"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

Many species, especially when well-established, are not fans of transplantation. You’ll need to decide if you want to risk splashing the cash, understanding that transplantation isn’t always successful. Again, this is where hiring a pro is helpful, as they can give you all the essential info you need to ensure your tree stands a fighting chance.

A tree growing close to a house can pose several risks, but removal isn't always the only or best solution. Potential problems include roots growing into the foundation and causing structural cracks, branches damaging the roof or promoting moss growth, and debris clogging gutters, which can lead to water damage. Trees can also provide access for pests and encourage mold. However, a small, healthy tree may not be a problem, and for larger, established trees, strategic trimming can be a cheaper and more beneficial alternative to removal. It is generally recommended to take action for trees within 10 to 20 feet of your home, especially if they are unhealthy or encroaching. Your best bet is to consult a professional arborist who can assess the specific situation and provide expert advice.

Although it’s possible, heavy machinery like a crane is necessary for removing an entire tree stump and all. This procedure is extremely costly, time-consuming, and usually unnecessary, as there are plenty of convenient and affordable stump removal options. 

Your best bet, if you want to be sure to remove a tree and its stump efficiently, is to speak with a professional. They’ll be able to walk you through the entire process.

Tree borers are difficult to control and remove once they make a home in your tree. However, with patience and determination, some methods can slow the damage or even eliminate the pests. But, once the damage is too much for the tree to handle, the only solution becomes removing it. Talk to a tree specialist early for the best chance at saving your tree.

The costs vary from $250 to $5,000 per tree, depending on the size, complexity of the trimming, and labor.
