"I recently hired Woodland Tree Service to remove a dead tree from my backyard, and I am extremely satisfied with the service. Donnie was able to beat the price of another company and also did an excellent job. He was able to take down the tree the same day! I would highly recommend Woodland Tree Service to anyone in need of tree removal. Donnie’s professionalism and affordable pricing make them a top choice in the area. Thank you for a job well done!"

"ACE Tree Service is the absolute best. I will use them again and recommend them to anyone. First Zach came to give me the quote the same day I called. He was very helpful and a pleasure to meet. He gave me a very fair price so I signed up to have them do the work. A few days or so later, Tim and his crew came to cut the beast and other things. They did a beautiful job. Cutting down my granddaddy pine tree, trimming another tree and cutting smaller ones. Cleaned my yard very well. Today, in less than 24 hours of being cut down the pickup crew arrived to carry off the debris. They too did a spectacular job. No trace of the trees and branches. Iâ m very impressed with the quality job they have done."

"I had a gas line installed at my house and asked them about sump grinding. They said Matthew & Joey Tree Service and several other companies.  I went in and checked Angies List and they were 1st on the list of two. Called them, they were here in less than 10 minutes, gave me a good price and the stump was gone. Total time from being told about them to job finished was about 30 minutes. Can't beat that. Fast, good job, good price. I'll use them again.

"Arbor Tek did an outstanding job taking down a large oak tree from my yard. I would certainly recommend them. They are professional and completed the job for the most reasonable price around. They were a lifesaver when other companies gave me quotes to do the job for a much higher price. They cleaned up the grounds and the roof. I am very satisfied with their tree service. I highly recommend them."

"If I could give more than five stars, I 100% would. My husband and I bought this house knowing we would need a lot of help in the backyard because of the trash and debris in it. Zach went above and beyond in every way. He was very informative from the get-go and was very open and honest with me about what was needing to be done. He has transformed my backyard into something that I don’t look at and cringe and hate into something that I actually want to spend time in. I can’t wait to actually be out in my yard and not see the trash and the debris and everything in my yard. When I saw my yard after Zach was done I almost cried because of how much he did for me. I cannot thank him enough. I cannot recommend him enough. If I ever have to have someone come out and do anything to my yard, tree removal or anything, Zach 100% be my first call. Thank you, Zach for everything that you and your team did and giving me my yard back."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

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.

DIY pruning is possible for small trees and shrubs with basic tools. However, for larger trees, more hazardous removals, or to ensure proper pruning techniques are used, it is recommended to hire a professional for safety.

You’ll want to have your palm trees trimmed during the spring, ideally in May, before hurricane season sets in, which generally takes place during the late summer. Palm trees grow fastest over the summer months. You’ll also want to trim your palm trees when you notice:

  • Brown fronds 

  • Dry leaves

  • Flower pods

  • Fruit

  • Fronds overgrown in power lines

  • Frond encroaching upon your neighbor’s home or yard 

  • Visible damage from a storm

The depth of tree roots depends on the species. Trees like oaks and maples can have root systems that grow down 20 feet or more. However, trees that grow in shallow soils will have roots that go only a few feet down. Research how your tree species grows in your climate area to estimate root depth.

There are several methods to hollow out a tree stump, and the best one depends on your tools, experience, and priorities. Common methods include using a chisel and hammer, a chainsaw, or burning.

  • Chisel and Hammer: This is often considered the easiest approach for those with limited tools or experience, though it is the most time-consuming.

  • Chainsaw: Using a chainsaw is the fastest method, but it comes with significant safety risks, especially for inexperienced users.

  • Burning: This can be an effective method, but it is not recommended unless you can first drill holes into the stump. Without holes, the stump will be difficult to light and may not burn completely through.

A power drill with at least a ⅜-inch diameter bit can make the job quicker and easier, regardless of the primary method. While you can use a chisel or chainsaw without a drill, it will require more time and effort. Always wear protective goggles and thick gloves, as splinters are an inevitable risk.
