"Great job! Removed two tall Magnolia trees and a huge Poplar Tree, all way too close to my house. Trimmed other trees and cleaned up my yard afterwards of all the tree branches and tree trunks. I would recommend Frank and his crew to take care of their tree problems. "Thanks Guys!" Phyllis Dahlonega, Ga"

"Silver Axe Tree Experts showed up when they told me they would be here. They were polite and professional. They made short work of removing 6 trees and trimming one large tree. After they were done they cleaned up the area - it looked better than before they got here. I would definitely refer them to anyone needing tree work"

"Jaime Alvarez and his crew at Silver Axe Tree Services did an excellent job of tree removal of several large trees. Jaime is a certified tree arborist, walked our property with my husband, and gave recommendations as to tree removal or not. The Silver Axe crew also ground stumps and trimmed branches on our remaining trees. They were punctual, professional, and did a great job cleaning up. They removed several large trees close to our power line. I highly recommend them for tree services."

"The salesman (David) was an arborist and I gained some really helpful information about my trees. The crew was fascinating to watch, so quick, so precise. They were friendly and cleaned up the surrounding area meticulously, very mindful of my yard. Very reasonable price. Provided the insurance proof I needed. I highly, highly recommend Southeast Trees."

"Excellent work today. Very pleased with their service and their price. They cut down two 90 foot trees and did so very carefully so as not to damage a big cedar that was right in between. Excellent job. It was interesting to watch them all move so methodically. They know what they are doing! Cleaned up beautifully afterwards. Very patient with me as I asked them to trim some limbs off surrounding trees. Also trimmed some super tall bushes in my yard and some neighbors’ trees that were hanging over my property. Even went to a neighbor‘s home and did some work for them as well today - neighbor was also very pleased with their work and price. Pricing is extremely reasonable. Reliable and professional. Highly recommend this company."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Not all evergreen conifers need to be pruned, but some do. Pruning pine trees is not necessary, but you can do so during June and July if you wish. On the other hand, spruce, firs, and junipers do need to be pruned from late winter to early spring.

The ideal depth of a tree notch depends on the tree, but it should usually be between 20% and 25% of the tree’s depth. However, if the tree is leaning towards the direction of the notch, it can be cut more shallowly—at as little as 10% of the depth. When the tree is leaning away from the direction it needs to be felled, you can cut deeper, closer to 30%.

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.

Coverage varies quite a bit by policy, but most homeowners' insurance policies will cover $500 to $1,000 of the cost of removing a tree. Additionally, if your tree causes damage to your property, like your house, many policies will cover some or all of the costs to repair the damage, depending on why the tree fell.

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.
