"M&N Stump Grinding and Small Tree Services is now OUR tree service people. We switched tree services because we were tired of replacing sprinkler heads, turf and cleaning up after theycleaned up. M&N was unbelievably good. It was amazing to have a service with such professionalism along with the quality of work. They did an amazing job of cleaning up afterward. Like I said, they are now our go to for all our trees. So thankful we went with them. Shout out to M&N - your good, very good!"

"These guys were great from start (bidding) to finish (clean up). Prompt, courteous, professional and significantly less expensive than other companies. They took down two very big trees in difficult locations close to the house. Definitely recommend."

"These guys were excellent. Daniel is very communicative and so helpful for the fencing process. We got our fence well under price compared to other companies and was installed within 1 week of signing the contract. Will be reaching out for more landscaping and recommending to anyone looking for similar work!"

"A. P. took down a very large and dangerous ash tree branch. It was obvious to the arborist, Angel, that the branch would snap back on the cutter if not done properly. He safely brought it to the ground. We are so pleased with A. P.â s prompt and professional service, we hired them to remove a tree stump in the front yard. Weâ re very confident A. P. will do an excellent job. Also, they will call utilitiesâ marking for us. This company knows itâ s business!"

"James is very knowledgeable about trees and how to properly trim and thin out large trees like I have on my property. He and his partner did a very nice job on my trees! They did a thorough clean up even though it was raining before they finished up. Very courteous and I will definitely recommend Arborist Prime to friends and family. Thumbs Up!!!"

"Prompt response and able to do the project the same day and cleaned up everything including old branches at the end of the project. Might have taken a bit more off the branches than I’d like, but I’m no arborist and they certainly removed all the dead/non-leaf branches at a great price."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally, you do not have the right to take fruit from a neighbor's tree, even if the branches overhang your property. The fruit is considered the property of the tree's owner. While you may have the right to trim branches that cross into your yard, the fruit on them typically still belongs to your neighbor. However, laws can vary by state and municipality. In some areas, branches that extend into your yard or trees that straddle a property line may entitle you to some of the fruit. The best course of action is to speak with your neighbor, as they may be happy to share. If a conversation is not possible, check your local regulations before picking any fruit.

You can shape a cherry tree by trimming vertical branches, dense branches, and intersecting branches. Your personal aesthetic comes into play, as well. If you want to simply thin and shape the tree, you can get away with trimming the aforementioned parts of your cherry tree. If you want to shorten branches, however, consider thinning cuts, which alter the length of the branches while encouraging light penetration, new buds and shoots, and a structurally-sound shape.

The best time to prune Japanese flowering cherry trees depends on where you live and the type of flowering cherry tree. Some trees benefit from being pruned toward the end of winter or early spring, after the last freeze. Meanwhile, other trees do well after blooming, in late spring or early summer. Avoid pruning your flowering cherry tree in the early winter, as this encourages open wounds that can lead to infections or infestations. 

All of the tree root removal methods mentioned above are effective on any kind of root, whether it’s still growing or simply needs a gentle nudge to finish decomposing. The only difference is that larger roots tend to be harder to remove and may require multiple chemical treatments as well as manual labor to eradicate.

Usually, trees cannot grow back after their stump has been ground, but some very hearty types of trees can. For example, if you have a black locust or Redford pear, the grinding will need to go deep to prevent them from growing back. Ask your tree service or stump removal expert whether your tree can resprout after its stump is ground down.
