"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"

"For the second time in a few days Silver Axe once again proved to be the best!! A freak tree fall damaged some other under story foliage in the process. Your crew once more came for a preliminary look, got me a good quote, came back as promised [twice!!] until the trees were removed, the area picked up, and everything was gone through the grinder. Capable, courteous, committed employees ensured that the job was done to my satisfaction. Looking forward to next time!!"

"The free estimate from Northside Tree Pros was quick and straightforward, and I never felt pressured to add services I didn’t need. The crew was fast, professional, and had the job done with my yard cleaned up in no time. I work in arboriculture and green space management, so I’m pretty particular about tree work, and because of that, there wasn’t another company I even considered for my own yard. Highly recommend, and thanks to the whole team!"

"The crew from Silver Axe Tree Experts did a great jog pruning limbs on several tall mature trees on my property. They also removed a tree in my front yard that was leaning out over the street. They took great care to avoid damage to my house and power lines while working in tight spaces. I was impressed with their expertise and teamwork."

"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."

"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."

"I have to say, Greg & his team were phenomenal. They took out 40+ red tips for us (I think it ended up being 45) in ONE day. It was incredible. Great work, great team, and great price. I'd hands-down recommend using him. We'll definitely be using him again (we live in a wooded lot) and have already been recommending him & his team to our neighbors and friends.
Really, stop looking / price shopping here and call Greg / Little Bear Tree Service. His prices are great, he's extremely professional, and timely. We had that good of an experience with using him & his company.
(I should note - I realize this sounds like an overly glowing review. It's actually our real experience and we'd definitely hire them again. We've used other tree services in the past, and I was/still am just really impressed by Greg and his crew)
(Other side note - we did get them some cold waters/gatorades as it was a lot of work. They really appreciated it!! I'd suggest doing the same as it's hot out there! They did our work in late July!)

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It’s not as common for Dutch elm disease to affect other types of trees, especially if the surrounding trees aren’t elms. However, it is possible for DED to spread to other trees, particularly in northern states, like Minnesota. In fact, it’s a good idea to use geography to identify wood and determine which types of trees are in your yard. 

Unfortunately, the complex and shallow root system of elm trees makes surrounding elm trees particularly vulnerable to DED. Early discovery is key!

Trimming your palm trees once or twice per year keeps them healthy and robust. Caring for palm trees includes cutting off brown leaves to prevent wildfires and pathway obstruction. However, you don’t want to over-trim the palm tree. Cutting too many branches off will weaken the tree and prevent future growth. And it’s essential to have a strong, healthy palm tree during hurricane season to prevent safety risks or property damage.

No. Topping a tree refers to severely cutting down all its major branches and tree in a straight line. It was once recommended for streetside deciduous trees but has fallen out of practice. Topping leads to many problems, removing so much of the tree that many trees struggle to survive and become much more vulnerable to insects and diseases. Also, it doesn’t really help tree growth as once assumed and often leads to an ugly appearance of many sprouting stems in competition to become new main branches.

It will take you anywhere from 15 minutes to two hours per tree stump to grind and remove the stump from the ground. The larger the size, the longer it will take to remove the stump. Also, keep in mind that rocky soil may require local excavation services to loosen up large boulders before you can begin to remove the tree stump.

Getting a tree pro with the right experience can be the difference between your transplanted tree surviving or not. When hiring a local tree transplanting and removal service, follow up on references, check their portfolio, ask for a breakdown of the costs, and get proof of liability and workers’ compensation insurance. 

Also, look for companies certified by the International Society of Arboriculture or registered with the Tree Care Industry Association and make sure they have an appropriate state or city license.
