"They did quality work in minimal amount of time. The only problem I have is the quote given me was for removal and cleanup. However when I went to pay them , they said the quote was just for taking the trees down. Clean up was another $200. The owner doesnâ t speak English. His daughter gave me the quote. His son was the one who collected the payment. He said he was sorry but I had to pay the extra money. I would hire them again but I would want a written quote prior to the work being done."

"I met Gabe through a friend. I had a few trees with large dead limbs, with the potential for causing a hazardous situation. He called me from a job in Baker, said he was leaving heading my way. He was at my house in about 25 minutes. He looked the situation over, gave me a recommendation and a quote. Was also given a price for mulching a section of my property that was overgrown with yaupon and brush. He returned a few days later to trim the trees. He brought out his mulcher a few days later and cleared my property. He did a fantastic job, and I would highly recommend Gabe. He’s truly a man of his word"

"If you are looking for a cheap job to be done by a hack, this is not The company you want. In fact Murphy Tree was the highest of the three estimates that I received. However, They were the only one that I felt was being very honest from the beginning, knew what they were talking about and for some reason made me feel not only confident that they could do the job but also, I felt like I was not being sold the bill of goods. The tree that I had removed had been dead for a few years and was rotted through and through. When it came time to bring it down, They were not comfortable doing it with the crew that they had So they simply brought in another crew with more experience. It doesn't matter how cheap someone tells you they will do something, if they can't do it. Not getting this project done was never an option with Murphy Tree. I paid a bit more than I expected to pay but when the job was completed, I could barely tell that they were ever there. Excellent job!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Professionals ensure safety, prevent property damage, and handle debris efficiently.

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 felling notch you make before you make the final cut will determine which way the tree will fall. The cut will be in a wedge or triangle, and the tree will fall from the highest point of the triangle. You can use this, as well as the process described above, to estimate where a tree will fall. 

Trees aren't big fans of moving, and they do go into shock during a transplant. Although most carefully thought-out tree transplants see the tree recover from the shock just fine, there is always a risk of having an unsuccessful move. Proper preparation, timing, and diligent aftercare are crucial to minimize the risks when transplanting a tree.

Firewood tends to be cheaper during the spring and summer. When the demand for firewood is lower during these seasons, many firewood companies offer lower prices and added discounts. In addition, the supply of firewood is typically higher in these months, meaning the quality is typically higher as well.
