"At the start, Desi did a great job with my yard. Subsequently, he has been very non-communicative and somewhat rude. He has not been very responsive when I have texted him questions. There were issues with some of the work he was doing so I wanted him to come when I was home. I also wanted him to come on a monthly timeframe. After that, he didn't come at all. I have tried reaching him only to be told to send me my address and he would get back to me. He never did. I don't recommend using their services."

"Brad claims to charge more for higher-quality work, but that was not reflected in my experience. He rescheduled last-minute, showed up unprepared, and asked us for cash because he forgot his wallet. He took 7 hours to mount one TV (crookedly), hang a few photos (some uneven), and install an outlet. He did not finish the job? leaving a second TV and a mirror undone? Yet still charged us $520. I now have to pay someone else to fix everything. I am incredibly disappointed I even gave him a chance. Definitely not the professionalism or quality you would expect from someone with premium pricing. He was suppose to come back to ?fix? what he messed up later because he said he could not work anymore and is too tired. When you make a commitment to doing a job and doing it right you finish the job. I am so disappointed in myself for ever trusting him. He misrepresented his skill set. Please avoid. Although he is a nice man he is sloppy. "

Leaf Removal questions, answered by experts

If the roots are still alive, the dead tree will usually try to put out new shoots. That doesn’t mean the tree will survive or that the dead parts of a tree will come back to life. If parts of the tree have died and turned gray or rotten, nothing will bring them back to life and they need to be safely removed.

Signs include dead branches, growth over structures, diseases, pests, or roots impacting hardscapes.

It depends on whether easiest means fastest or least challenging. If you have limited tools or experience, hollowing with a chisel and hammer is the easiest, although it won’t be the fastest approach. Using a chainsaw is much faster, but it comes with more safety risks, especially if you aren’t used to wielding one.

For small trees, tree removal should take just a couple of hours to complete. Assume that a mid-sized tree will take between four and eight hours, depending on the extent of the equipment required and the health of the tree. Remember to add up to two hours for stump removal. Larger trees could take as long as one or two working days, about eight hours each.

If a disease has attacked and destroyed the roots, then the tree may fall over as soon as it has died or while part of it is still alive. Trees that die with their roots left in place tend to stay standing for much longer, but those roots will decay eventually, allowing gravity to do the rest.
