"This group is top notch! I inquired about some trees and debris needing to be removed at a cost I could afford. Wesley gave me a call quickly,he came out gave me an estimate then I called him that afternoon. In less than 2 weeks job done it was alk cleaned up in one day it was remarkable. I will admit I kept adding things on with a little extra cost but he was very patient with me and got everything done and more . These guys are over the top with excellence. Great work and the job is done in a small amount of time. We had debri from 2024 tornado and I cant say enough good things about them. Wesley is easy to talk to about any concerns you might forsee. You will not go wrong by hiring this group! We are very well pleased."

"I’ve been using Tyce’s Tree Service for over seven years. I highly recommend them not only to trim and remove trees, but also for any of your heavy yard-maintenance needs (plant care is not their strong suit). They are particularly good at tree removal and rock constructions, but they will do any heavy duty yard tasks. During this time I have used them on over 50 projects including: • removing about 20 trees • procuring & delivering 4-6 yards of landscape mulch, soil, fill, gravel, and stone • collecting and mulching 20 yards of leaves each year • repairing and rebuilding leaks, plumbing, and rock settings on my water feature • building two dry-stack stone retaining walls • adding a 40 foot rock garden and a 15 foot decorative berm to the yard • digging about 400 holes for large plants • installing simple drip irrigation • spreading 100 yards of mulch • burring drain pipe • hauling off yard waste • general yard and patio clean-up, maintenance, and repair I am completely pleased with their performance on all these projects. I recommend them to everyone looking for yard “hard-scaping” because they are: • trustworthy, honest, and frank • reasonably priced • hard working and need no supervision • good listeners and willing to do your project the way you want it done • Tyce is always on site to resolve any issues • clean-up at the end of the project without having to be nagged"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

A chainsaw is the best tool to cut down a tree, but you may also use a handsaw or ax. You may also want to use a lopper or pole saw to remove limbs before cutting down the tree. Wear chainsaw chaps and protective gear, including eyewear and earplugs if you use a chainsaw. Again, if you’re unsure about how to use this tool, this project may be one to skip.

Tree trimming can count as landscaping, depending on how a landscaping business describes its services. Professional tree trimmers are more specialized than landscapers and offer trimming services separately from general landscaping.

When general landscaping companies offer tree trimming, look up the details. They usually mean shaping or seasonal trimming of ornamental trees, which is different from trimming larger trees for health or safety reasons. When possible, look for a licensed expert that specializes in trees and tree health.

Unfortunately, palm tree stumps are one of the most difficult types to remove due to how their roots grow. Unlike other trees, palm tree roots grow horizontally and vertically. Palm tree roots grow as deep as three feet into the ground, although soil and growing conditions could mean they go as far as 50 inches into the earth. 

If you want to be able to repurpose the grass in the area where you removed a stump later, you’ll have to dig quite deep—and perhaps wide—to trim away all the roots.

If executed correctly your tree should survive after being transplanted to a new spot. However, effective transplanting requires six months, careful root pruning, safe transport to the new location, and replanting in prime soil conditions. You’ll also need an appropriately sized root ball for a complete tree transplant. A good rule of thumb is that, for every inch in diameter, your tree’s root ball needs to be around 11 inches. So a tree with a diameter of six inches needs a root ball of approximately 66 inches.

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.
