"I contacted Woodland Tree Service via Angi’s List In August 2023. Mr. Pitts was very responsive and professional. There were several jobs I needed done (trim 3 trees and cutting down a few bushes) Mr. Pitts gave me a fair and reasonable price and completed the job as discussed (August 2023) At the recommendation of Mr. Pitts, one of the 3 trees would be better trimmed during the fall season when the wasps and bees were not present. I hired Mr. Pitts again in November 2023 and received the same professional service as before. I definitely would hire him again and recommend him should the need arise. Thank You!"

"ACE Tree Service is the absolute best. I will use them again and recommend them to anyone. First Zach came to give me the quote the same day I called. He was very helpful and a pleasure to meet. He gave me a very fair price so I signed up to have them do the work. A few days or so later, Tim and his crew came to cut the beast and other things. They did a beautiful job. Cutting down my granddaddy pine tree, trimming another tree and cutting smaller ones. Cleaned my yard very well. Today, in less than 24 hours of being cut down the pickup crew arrived to carry off the debris. They too did a spectacular job. No trace of the trees and branches. Iâ m very impressed with the quality job they have done."

"Outstanding Work – True Professionals! I hired Strategic Land Management LLC through HomeAdvisor and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the results. From the very first contact, the team was responsive, courteous, and clearly experienced. They took the time to assess my property thoroughly and provided a detailed plan that addressed everything I needed. Their work was efficient, clean, and incredibly well done. They handled some pretty tricky tree removals and land clearing with skill and care, making sure everything was done safely and to a high standard. I really appreciated how they kept me in the loop every step of the way—no surprises, just great communication and honest work. It’s hard to find companies these days that combine quality craftsmanship with great customer service, but Strategic Land Management LLC does both. I highly recommend them for any land or tree work. This is a team that truly earns your trust and delivers on their promises!"

"I had a gas line installed at my house and asked them about sump grinding. They said Matthew & Joey Tree Service and several other companies.  I went in and checked Angies List and they were 1st on the list of two. Called them, they were here in less than 10 minutes, gave me a good price and the stump was gone. Total time from being told about them to job finished was about 30 minutes. Can't beat that. Fast, good job, good price. I'll use them again.

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

The typical lifespan of a Bradford pear is relatively short, only 15 to 25 years. However, these trees have issues long before their life is over. Due to their soft wood and fast-growing branches, Bradford pear trees often split around 15 years, making them a risk for falling branches and more prone to disease. 

Homeowners are usually not responsible for trees that fall on power lines. Power companies usually have utility easements around power lines, which give them the responsibility to maintain any trees within about 15 to 20 feet of the lines.

If you’re planning on keeping the tree, unless the roots are invasive, there’s no need to remove them, as doing so can cause damage to the tree. If the tree has been cut down and the stump and roots are left, grinding and removing the stump can cause root decay for some species. For other species, the stump and roots will need to be removed to prevent pests, disease, and possible tree regrowth.

The best plan of action for an unhealthy or unsafe tree will depend on its condition. An arborist can recommend whether trimming or removal is the right call for your tree. Preventive tree trimming can keep trees safe and healthy, so make regular tree trimming a part of your yard maintenance plan.
