"Busy Bee Tree and Stump Care removed a large pine tree in front of our house. They had a very professional and respectful crew. They did their job proficiently and thoroughly. I would definitely hire them again for future work we will be doing at our house."

"I couldn’t be happier with the work done by Edge & Ivy! They completely transformed my yard and did it all for an amazing price that beat every other quote I received. The team was professional, efficient, and clearly knew exactly what they were doing. They showed up on time, communicated every step of the process, and left everything looking spotless! My yard looks better than it ever has, and I’ve already gotten compliments from neighbors. Highly recommend to anyone looking for reliable outdoor work without breaking the bank!"

"We had no idea what we wanted to do with our backyard. All we knew was that we wanted it to be low maintenance and look better than what it was. We met and discussed option I didn't want sod and not just rocks out back, so after taking a couple of days to decide, we went with Chris and Tree of Life Lanscaping. Chris was the foreman overseeing multiple jobs and was the main contact person. He was quick to return my calls and texts during the project. We made several changes during the project, and Chris and his crew were flexible and handled the changes without any issues. Chris and his crew delivered as promised"

"I don’t normally do reviews, either good or bad, but I feel compelled to do a review for Jason and Amy. The reason is that they did such a great job in the repainting of our trim in our 27 year old home. They were meticulous during the job, not only in the painting, but also in preparing and protecting our home. You would never regret having this couple do any painting for you."

"Ben arrived on time and went right to work. He was very polite and did a great job removing 4 Juniper Shrubs and trimming 2 Blue Spruce Trees up 6 feet. He also removed a small Pine Tree and hauled everything away. We would highly recommend Ben."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

Though summer is not ideal, you can do some light pruning during this time of year. Just make sure it’s not excessive. Vigorous pruning will stress the tree and impact next year’s growth. Generally, August to September are the best summer-pruning months, particularly for fruit trees.

It takes anywhere from three to seven years for a stump to decompose on its own. This timeframe can depend on the kind of tree and your climate. The lower to the ground the stump is, the faster it rots. If you kill a tree stump with salt, boiling water, herbicide, light deprivation, or burning, the tree stump decomposes faster. 

Leaf removal costs between $400 and $1,000 per acre on average. Nationally, the cost of leaf removal averages about $350. Cost factors for this project include lawn size, leaf removal method, tree density, location, and the time required to do the job. If your lawn removal service charges based on lawn size, you can expect to pay $0.02 to $0.10 per square foot.

Your local government is usually in charge of pruning trees on public property, and the power company is responsible for trees near power lines (even if they’re on your property). Whether or not they top these trees depends on their approach to pruning. You won’t be able to do much to control this, but you can contact them to find out more about their pruning process.
