"I needed invasive vines and poison ivy removed from areas around my property.Matt went over the whole job with me and explained the way he would do it and assured me about the safety of his method. He even noticed something that needed to be be treated on a magnolia in my yard. He arrived the next day and did the job quickly and thoroughly. Hi price was more than fair. The fact that he was a licensed arborist and had other certifications was doubly ressuring."

"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!"

Customers say: Quality work

"Don was very pleasant to work with and was easy to contact. He was available on weekends to discuss the job and various options, and then I felt comfortable with him going to the property at a later date. They have a wide array of machine options so can handle a lot of jobs."

"Reis Tree work is a landscaping company that performs many different things and has helped me over the years with tree work, planting, mulching and general landscaping. The team was very professional and cleaned up the areas very nicely. For tree work that was done, all logs were nicely stacked where you asked them to put them. Highly recommend"

"I 100% recommend this company for all your tree work needs! Josh and his crew showed up bright and early on the day we had agreed on and did an absolutely awesome job in one day! Mind you our tree was enormous but they did everything with amazing skill and left everything completely clean afterwards. Very reasonable price too! We’re very pleased."

"Excellent experience. The lead guy (Nathan Timberman) was very friendly, efficient, and helpful. On the day they did the work, the crew showed up on time, clearly know exactly what they were doing, and completed the job very quickly. Every member of the crew was also fluent in English, which nowadays is a big plus."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Professionals use assessments, strategic cuts, specialized equipment, and safety measures to ensure healthy growth or the safe removal of trees or shrubs.

Generally, you’ll want to avoid pruning more than 25% of the tree’s canopy at one time. While pruning your tree is important, it’s possible to do it too often or to go too far. Again, this is why hiring a tree trimming pro to do the work is wise. However, if you do decide to DIY, going slow and trimming gradually is the name of the game.

Any cutting of tree roots can hurt or kill a tree, which is why it's recommended you don’t do it unless the roots are damaging or invasive on a nearby structure like your home. You should never cut more than 15 percent of above-ground tree roots at one time. If you have any questions about cutting tree roots, contact your local arborist.

Yes, healthy and well-placed large trees can boost property value by an average of 3% to 15%. They improve curb appeal, offer energy savings through shade and wind protection, and are often considered by appraisers during home valuation. On the flip side, removing dead or hazardous trees can also increase value by eliminating safety risks. For the biggest return, choose low-maintenance, native species that thrive in your climate.

Pruning trees during the summer can be a bad idea because the new growth will take place during the hottest months of the year, which can stress your tree out. Similarly, pruning during the early fall can be a bad idea, too, because you’d be stimulating new growth when most trees are aiming to go dormant. 

Pruning recommendations will vary by the type of tree, but generally, waiting until winter to prune your trees is a good idea.
