"The boss and workers were professional and cleaned up their mess of tree branches. They took the two dead trees out easily without having to climb either one. It took them 45 minutes from start to finish and I paid $800. A good deal for Evergreen."

"Hector and his crew did a beautiful job landscaping my yard. I had a concrete patio put in around my pool as well as an outdoor kitchen. I was very pleased with everything he did. He also guaranteed the plants that he installed for several months. Any plant that needed to be replaced because of the heat was replaced without question. His costs were very reasonable. Hector was also the only person I contacted for a quote that actually listened to me about the design I wanted and got it right the first time. He is also very talented when it comes to designing yards. I'm very pleased with everything from the work done, as well as the cost. Hector and his crew were very pleasant and professional to work with. They are very hard workers. I have referred Hector to several friends and neighbors and they all loved him and his work. Anytime I call Hector for additional work or repairs he picks up the phone or gets back to me almost immediately. I canâ t thank him enough for everything."

"Benjamin and his father were great workers. Benjamin designed the layout to perfection and included all of my recommendations. He was timely and finished the project in 4 days. He also allowed me to accompany him to choose specific plants. I would definitely recommend him and I'll use him again. Great job, Benjamin!"

"We recently hired Alex to install new baseboards in our home and I’m extremely pleased with the results. From start to finish, the experience was smooth, professional and hassle-free. He arrived on time, communicated clearly throughout the project and took great care to ensure the installation was precise and clean. Every corner is perfectly aligned and the finishing details look fantastic. He also kept the workspace tidy and was respectful of our home, which I truly appreciated. If you’re looking for someone who delivers quality work with professionalism and reliability, we highly recommend Alex. We will definitely be reaching out to him for future projects."

Customers say: True professional

"We found McCormick home builders through Angie’s list. They were not one of our original contacts, but they contacted us and came out to give us a quote. Matteo was extremely helpful, informative, honest, and gave us reasonable realistic prices, and did not try to inflate the prices or pressure us in anyway. We felt very comfortable with him immediately. We felt like he was a member of the family that we could just talk to and ask questions he was very personable. He gave us his contact number in case we had other questions and he was always available when we needed him for any type of questions or concerns. Mateo‘s team did a beautiful job. They were fast. They were efficient. They cleaned up beautifully. They did a wonderful job. They were very considerate of our time our needs and our neighbors. They were an absolute pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend Matteo from McCormick home builders for any home building projects, and we will be calling him again in the future!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The shepherd’s tree, native to the Kalahari Desert in Africa, holds the record for the deepest known tree roots at over 230 feet deep. Some African communities refer to it as the “Tree of Life” since it provides food, shade, and medicinal properties to the surrounding community.

You can start your search for a reputable arborist online by looking for professionals who hold the proper licensing and are fully insured. Next, read through some online reviews to see what kind of service the expert brings to the table, and confirm that they don’t have a history of complaints with the Better Business Bureau. Finally, you can ask the professional for a list of references and then call them to ask questions about the service, professionalism, value, and more that the expert brings to the table.

The best time to trim trees is in late fall through winter when the tree has slowed its growing for the year. Cold weather stops insects and fungal growth from attacking a new tree wound. Summer and fall are considered the worst times to trim trees, but it’s permissible in certain scenarios, such as tree disease, damaged branches, or small, aesthetic cuts.

If it’s your property, then you can plant a tree near power lines, but it’s not the best idea. Any vegetation that grows within 10 feet or so of power lines will fall under the responsibility of the utility company, and they may trim or remove it as necessary. If you do move forward with your plan, try to choose a smaller ornamental tree, plant it as far away from the power lines as you can, and keep it trimmed to avoid future problems.

In general, trees should be planted no closer than 15 to 20 feet from your foundation. For larger trees with far-reaching roots like maples, oaks, or poplars, a good guide is to plant as many feet from your home as the tree’s height is expected to reach at maturity. Some trees, like elms and willows, should only be planted far from where their roots may encounter sewer or water lines.
