"I highly recommend this company. They were on time for all appointments, worked quickly and cleaned up the area after the tree was removed. The owner was very knowledgeable about cutting trees, took time to explain the steps and was willing to answer all questions. I felt very confident that he had experienced in tree cutting and I was right. They did an absolutely awesome job."

"We had an outstanding experience working with Darryl Papajeski and Ground Force South LLC. We hired Darryl to remove a dead tree from a sloped location near our house. The sloped terrain with underground sprinkler lines, main water line, and leech fields made equipment navigation tricky and dangerous, but the entire job was handled with absolute precision and safety. His pricing was fair, his communication was excellent, and the cleanup was spotless. It was easy to get in contact with him and the Ground Force South office. Between first contact, estimate visit, and job done for a non-emergency took 4 business days. It could have been two but rain had soaked the terrain and safety came first. This contractor is a certified arborist, he is honest and highly skilled. If you have a challenging property layout or just want a tree job done safely and correctly, call Ground Force South 205-440-1660. We highly recommend and will work with Darryl and Ground Force South again."

"I needed two trees removed. One was leaning on my back deck and was about one rainstorm away from falling on it. The other one was a tall one that was near my house and the power line. I called Big Dogs Tree Service and Sam picked up. I sent him pictures of both trees. He showed up the same day and removed both trees."

"Skyline was prompt on their timeline, looked over my project to be done and gave me an acceptable estimate. They were knowledgeable, professional and willing to answer questions. When they came to do the job they didn’t mess around, got right to it, got it done and thoroughly cleaned everything up. Communication was on point. We talked about some other projects that they may be helpful in the future. I’d definitely hire them again as needed."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

After a big storm, you may not be sure if a tree was struck or not. Look for the telltale long scars, like strips or gouges in the bark of the tree, running in sometimes jagged lines down the length of the trunk. These scars will often show vulnerable living wood inside the tree. It’s also common to see scorched or wilted leaves on the side or top of the tree where lightning struck.

DIY is risky and not recommended for large trees; professional services ensure safe removal and proper disposal.

Bleach can potentially kill some types of delicate ornamental trees, but for the most part, it will only kill the foliage it comes in contact with. Applying bleach is not an effective method of killing a tree. A better option is to use an herbicide, which is a chemical compound designed to effectively kill a tree. 

Trees naturally want to grow upward, so one may straighten all by itself, though this only comes into play when a tree is leaning just a small amount. For trees growing into an awkward position or those leaning heavily in one direction, the above steps are necessary to ensure the tree gets back on the right path. This also holds true for trees planted in a spot with unstable soil.

It may not be worth it to rake every leaf in your yard, but it’s necessary to remove the majority of leaves to prevent them from smothering grass growth on your lawn. However, raking leaves isn’t your only option for leaf removal. You can remove leaves easily with a leaf blower or compost or mulch them with your lawn mower to repurpose them to help grow your garden or yard.
