"They came out looked at the backyard in which I needed trees trimmed trees and shrub/ weeds removed and yard raked etc. quoted a price and stated they could start the following day.

"B & D Enterprises is a great company. They work hard and do business the right way. They recently came out to our home in Dothan, they cut down a large pine, two dead oaks and a pecan tree. They also helped us dig out entire sewer line, which needed replaced, due to roots and previous improper install. They treated us like family, and truly helped make a stressful experience better. We could not recommend them enough, and will be using them more in the future."
"I am incredibly impressed with the service provided by this team. They came out to handle a full tree removal and cleanup, and they did a phenomenal job from start to finish. The crew arrived right on schedule, assessed the area, and safely took down the tree without causing any disruptions. What really stood out was their cleanup. They didn't just haul away the big pieces; they raked up all the small branches, leaves, and debris, leaving my yard completely spotless. Their pricing was fair and exactly what was quoted in the initial estimate. If you need reliable, professional tree service, I highly recommend them!"
"Owner Joseph delivered what he promised. I needed a lot of trees/shrubs gone asap and his guys showed up the next morning. Done exactly as discussed and efficiently, cleaning as they went, took away all the debris. I will definitely be calling them for all of my tree trimming and removal projects!"
"I cannot say enough about Mr. Parrish and his crew. He came out the afternoon I called, realized we had a serious issue. This was on a Thursday and was there Monday morning to take down the tree. Outstanding group of men. We will be using them again."

Not all leaning trees are dangerous, but they can be a hazard as gravity may eventually cause them to fall. A key factor is whether the lean is new or has been present for a long time. Trees that have grown with a lean for years are not typically an immediate danger, but a sudden lean is a cause for concern as it often indicates weakening roots. If a tree is leaning more than 15% from vertical, you should consider having it straightened or transplanted. To be safe, it's always best to hire a professional arborist to inspect any leaning tree to assess the risk and avoid potential accidents.
Transporting a fully-grown tree requires heavy equipment, typically specialized for the task. A tree spade is a truck-mounted tool that removes the tree from the ground in one location, transports it, and places it in a new hole in a new location. A combination of mechanized shovels and lifts is necessary to move very large trees, and the exact tools often depend on location and the surrounding area.
Unfortunately, palm tree stumps are one of the most difficult types to remove due to how their roots grow. Unlike other trees, palm tree roots grow horizontally and vertically. Palm tree roots grow as deep as three feet into the ground, although soil and growing conditions could mean they go as far as 50 inches into the earth.
If you want to be able to repurpose the grass in the area where you removed a stump later, you’ll have to dig quite deep—and perhaps wide—to trim away all the roots.
We don’t recommend DIY tree trimming for a few different reasons. First, the tools required to trim a tree can be costly, up to $1,100 or more, for the ladders and specialized saws needed.
Safety is another concern, especially when working with more mature trees. As a guideline, you should only DIY tree trimming when branches are less than two inches in diameter. Any more, and the safety risk becomes too high, which could lead to catastrophe. For this job, it’s safest to let a tree-trimming professional assess the work needed.
Depending on the severity of the damage, a tree might continue healing for years after a split or a break. Saplings can usually bounce back in the spring in one or two seasons, but larger trees might take a few years to regain their former strength. If your tree is showing strong growth and is not dropping limbs, you can consider it healed after the first two seasons.
