"If you are like me and have an extremely hard time finding someone to help you with some projects around the house your search is over! if you are looking for a great handyman in the area I highly recommend golden hammer remodel! Kevin went above and beyond and Delivered high quality work. My husband and I will definitely be using him again for some of our future projects that we plan to undertake. He is an extremely respectful and great guy to work with. he helped us assemble a good amount of patio furniture including two fire pit tables and he will be back for some other projects. I could not recommend him more, if I can give more than a 5 star I would!"

"I had a great experience working with this company and especially with Melissa. I needed a large hole in my backyard filled in, and Melissa made the entire process smooth and stress-free. She was extremely responsive, answered all my questions quickly, and coordinated everything perfectly. The dirt delivery was right on time, and the work was done exactly as promised. If I need any help in the future, I’ll definitely be reaching out to Melissa again—she's fantastic to work with!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Not every arborist climbs trees, but most will do so if that’s the best method for assessing or treating a tree. Arborists have a variety of tree climbing gear and safety equipment to choose from when climbing trees. Consult your local arborist about their tree-climbing plan if your service requires that type of task.

You should plant trees at least 15 to 20 feet away from your house, and more if the tree will grow large and spread its limbs. Trees pose several dangers to houses when planted too close. They can litter the roof with leaves and branches, create fire hazards, make a ladder for larger pests, and even damage the foundation as their roots grow.

Most experts recommend removing a tree that has sustained more than 25% loss in the limbs, trunk, or circumference of the bark. Doing an initial trimming of damaged and dangling branches, but then waiting a few days of monitoring to decide how much more you might need to cut can help you better assess the total damage to the tree. However, consulting a tree maintenance pro to make this determination the best course of action before removing a tree.

Generally, avoid trimming trees in the summer (with the exception of pruning fruit trees as needed). Trees use a lot of energy in the summer, most of which is relegated to new growth. If you chop it too early, you could stunt the next season's growth. Again, when in doubt, do some research based on the specific tree type.

Bleach can potentially kill some types of delicate ornamental trees, but for the most part, it will only kill the foliage it comes in contact with. Applying bleach is not an effective method of killing a tree. A better option is to use an herbicide, which is a chemical compound designed to effectively kill a tree.
