
What is the best time of year to remove a tree?
Winter is usually the best time for tree removal since a tree has shed its leaves and most adjacent greenery is also dormant making removal easier and more efficient.
What is done with the wood following a tree removal?
Sky Hy Tree Service & Lawn Service LLC can cut your tree into firewood or remove it from your property as desired.
Does Sky Hy Tree Service & Lawn Service LLC have regular maintenance packages?
Yes, we provide the Summit area and surrounding regions with seasonal tree care packages that include a complete line of tree care services.
