"Chris, the owner, was gracious, and very knowleadgable - and top-notch experienced in this line of work. He was trustworthy in handling a huge task as ours - we had two very large trees removed by another company , but the entire stumps were not well done. Therefore, we had to hire a proficient master like Chris to tackle the job. This company is "thumbs up" all the way. I am definitely spreading the word that this is the very top best to deal with. Thank you Chris! ---Mrs. B -"

"I highly recommend hiring Michael for any yardwork you need done. He does excellent work for such a fair price. I hired Michael to level grade a 14' x 14' area for a prefab shed. I can't speak enough about how blown away I am of for the work he did. The attention to detail is next level."

"Within 30 minutes of submitting my info on Home Advisor, I had 3 tree service companies respond, and all 3 came out to give quotes within a day. We chose Southern Tree Service LLC because they offered the most for the most reasonable price. Project included 5 100-foot pine trees and one oak. This tree service is amazing, professional and they had all the tools to do the job with ease. A bucket truck was used for 5 of the trees which were extremely tall and very close to a shed. They tied off branches and lowered them and never touched the shed. The last tree needed a climber because the bucket truck couldn't reach it. It was amazing to watch these guys. Chain saws were well maintained and cut through the trees like butter. They had large trailers for debris and a great Kubota loader to move debris. At the end of the day, a "rake brigade" (about 5 guys with rakes) moved through the area and cleaned everything up. 2 of my neighbors also hired these guys to do some work for them while they were there. The stump grinder guy was a sub-contractor who followed up the next day. We added several stumps to the original 2 that we had contracted and the price was super reasonable. Great guys with excellent tools for large jobs, professional, polite, licensed and insured. I would recommend this company to anyone and we plan to use them in the future for more tree removal."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

The best plan of action for an unhealthy or unsafe tree will depend on its condition. An arborist can recommend whether trimming or removal is the right call for your tree. Preventive tree trimming can keep trees safe and healthy, so make regular tree trimming a part of your yard maintenance plan.

Generally, you should prune around 20% of an apple tree’s growth—and never more than 30%. This means that if you have a severely overgrown tree, it can take a few seasons to prune it back enough to produce the healthiest fruit. 

If you’re dealing with a newly planted or juvenile tree, hold off on pruning beyond the initial shaping. Wait at least a couple of seasons into fruit production since pruning can increase the number of water sprouts and unproductive foliage.

Generally speaking, you’ll want to avoid flush cuts, which are cuts made as extremely close to the trunk or main branch. These cuts can weaken your tree, lower its natural defense mechanisms, and even cause decay. You’ll also want to avoid tree topping, which is the total removal of the leader and upper main branches of a tree. 

Most pros will advise against either of these methods, which is why hiring a pro is often the best choice when it comes to tree trimming.

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

If you don’t trim your palm trees, you can expect several negative outcomes, including:

  • Unhealthy palm trees attract pests, diseases, and fungi 

  • Dead falling fronds can cause severe injury or damage to your home, pedestrians, or cars

  • Dead palm branches are flammable and can catch fire, especially during a lightning storm
