"We asked them to grind out a stump and remove the roots on the top of the lawn. They ground the stump 6-8" below the ground, removed the mulch, were respectful of our property and the neighbors, and did an awesome job. I've already given their name out to neighbors and friends."

"They did great job in 2 days it was a huge old tree. They could not remove the stump because they did not have stump grinder. They were very nice and easy to work with. Fantastic value cleaned up cand removed all the tree and brush. I will hold onto their card we may call them back in the fall for another tree. I would recommend to my friends and family"

"These guys couldn't possibly have done better. When I couldn't get other arborists to even return my messages, Bojan called immediately upon being notifed by HomeAdvisor. He came over the same day to look at the job and took care of it less than a week later. Bojan knows so much about trees. Not just about trimming and removal, but about growth, and seasons to trim (or not), and how to keep trees healthy. Fantastic crew (they even RAN around picking up branches). All were very polite, courteous, and efficient. I already have more work lined up for them. Don't let 'em get away."

"Matt, Johnny, and the whole crew did an outstanding job. They had not completed our project yet when two of our neighbors came over and contracted with them to remove their trees. Matt was able to schedule them following our project and was able to completer all three in one week. They are great to work with, did an outstanding job, and very professional. Call Matt first for your projects. Cindi and Dick Roberts Ankeny, IA"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The best time to transplant a tree is when it is dormant. For many trees, this means either in the fall after the leaves have dropped (around October or November) or in early spring before new growth begins (around March). The ideal timing can depend on the type of tree. Deciduous trees do well when moved in early spring or fall, while evergreens are best transplanted in early spring or late summer. For example, pine trees are best moved in early fall, but maples prefer late fall. Avoid transplanting in winter, as the frozen or hard, cold soil poses a significant risk to the roots and prevents the tree from acclimating properly.

Yes, it’s possible to overwater a newly-planted tree. Daily watering is great for the first few weeks, but it’s important not to go overboard. Excessive watering can lead to various problems, including root rot, fungal diseases, and a lack of root development.

The recovery time for pruning depends on how much you prune, the species of tree, and how well you care for it afterward. All trees grow new wood and often sprout additional branches after pruning. Ideally, trees should recover from normal pruning after one or two years. Heavy pruning or slow-growing trees may take several years to fully recover.

It may not be worth it to rake every leaf in your yard, but it’s necessary to remove the majority of leaves to prevent them from smothering grass growth on your lawn. However, raking leaves isn’t your only option for leaf removal. You can remove leaves easily with a leaf blower or compost or mulch them with your lawn mower to repurpose them to help grow your garden or yard.

It’s not always easy to tell when a tree is dying, although signs like dropping branches and brittle bark can sometimes offer clues. It can also be difficult to know whether a tree is dead or dormant, especially if it’s a deciduous tree. You’ll want to wait until a growth season to get a good idea of a tree’s health. When in doubt, contact an arborist for a consultation.
