"This company is awesome!!! I had a very big tree, that for years companies have come out to trim it only leaving it worse. This tree partly hung over my house and shed. 1 company dropped some on my shed and hit the rain gutters on my house. Chris came to give me an estimate and was able to squeeze me in within 2 weeks. This crew was able to get the tree down, not hit anything, cleaned the yard afterwards. They worked hard all day, and the teamwork was fantastic!! Very professional, down to earth, great people. I am a bit picky, and they exceeded my expectations. For years I worried about this tree and one phone call to Enselys took care of the issue. Do yourself a favor and call them for your Tree service needs."

"Penny from Millsboro These guys are awesome!!! They are excellent at their job. They dropped those tree limbs and tree perfectly, cleaned up the yard afterwards and you would never know they were even here. The whole place looks awesome they did an excellent job and for a reasonable price. They are better than the big named tree companies. If I knew how to submit a video and some pictures I have some... I still try to figure it out. ð ð"

"Crimson Bay did a beautiful job cleaning up my existing landscaping areas. They took out the old stones & washed them. They pulled up the old plastic & leveled out the ground underneath, removed moss from the concrete wall, added a weed deterrent, laid down new landscaping paper, & put the cleaned stones back & added edging. They were professional, polite, & worked diligently. I thought the price was very reasonable. I highly recommend them."

"If you are in Delaware or Maryland and need tree work, I can't say enough good things about Boss Tree Experts. Two super hot days, but they powered through and got it done and cleaned up. Two trees were very close to the house, but no issues. Clean, safe and professional. Well worth the money!"

"workmanship was perfect. Excellent job in removing tree and returning to clean up yard. Good value for the money - excellent equipment and workers were well trained. They need to improve on communications with customer, though. I expected a call or indication of exactly when they would arrive and what they would be doing each day."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Dying trees and even dead trees can spread diseases to other living trees. There are many different types of tree diseases, so it’s essential to address the issue as soon as possible to prevent the disease from spreading to other healthy trees. If the tree cannot be saved and is infected, you need to have it removed to protect the other trees on your property.

Ivy eventually kills trees by restricting its growth, blocking sunlight, absorbing nutrients and water from the soil, and weakening the tree. Trees with ivy are more likely to experience diseases, pests, rot, and fungi growth. When ivy weighs down tree branches, the tree is more likely to break during a storm and cause damage.

Unlike some fruit trees, such as apple, sweet cherry, or pear that require at least two trees for pollination, most peach trees are self-pollinating. This means you can plant just one tree and still expect it to produce fruit, typically within two to four years. For best results, consult with a local landscaper to choose the right peach tree variety for your specific climate, soil type, and yard layout.

It depends on where you live—but in most areas, leaves begin falling in September and continue falling until January or February. Warmer regions, such as Southern states, may see leaves fall a bit later in the calendar year. It also depends on the type of trees in your yard and their maturity. 

It is possible to burn out a tree stump if it is dried out and in an area of your property with a large buffer. Drill holes in the stump and dig around the base so it burns more easily. Then, build a small campfire on top using kindling and firewood. You’ll need enough to keep the fire going for many hours to completely burn out the stump, especially if it’s large. 

Monitor the fire closely to ensure it doesn’t spread, and have a hose on hand if it starts to get out of control. When the fire is out, break apart the burned stump and dig out what’s left of it.  

If this sounds like a good option, learn more about how to burn a tree stump before attempting it, as it does come with risks.
