"To summarize for those who don't like to read lengthy reviews, Jay and his team should be your first contact for all projects related to landscaping and lawn care in the Jacksonville area. The process started off with a walk-through so Jay could better understand our vision, end goal, and budget. Not only was he receptive to our ideas, but he also recommended even better alternatives from his years of experience. Once the plan was set, he and his team were communicative and prompt every morning. They worked tirelessly throughout the entire project to make sure the job was done right. The end result was nothing shy of perfection. We've received countless compliments from neighbors, with some even subsequently hiring Jay (and team) because of the quality of work. Needless to say, I would highly recommend Best Tree Service if you're looking for a transformational job that's done right the first time."

"This is the fourth time I’ve used Mitch Drake and sons. And as with the other three times, their work is excellent. The crew is very conscientious about ensuring trees are cut down safely and they never damaged our fence or buildings. This time we had two large damaged/dead trees removed, a stump ground and multiple very large trees trimmed and dressed. When they finish, you wouldn’t have known they were here. The yard was picked clean. I would highly recommend Mitch for your tree service."

"I highly recommend Trifecta Outdoor services and tree removal. Greg was extremely professional. Greg came by the same day I contacted him . He gave me the arborist review, contacted City Hall about removing the dead oak tree for safety factors. He took pictures of the damaged inside of the broken base of the huge Oak tree. He was here in a couple days to remove the tree and stump and did not disrupt my yard or fence at all. The huge job was done at a reasonable price. I can not thank them enough. Sincerely, Diane Cowan"

"William and company did a very good job. Will definitely use him again. His prices are fair. Liked that he is insured and owns his own equipment. He removed a crape myrtle next to my house. Did such a good job, had him come back a few weeks later and trim a Live Oak and large Magnolia. William is personable and cooperative. I highly recommend him."

"Their service is impeccable and impressive! I actually have used them before to take 3 large oak trees down from my home and they did great! I used their services again for my mom’s house for a large magnolia and another tree. Leroy and his crew were always professional. I didn’t have to move not one plant! (I have many plants in containers and they worked around them, not breaking any leaves!). They arrived on time, cleaned up once completed and made sure all gates were closed. Oh and did I say how fair their prices are! I would call on them forever. He is my go to guy for any and all tree service. If you’re looking for this type of service, you MUST contact them. They are top notch THE BEST!"

"Highly skilled team, worked efficiently with synergy and positive energy. Team took great care in avoiding any damage to surrounding landscape and property. Left our property as they found it…clean up was immaculate! They communicated well with email, text and phone calls from proposal to the day work was scheduled. Overall, they were a pleasure to work with, fair in price and professional on every level. Quill’s Tree Service was, by far, the best experience I’ve had with any tree service I’ve worked with. We will be using them again and highly recommend their services."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

While there is a lot of debate about whether boiling water is strong enough to kill tree roots, it is not best to remove the roots from large, old trees. You may be able to weaken young roots enough to remove them manually, but boiling water will likely not do the trick for large root systems.

If you don’t cut down a dead, dying, or diseased tree, it can become a nesting place for pests like mosquitos, bees, beetles, wasps, fly larvae, and more. Some pests will live in the tree, while others will feed off the decaying wood. Unhealthy trees are also more likely to fall over, potentially injuring people and causing damage to your property.

It can be bad to leave a dead stump in the ground. A stump becomes a hefty piece of dead wood in time and eventually (especially with the help of rain) starts to rot. That makes it a locus point for diseases and pesky insects, as well as a bit of an eyesore. It’s best to remove a tree stump completely before it starts to decay, especially before it starts to fall apart. If the tree was removed because of disease, it’s even more important to fully remove the stump if possible.

Most trees can be successfully transplanted while they are young, but pines, walnuts, and some oak tree varieties are more difficult to move because their root systems grow deeper than most other trees. Also, trees adapted to sandy soil with wide root systems like beeches, willows, and aspens are harder to dig out because their roots spread much farther out from the trunk. In these cases, unless the trees are very young and small, it’s a good idea to consult a tree planting professional.

A tree growing close to a house can pose several risks, but removal isn't always the only or best solution. Potential problems include roots growing into the foundation and causing structural cracks, branches damaging the roof or promoting moss growth, and debris clogging gutters, which can lead to water damage. Trees can also provide access for pests and encourage mold. However, a small, healthy tree may not be a problem, and for larger, established trees, strategic trimming can be a cheaper and more beneficial alternative to removal. It is generally recommended to take action for trees within 10 to 20 feet of your home, especially if they are unhealthy or encroaching. Your best bet is to consult a professional arborist who can assess the specific situation and provide expert advice.
