"They arrived and went straight to work removing 2 palm trees. I went inside for a moment with the intension of returning to watch them work and both trees were gone. Albert moved the stump grinder into position and removed the second stump. They moved all the grindings, stumps, etc. swept the paved areas and blew off the dust. Great Job."

"I had 4 big oak trees that had to come out and fencing that I didn't want destroyed. These guys got the trees out and never touched the fence. They hauled the debris and raked up the small stuff to take. Trimmed up other oaks to make mowing easy. Prices go with the market but I really think they went over the top."

Small jobs welcome

"I used Shawn at SouthState for underbrush clearing, tree removal, mulching, and general land cleanup on my 5-acre property in Oakes Estates. He transformed what looked like a dense forest into something that resembles a national park. I've hired other companies for similar projects in the past, but Shawn's work truly stood out. First, when he says he'll be there, he shows up—a quality that's harder to find than it should be. Second, SouthState uses top-of-the-line equipment, which makes a noticeable difference in both the quality and efficiency of the work. What impressed me most, however, was Shawn's knowledge and willingness to walk me through the pros and cons of the different service options. He helped me understand that the cheapest option isn't always the best value. Spending a little more to have the job done correctly the first time can save a lot of money and frustration compared to hiring someone later to fix another contractor's mistakes. Highly recommended"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Often, it’s the homeowner’s responsibility to handle the aftermath when a neighbor’s tree falls on their property. But if a tree has been obviously dead for a significant period of time and caused damage when it fell, a case can be made that the owner should have removed it, especially if the neighbor wrote you a letter about the tree or asked you to take it down. This can be grounds for a successful lawsuit in claims court and is a good reason to always pay attention to your trees and remove dead trees before they fall.

You can use the formula mentioned earlier to calculate the depth of tree roots. Each inch of width of a tree trunk translates to six inches of depth within the root system. Large trees extend anywhere from 2 to 6 feet into the ground, with some magnificent specimens going even deeper.

Ideally, you’ll have a good enough relationship with your neighbors that you can kindly mention this task in regular conversation. However, every neighbor (and neighborhood) is different. Your best bet will always be to ask directly and nicely, offering to contribute to the tree trimming efforts if you’d like. However, if you are bothered by the tree and your neighbor is unwilling to cut it, you can involve the help of the homeowners’ association or local authorities, if applicable.

While the trees in your backyard are good for the environment and look beautiful, they could present a danger to your home under the wrong circumstances. This task is typically beyond the capabilities of the average homeowner due to its dangerous nature, so it’s best to leave this task to a professional. In some cities, it’s even illegal to remove a tree yourself.
