"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!!"

"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."

"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."

"This company did an excellent job on a large project. I had about 10 trees removed and multiple trees trimmed. They were prompt, knowledgeable, professional and courteous and finished the job in 1 day. I had received a quote from another company and they said it would take 3 days and their bid was $3000 higher and wasn't as comprehensive as Southeast Tree proposal. I would recommend them highly to anyone considering tree work."

"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

Costs depend on tree height, trunk diameter, removal complexity, and required equipment.

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.

Licensing requirements for arborists, also known as tree surgeons, vary by state and municipality. Many areas require a license, which often involves specialized education and experience. Even if not mandated, it's wise to hire a licensed professional as they tend to have more experience. Beyond licensing, look for certifications from organizations like the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) or the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA), as this indicates a higher level of expertise. Certified arborists must typically pass a comprehensive exam. Always confirm that the arborist has a business license and is fully insured to protect yourself from liability. Seeking positive recommendations from local homeowners is also a good step in finding a qualified professional.

Make sure the tree roots soak around a day before you dig the tree up for the transplant. Keep the roots wet while the tree is above ground. After the transplant is finished, provide consistent water every day for the first month or so. You don’t want to overwater the tree, but you do want to keep the roots wet so they can thrive in their new environment.

It’s possible to transplant trees as tall as 50 feet when an experienced tree planting service uses the right equipment. However, a tree with a trunk larger than two or three inches in diameter needs to be handled by a professional in order to yield successful transplanting results. Consulting a tree planting professional is the best way to tell if your large tree can be safely transplanted.
