"This crew was amazing. I asked for a quote and John came to my house that day to ask me what I was looking for and provided a quote. He scheduled me that day, and showed up with a crew that worked quickly and effectively. They finished cleaning up my flower beds, adding new mulch, mowing the lawn, trimming some very overgrown hedges, removed a tree stump, and cleaned up leaves/acorns in one day. I was blown away by how nice my yard looked after they were done, and I will definitely be calling them again with any other landscaping/lawn care needs."

"It went really well. Great group of people. Very concerned about not destroying anything. Doing what they could on getting trees out. We really like them. Our insurance check took forever for them to get to the mortgage and get the money. It was about $1400. It took about 6-8 weeks for them to get paid. They were really patient about it which was I very appreciate it. We finally had them paid when we finally got the check."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Whether you should remove the roots of a dead tree depends on whether they’re damaging nearby areas. For instance, if the roots continue to grow near sidewalks, driveways, or the foundation of your home, they can cause damage. If you want to plant something else in that spot, removing the roots can make it easier for the new tree or plant to grow.

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.

You can remove a small tree from your yard if there’s space for the tree to fall, you have the right tools and safety equipment, and you follow a clear plan of action. You’ll just want to follow the steps above carefully, and ideally, you will have experience doing similar tasks. If you have any doubts that you can do this project safely, though, you should hire a pro.

No, you cannot plant a tree above a gas line. Tree roots grow and spread over time and can sometimes dent, crack, or penetrate a gas line. Those same roots may also cause accessibility problems for maintenance or repairs. You can generally plant vegetation with non-invasive root systems, low-growing vegetation, and flower beds near gas lines. 

The best time to trim trees is in late fall through winter when the tree has slowed its growing for the year. Cold weather stops insects and fungal growth from attacking a new tree wound. Summer and fall are considered the worst times to trim trees, but it’s permissible in certain scenarios, such as tree disease, damaged branches, or small, aesthetic cuts.
