"Outstanding service from H&H Stump Grinding. They came out and gave us a very fair estimate and upon agreeing on a price to stump grind 6 stumps they were able to fit us into their schedule quickly. The work they performed met all our expectations and they cleaned up everything. Without hesitation I would highly recommend H&H Stump Grinding. I would recommend calling them directly vrs filling out the home advisor form, so they as a contractor donâ t have the pay the lead fee. I have already recommended them to a few of my neighbors!"

"Organic Enlightenment is definitely the company you want to reach out to for all of your tree servicing needs, They have the equipment for every job. These guys are so professional and hard-working. They were here on one of the hottest days of the year and they never stopped. The owner checked all of my trees carefully and planned his work with an eye for symmetry and design. One of the trees was the first tree I ever learned to climb as a kid, and it still holds lots of sentimental value for me. I didn't want to lose a lot of shade, and it turned out so much better than I had hoped. All of the branches over the house were cut and cleared, leaving plenty of shade to cool the house. I love driving home now and seeing my trees as I come down the street, they look beautiful! And clean-up? Life they were never even here! My yard was spotless! I have never been more pleased with a contractor and would certainly use them again and recommend them highly!"

"This was an excellent decision. We had a huge tree on our side yard that would drop branches every time it was windy. We needed to get rid of it. They were always communicative letting us know all the steps. They got rid of the tree, stump and all roots for a great price in one day and they left the yard ready for some landscaping. The experience was great and I would highly, without any hesitation, recommend this company to get the job done."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

For Bradford pears, damage from storms is common, and if the trunk splits, it can pose a danger to people and surrounding structures. The best thing to do in that instance is to have the tree removed. If there’s only minor damage to the branches, pruning away the damaged parts is the first order of business. You may also want to consult a professional arborist to make sure the tree is healthy.

If a tree isn’t pruned, it can inhibit proper growth and fruit production, cause damage to both the tree and your property, and create entry points for pests and diseases. Pruning a tree enhances its stability, appearance, shape, and growth. Pruning trees regularly can also save you money long-term by avoiding overgrown or dangerous dying trees.

A tree branch should start to form roots in about three months. It can take about a year for a tree branch to develop roots strong enough to go in the ground. For best results, start several branches because, no matter how closely you follow instructions, they won’t all form roots. Compost any that aren’t thriving.

You can remove a small tree from your yard if there’s space for the tree to fall, you have the right tools and safety equipment, and you follow a clear plan of action. You’ll just want to follow the steps above carefully, and ideally, you will have experience doing similar tasks. If you have any doubts that you can do this project safely, though, you should hire a pro.

A tree growing close to a house can pose several risks, but removal isn't always the only or best solution. Potential problems include roots growing into the foundation and causing structural cracks, branches damaging the roof or promoting moss growth, and debris clogging gutters, which can lead to water damage. Trees can also provide access for pests and encourage mold. However, a small, healthy tree may not be a problem, and for larger, established trees, strategic trimming can be a cheaper and more beneficial alternative to removal. It is generally recommended to take action for trees within 10 to 20 feet of your home, especially if they are unhealthy or encroaching. Your best bet is to consult a professional arborist who can assess the specific situation and provide expert advice.
