"The Thorntonâ s were very professional. They called first to let me know they were on the way to evaluate the work. They gave me two options on just the work and then an option on stump grinding and clean up. The Thorntonâ s were very knowledgeable on their craftsmanship and reasonably on their prices. Very Nice customer service! I would recommend them to anyone who would need their services of tree cutting, stump grinding,and clearing a field!ð"

"Darnel has a father and son team. He provided good customer communication throughout the process. He was on time and did a great job removing tree debris. Darnel and his son worked 2 hours straight and charged a fair price. I definitely would hire again."

"My husband and I choose K&B Lawn and Landscaping after reading the great customer reviews. The fact that this is a Veteran, Woman owned company, was a plus! We requested a quote, K&B returned our call within an hour. Byron was able to come by the same day. We discussed what we wanted (2 baby trees transplanted, bushes relocated, mulch, weed barrier fabric, and plants in front) and our budget. There was great rapport with Bryon. We felt comfortable asking questions and bouncing around ideas. On the big day, the K&B team (Byron, David, Derrian, and Justin) texted us when they were on the way. The team was on time, professional, and friendly. They communicated throughout the process. They also educated us on how to maintain our new landscaping and trees. The K&B team love what they do and they exceed expectations! I mentioned we had a problem with feral cats defecating in our yard, so they brought beautiful plants that also deter cats. Their consideration and great work ethic doesn’t stop there! We had an area BEHIND our fence that was overgrown with weeds that we didn’t ask nor expect them to clean up, but they did anyway! They also cleaned once they finished the job, including my driveway. Talk about great customer service and professionalism! Its rare to encounter a company that cares about their work and their customers. Hiring K&B was a great decision. They are talented, professional, and friendly. Neighbors have stopped by to comment on how beautiful our landscaping is. We cannot express how much we love our yard now. We will definitely hire K&B for all our lawn and landscaping needs. I’ve already referred them to family. Thank you K&B Lawn and Landscaping!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Pruning trees during the summer can be a bad idea because the new growth will take place during the hottest months of the year, which can stress your tree out. Similarly, pruning during the early fall can be a bad idea, too, because you’d be stimulating new growth when most trees are aiming to go dormant. 

Pruning recommendations will vary by the type of tree, but generally, waiting until winter to prune your trees is a good idea.

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.

Transplanting a palm tree is a similar process except for a couple of important differences. First, their root ball doesn’t need to be as large as a “true” tree, which makes them a bit easier to dig up and move around. Second, they struggle more with taking root and staying upright in a new location, so it’s important to give them extra support when staking. 

Generally, you’ll want to avoid pruning more than 25% of the tree’s canopy at one time. While pruning your tree is important, it’s possible to do it too often or to go too far. Again, this is why hiring a tree trimming pro to do the work is wise. However, if you do decide to DIY, going slow and trimming gradually is the name of the game.

While there is a lot of debate about whether boiling water is strong enough to kill tree roots, it is not best to remove the roots from large, old trees. You may be able to weaken young roots enough to remove them manually, but boiling water will likely not do the trick for large root systems.
