"He did a great job! He trimmed some large trees on my property, cleared a large portion of my woods, and left it looking really good. He did several tasks while he was here and left everything better than he found it, not much more to say, I will hire Howard tree service in the future."

"Mr. Nelson is a people person! He does excellent work! I had a pine tree removed from my yard. After the tree was removed he referred me to a guy who removed the stump. When I informed him that I was not satisfied with the job that the guy had left the yard, he came out and completed the job himself! He went above and beyond to make sure that I was satisfied! I will refer his company to anyone who needs any type tree work done!"

"Fortunately I was flexible about the time and he came and did the job in one long day. He had all the necessary equipment and plenty of skilled workers to get the job. When they left the yard was in good shape with nothing left behind to do except pick up a fewer bigger pieces that I wouldn't want to mow over. I paid him in full after work was completed."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

There are a few instances in which removing a tree is the best option. You might do this if the tree looks to be a major danger—potentially falling onto your home, your car, or other parts of your property—or it’s diseased beyond repair. A tree that is growing too close to your house might need to be removed to prevent mold growth.

The cost of trees varies massively based on the size of the tree and the species. A small Colorado spruce can cost as little as $30, but a golden rain tree of the same size can cost $90. Large trees can cost $1,500 or more, depending on their species and height.

State and local laws vary, but in most cases, you are allowed to trim any branches from your neighbor's tree that cross your property line. However, it's important to ensure you do not damage the overall health of the tree in the process. Removing branches incorrectly can jeopardize the health of the tree and could lead to you being on the hook to replace it.

A tree can split because of high winds, a change in temperature, or from an infestation or tree disease. All of these factors can overlap, making a single cause difficult to pinpoint. While winter storms are some of the most common causes for a tree to split, it can also happen because of termites or rot.

White vinegar does not kill ivy on trees because its acetic acid concentration is not high enough to overpower it. Vinegar is an effective herbicide for weeds and other plants, but not for the strength of most ivies, including poison ivy and English ivy. You should use an herbicide to kill ivy, such as one with glyphosate, imazapyr, or triclopyr.
