""I highly recommend this landscaping company! Armando and his team were incredibly quick to respond to my inquiry and provided a very fair quote for the work. The team came out promptly, explained everything they were going to do in detail, and were professional throughout the entire process. I was especially impressed that they sent me pictures of the work before and after, clearly showing the fantastic results. The transformation is amazing!""

"From beginning to end, Tyre's Property Maintenance was professional and accountable. My primary point of contact was Joseph - he came to my property within a few days of me reaching out and was there on time. I then received a detailed scope of work/quote by the end of the day. He was honest, reasonable, and highly knowledgable of the types of plants I would need. On the day of the install, a team came out (on time again!) and did an amazing job of my backyard. They were all polite and professional, and took amazing care of my property. I highly recommend this company for your landscaping design and install needs. Price was more than fair. Work was reliable and quick. I'm loving my updated backyard - the plants look amazing and are just what was needed!"

"I want to thank LimbWakers for trimming the trees last month around my pool cage. I feared the stormy season coming and my pool cage being damaged by tree branches being too close to the cage. They cut all the branches I requested, cut down a dead tree I didn’t ask them to do for free, and even grind six stump all at an unbelievable low cost. They did all the work in two days. I was so impressed I told my sister about them and they did an excellent job on her dead tree also. I placed their name in my contacts and I will definitely call on them again. Great job, guys!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It may not be worth it to rake every leaf in your yard, but it’s necessary to remove the majority of leaves to prevent them from smothering grass growth on your lawn. However, raking leaves isn’t your only option for leaf removal. You can remove leaves easily with a leaf blower or compost or mulch them with your lawn mower to repurpose them to help grow your garden or yard.

Opt for a barefoot tree. Pros harvest barefoot trees when they’re dormant (leafless). They shake the dirt from the root ball and pack it in moist material. 

These trees can cost half as much as the trees at your local nursery, and you can buy them online—so there’s a much wider selection. Just make sure you keep your barefoot tree cool until you’re ready to plant it.

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.

You can use a chainsaw, but it won’t remove the entire stump or root ball and is not a recommended method. It takes quite a bit of physical work to achieve and will likely dull or ruin your chainsaw. Instead, consider using salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, stump grinding, or burning to kill a tree stump. These methods allow you to kill a stump using minimal machinery and physical exertion.

Trimming your palm trees once or twice per year keeps them healthy and robust. Caring for palm trees includes cutting off brown leaves to prevent wildfires and pathway obstruction. However, you don’t want to over-trim the palm tree. Cutting too many branches off will weaken the tree and prevent future growth. And it’s essential to have a strong, healthy palm tree during hurricane season to prevent safety risks or property damage.
