"ACE Tree Service is the absolute best. I will use them again and recommend them to anyone. First Zach came to give me the quote the same day I called. He was very helpful and a pleasure to meet. He gave me a very fair price so I signed up to have them do the work. A few days or so later, Tim and his crew came to cut the beast and other things. They did a beautiful job. Cutting down my granddaddy pine tree, trimming another tree and cutting smaller ones. Cleaned my yard very well. Today, in less than 24 hours of being cut down the pickup crew arrived to carry off the debris. They too did a spectacular job. No trace of the trees and branches. Iâ m very impressed with the quality job they have done."

"Brad is a nice guy, but only response to text. The price was high, but he jumped to work. The trees were removed, the ground was left unfinished. Every time I go to dig a hole in the yard, I find tree stumps that were just covered up. Most of the stumps are from cedar trees. Overall I would not hire them again for this type of project."

"-Kaleb and Karen are personable and professional. They attend to safety and their gear in that regard is excellent. They are thoughtful about every action, work together well, respond effectively to unforeseen circumstances, and are serious about being productive in their work. This is a dangerous business and they perform it in a supportive and, again, safe manner. -I'm 62 and, having had several trees removed, I've seen a good bit of this(utube warrior also). Was fascinated by their easy response to a necessary change in technique, and was impressed when they dropped a 100' plus pine(stepped it off on ground) exactly where Kaleb said they would. -They are an up and coming business having done this for several years on a part-time basis while Kaleb was in the military(now retired) and are very accomplished for a still relatively young couple. Young enough to be energetic and old enough to demonstrate the professionalism that comes from experience....appreciate the job they did and enjoyed spending time with and around them while they worked. Would recommend them to anyone! (Thomas and Amy Sheppard)"

I’ve been working in landscaping for 5-6 years with my father and he has more than 20 years of experience in landscaping. We are a family owned business and my father has worked for two landscaping companies and those companies are Montgomery landscaping and Golden Landscapes. We've done irrigation and drainage work in multiple locations in alabama, we also do trimming, mulch, and straw. We do work in Montgomery, Wetumpka, Prattville, Millbrook, Alabaster, and any other city in the state of Alabama. We are very well versed in trimming ,irrigation and drainage systems, and laying sod and installing shrubs, trees and flowers. We take pride in our work and we cater to every aspect of what the client asks of us and we always ask for the clients opinion of the project before we finish. I believe we should be hired because of are amazing work ethic and experience we have in doing landscaping and our top priority will be to satisfy all clients with any project they have for us to complete.

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

There are a few differences between tree guying and tree staking. Tree guying requires anchor stakes that are shorter and stronger than regular stakes and are driven deeper into the ground at an angle away from the tree. Tree staking uses longer stakes that are set parallel to the tree and are used for smaller trees. Consult a local tree professional to determine which method is best for your tree.

Late August, September, and mid-October are the ideal months for planting a young tree. However, the best time to plant a tree ultimately depends on when the weather transitions to fall-like conditions and eventually winter frost. As long as the hottest days of summer have passed and the ground hasn’t frozen yet, you can still successfully plant trees.

Licensing requirements for arborists, also known as tree surgeons, vary by state and municipality. Many areas require a license, which often involves specialized education and experience. Even if not mandated, it's wise to hire a licensed professional as they tend to have more experience. Beyond licensing, look for certifications from organizations like the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) or the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA), as this indicates a higher level of expertise. Certified arborists must typically pass a comprehensive exam. Always confirm that the arborist has a business license and is fully insured to protect yourself from liability. Seeking positive recommendations from local homeowners is also a good step in finding a qualified professional.

Most tree surgeons cost around $100 per hour or between $70 and $200 per hour for their services. You might get flat fees for more straightforward services, like a tree assessment, tree removal, stump grinding, and one-off treatments, but many times, treatments for tree diseases or pests will be charged based on an hourly rate or a per-visit rate. Since the cost of a tree surgeon can vary widely, it’s best to speak with an arborist near you to get an idea of what your particular issue will cost to correct.

It is possible to burn out a tree stump if it is dried out and in an area of your property with a large buffer. Drill holes in the stump and dig around the base so it burns more easily. Then, build a small campfire on top using kindling and firewood. You’ll need enough to keep the fire going for many hours to completely burn out the stump, especially if it’s large. 

Monitor the fire closely to ensure it doesn’t spread, and have a hose on hand if it starts to get out of control. When the fire is out, break apart the burned stump and dig out what’s left of it.  

If this sounds like a good option, learn more about how to burn a tree stump before attempting it, as it does come with risks.
