"They did a great job. I would hire them out every time I needed a tree put in or a tree taken out or for any landscaping they were very respectable. They did an awesome job."
"Robert did an excellent job on my landscaping project. Not only did he do plantings for me but replaced my irrigation system and new lines throughout the yard. He had to replace several water pipes too. I would highly recommend his services."
"L&M did a excelent job. the crew was great. my wife and I are very happy with the front yard now. We have had friends comment on how our yard looks.... I would recommend L&M to everyone..."
"I already had gotten 3 quotes for the same work at 265, 250 and 300 and each one needed at least a week to get to the job. I called Angel and I happened to get him while on a job near my house so I think my response might have been better because of that. He showed up in half an hour gave me a quote for 200 and I hired him. He did the job that day and I am extremely happy. He trimmed a palm I hadn't even asked him to do and they did some weeding also not requested. They cleaned up everything even the leaves behind my pool waterfall. Great job, the guys were professional and the price was great."
"David Milligan knows his craft. He clearly understood our requirements and quickly provided an estimate. A fair and reasonable price was ageed to. The work was able to be scheduled quickly and on a Saturday so that we had no other scheduling conflicts. The end result was exactly as we had requested and intended."
Make sure the tree roots soak around a day before you dig the tree up for the transplant. Keep the roots wet while the tree is above ground. After the transplant is finished, provide consistent water every day for the first month or so. You don’t want to overwater the tree, but you do want to keep the roots wet so they can thrive in their new environment.
Depending on the severity of the damage, a tree might continue healing for years after a split or a break. Saplings can usually bounce back in the spring in one or two seasons, but larger trees might take a few years to regain their former strength. If your tree is showing strong growth and is not dropping limbs, you can consider it healed after the first two seasons.
There are several signs that may indicate a tree needs to be cut down. These include visible damage to the trunk or branches, a hollow trunk, extensive storm damage, or a significant lean to one side. Other warning signs are pest infestations or the tree growing too close to a house, power lines, or other structures. It is best to hire a professional arborist to inspect the tree, as they can determine if it can be saved or if removal is necessary.
You can remove a small tree from your yard if there’s space for the tree to fall, you have the right tools and safety equipment, and you follow a clear plan of action. You’ll just want to follow the steps above carefully, and ideally, you will have experience doing similar tasks. If you have any doubts that you can do this project safely, though, you should hire a pro.
An unsafe tree can cause serious damage to your home and property, so tree inspections are important to ensure your home isn’t in danger from a nearby tree. Unhealthy trees can also be unsafe trees, as diseases and insect damage can compromise a tree’s stability, leading to potential damage and safety risks.
