"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."

"The men from Matthew and Jody's were thorough, explained their estimates, carefully examined my yard for other trees that might need to be removed in the future, and their prices were more than fair. Their estimate was hundreds of dollars less than the other two companies I contacted.
They cut up and hauled off the trees they removed, then used a blower to make sure the yard was as clean as possible. 
They followed up afterwards to be sure that their work was satisfactory.
I highly recommend them for their honesty, integrity, fair-pricing, and the quality of their work.

"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)"

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

Some people prefer to leave or even carve a leftover stump, but we recommend removing it if possible. You can often dig out smaller trunks with a shovel once they have died and dried out. You can have stumps professionally removed, or request a service to grind them down to ground level so they can be replaced with other landscaping or objects.

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.

You should prune ornamental trees once every other year after the fruit has matured and begun to drop. You should also prune out dead branches whenever you see them. Pruning too often can stimulate more growth, especially in faster growing varieties like Bradford pears.

Pruning can impact cold hardiness—but it’s less about the exact temperature and more about temperature variation. Generally, you don’t want to prune trees when there’s a risk of temperatures suddenly dropping from 50 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit to 0 degrees Fahrenheit or below. A tree is most sensitive until 48 hours after it’s pruned.

If you don’t stake a tree that needs support, it could be at greater risk of being damaged or failing completely, whether it uproots or falls over. That could cause damage to your property or other surrounding trees. If you want to grow healthy trees, you may need to stake them for best results.
