"We recently hired DC tree service to remove several trees, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. The crew and owner Daelon was professional, courteous, and arrived exactly on time as promised. Communication throughout the entire process was clear and responsive, which made everything easy and stress-free. What impressed us most was the cleanup after the job was completed. Not only was our yard left in great condition, but it actually looked cleaner and more organized than before they arrived. Every bit of debris, leaves, and branches was completely cleared away. If you’re looking for a reliable, professional, and hardworking tree service, I would highly recommend them."

"HBLLC provided amazing service. Fairly priced, hard working, conscientious and above all caring, they were a delight to work with, and I would surely hire them again. - I had concerns about wildlife, they allayed my fears - Previous estimates said I would have to take down my fence, HB did not have to -I had concerns about my largest tree, they handled it expertly What I valued the most though, was their kindness and responsiveness to me as a person, not just as a customer. Great work. Thank you Hubbard Brothers & Co!"

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

Pruning can impact cold hardiness—but it’s less about the exact temperature and more about temperature variation. Generally, you don’t want to prune trees when there’s a risk of temperatures suddenly dropping from 50 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit to 0 degrees Fahrenheit or below. A tree is most sensitive until 48 hours after it’s pruned.

You will know that an oak tree needs to be removed when you see vertical cracks or dead branch stubs, which indicate internal decay. Other signs include trunk rot near the base of the tree and sprouts or small branches coming from the trunk.

If you’re looking to rot a tree stump fast, potassium nitrate will work far quicker than copper nails. First, drill several holes into the stump using a power drill, then pour potassium nitrate pellets into the holes. Next, add water to help the chemical absorb into the wood, thoroughly soaking the stump to ensure the pellets dissolve and spread evenly. Afterward, cover the stump with a tarp to retain moisture and block sunlight, then place mulch on top to secure it in place.

If tree branches cross well into your property line, in many cases, these branches become part of your property, and you can trim them up until your neighbor’s property line. However, this issue will vary based on local ordinances, so you should do your research before making any decisions. Better yet, speak with your neighbor about how to handle any tree issues. 

If you don’t mind the branches, you can leave them be, but if they’re becoming a hazard, it’s definitely worth having a conversation.

Most experts recommend removing a tree that has sustained more than 25% loss in the limbs, trunk, or circumference of the bark. Doing an initial trimming of damaged and dangling branches, but then waiting a few days of monitoring to decide how much more you might need to cut can help you better assess the total damage to the tree. However, consulting a tree maintenance pro to make this determination the best course of action before removing a tree.
