"London and his work partner were phenomenal from start to finish! London runs a very professional business. He was quick to reach out to me and had great communication skills from the initial call, date of free estimate, date of project and updates in between. London is very kind and caring and he and his work partner were very hard workers on a very hot day. The ground under my back porch needed minor grading/resloping. They brought in fresh top soil, then placed landscape cloth on soil, and then spread pea gravel stone on top. Their workmanship was excellent! I can't say enough good things about London's Land Improvements. I would highly recommend them to anyone. I wish they could do every possible service needed because they were that professional and excellent at fulfilling the service I needed. Thanks London!! Keep up the great work!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It enhances property aesthetics, improves tree health, and prevents safety hazards.

It depends on the problem, the affected part of the tree, the risk of the pathogen spreading, and the overall health of your tree. Many diseases, fungal infections, and insect infestations can be successfully treated, especially if the issue is only in a few branches. However, if a disease is too widespread, too severe, too easily spread, or in the roots, the tree will likely need to be removed.

Cutting down a tree next to power lines is never a DIY job, and it’s a good idea to contact your utility company first. In most cases, the utility company will need to take care of any tree problems within 10 to 15 feet of power lines. If you want to remove the tree for aesthetic reasons, hire a pro to do the job. Trying to cut trees near power lines yourself can create many safety hazards, and you could be liable if you inadvertently cause damage to electrical equipment.

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

No, you should never top maple trees. Topping injures the tree and leads to the rapid growth of a weak canopy, which can be hazardous to rooftops and utility lines. Removing the crown can also leave the interior bark vulnerable to sun damage, leading to insects and disease. A topped tree can also reduce property value and permanently damage the appearance of a tree.
