"Arbor pro- Eric Lowry team did a profession job! I would recommend this company to anyone that wanted a very professional & affordable tree services company. It was amazing the great services they provided! I would use them again & again_ Hands down the best I've dealt with!"
"They completed the work efficiently and thoroughly, and left the site clean. I would hire them again and will when the tree in my front yard needs trimming. My contact with the crew was respectful and kept me informed throughout the project."
"They waited for the proper time of year for the oak tree, and did an excellent job trimming that oak tree when the tree was in pretty rough condition. They also did an excellent job on a locust tree that was in a difficult position next to a shed and the neighbor's house and over a chain link fence. Both area's were cleaned up very well after the job was complete. The price was also very competitive."
"They did a great job, provided a timely quote, and completed the project quickly. Great value, great service, good quality work. Clear communication and easy to work with. Our stumps were not too large, so this was a smaller job. Definitely recommend!"
"Clean Scape did an excellent job of 3 tree trimming projects I had here in Marshalltown. Quick response, reasonable pricing , excellent tree work and a nice job of cleaning up when finished. Highly recommend K Hagen"
"Sebastian and Jesus were very knowledgeable, friendly and very helpful giving me a good price would highly recommend FM Tree Service. They are very professional. They cleaned up very well."
"Titan did a magnificent job on my property during the past week. I needed the following done: Grading work on my 3 acre property and three different types of rocks delivered. I also needed additional black dirt brought in to make it perfect.
From start to finish the communication was excellent with Will. He let me know what time they would get to my job and everything that was going on during the work process. This is something that a lot of contractors just fail to do in my past experiences.
They provide top notch equipment, with many different attachments for various types of jobs during the entire process. This ensures that the job is done correctly, the first time!
Lastly, customer service could not be better. They (Will and Tim) stayed with the job until I was completely satisfied. Always keeping a great attitude no matter how many questions I asked. Even going the extra nine yards finishing the job better than I expected."
"I was very pleased with their work . They were professional and kind and worked very hard to complete my landscaping and mowing. They were respectful of me and my property. I am very happy with the mulching of my flowerbeds and new brick borders placed around three young trees in my backyard. Their mowing and trimming was done with care. I recommend them instead of a large commerical company."

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.
Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.
Trees should be pruned every two to five years, depending on its age and type. Young trees should be inspected and pruned every two to three years. Mature trees should be inspected and trimmed every three to five years, and fruit trees should be pruned annually with a careful eye on seasonal growth. Evergreens typically don’t need pruning, unless branches or limbs are damaged, diseased, or harboring pests.
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.
For trimming trees, your best tool is a pair of pruning shears or loppers. Both options work best for branches that are under 3 inches in diameter. Trimming trees with a larger diameter may require a robust tool like a small chainsaw or a handsaw, so take into account your tree’s diameter when deciding between tools.
In nature, there are many things that can cause a tree to die, including diseases, insects, and natural disasters such as fires or droughts. Non-natural methods of killing a tree include herbicides or manual intervention, such as cutting it down. Consult a tree removal professional about your options for naturally killing a tree.
