"This company was awesome! Another company wanted twice as much to do the same job. They came and cut down my 40ft black walnut tree without issue. They also did a great job trimming my pine trees in my front yard. If you want a fair price professional tree service, hire these guys!"

"Rob and Dave at Elite are extremely professional and knowledgeable. We had 3 foot weeds growing in the roof gutters in front of our house. They set up a date and time, and showed up when they said they would be here. Cleaned all our gutters, including 2nd story, without damaging the roof. Our old gutter guards had worn out and they recommended replacement with stainless steel, fine mesh, lifetime warranteed guards. Again, they showed up on time and completed the job. They were very professional, and careful with my steep roof as not to damage it. I highly recommend their services."

"A&R landscaping & junk removal did a phenomenal job on a big overgrown cleanup we needed done , the job was completed within days of getting a quote. It was years of overgrown trees and shrubs that needed to be cut down as well as gutters that were completely filled with dirt and weeds! The property didn’t look to appealing but that definitely changed when A&R got to work!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

While the fastest way to kill a tree is to simply cut it down, there are several other methods to choose from. You should hire a professional tree removal service to cut down a tree to ensure your personal and property safety. Some slower but effective options include treating or grinding the tree stump or using a basal bark treatment. 

If you’re wondering whether you can plant a tree where the stump was removed, know that the soil conditions won’t be ideal, so you should avoid it. The soil beneath the previous tree will likely be depleted of nutrients, plus there may be roots left behind that will seriously hinder the growth of a new tree. Also, if you use salt or other chemical solutions to kill the stump, these can linger in the soil for months or even years and prevent healthy growth. It’s best to choose a different spot that’s at least three feet away for a new tree, or wait at least a year and thoroughly amend the soil before you plant.

Although the terms tree trimming and tree pruning are used interchangeably, they are very different types of tree maintenance. Tree trimming involves enhancing the appearance of your tree by removing unruly branches, providing your tree with ample sunlight and nutrients and prevents unsightly overgrowth. 

Tree pruning helps keep your trees disease-free. This process removes unhealthy growths, dead branches, and other unhealthy parts of the tree. It’s more common for deciduous and ornamental trees but not so common for evergreen trees. To determine which method you need, discuss it with a tree trimming specialist.

You can use a felling ax to chop down a tree by following the same prep and steps as a chainsaw, but be prepared to use some muscle. For trees bigger than 7 inches in diameter, it can take some time and serious strength to cut down a tree using just an ax. 

Sometimes, knowing when you need tree-trimming services is straightforward, and other times, you have to do some investigating. Some tell-tale signs that you should have your tree trimmed include:

  • A poorly-formed tree with unruly branches, which makes the tree appear odd-shaped. 

  • A tree with tall or large branches that interfere with power lines or your home’s exterior.

  • A tree that provides too much shade in the yard due to branch overgrowth.
