"Drive way was compacted and over grown with grass, weeds, and allowing water into the garage. Had a hill on one side of the house lower against the foundation, getting water in basement. Needed a patio to replace the rotted deck and allow my dog run. Did a great job, hired to rejuvenate and gravel driveway which looks awesome, remove hill along side of house place dirt against house and leave a swell between property to not cause an issue for my neighbor, much dryer in the basement, removed what was left of my rotted deck to put in a patio sloped away from the house. Was too hot for me but they showed up and got everything done quicker than I thought it would be. Very happy I was able to hire them"

"I reached out on a Sunday afternoon, got a phone call within 30 minutes, and came to my house 1 hr later to give me a price. We agreed, scheduled the job, took down 2 trees, several branches from other trees 4 days later. 3 days later got a phone call asking if we'd like them to come over then, the came over in the early afternoon, worked until dark. Came back the next day, cut the 2 trees down, cut all the wood up, loaded up and disposed of all the branches. Then they used rakes to clean the yard, and used a blower to clean the driveway. One thing that really impressed me is that before they cut down the tree, you see the owner in, he knocked on our door to make sure that once the tree came down, if any of the branches encroached on the neighbour's yard for the short time they would need to clean it up did we think that was ok. Who thinks of things like this? Took 1 1/2 days, 3 workers, complete, neat job, was concerned about leaving no debris. Have already refered him."

"After being ghosted by several "established" tree companies in Central Iowa I found online, I went to HomeAdvisor to find someone who would actually do the work after coming put to put in a bid on removing my dead ash tree. These guys fron E&H Maintenance called me and came out 2 days later to take a look at my tree. They gave me a reasonable bid and came by 6 days later to do the work. Just two very capable young men who worked hard and got most the tree down in one day, even having to work around multiple power lines and dealing with limbs hanging over my house. The next day they came back to cut down the rest of the trunk and they thoroughly cleaned everything up when they were finished. They did an amazing job with less equipment and with only two guys for about the same price the larger companies had quoted me. I would highly recommend skipping those tree companies who have websites and non-responsive office staff who may quote you a bid but will never bother to return your calls or come out when promised, and go with these two hard-working entrepreneurs. You'll be glad you worked with them, I guarantee it!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Trees are beneficial to the environment and wildlife. If you have an old tree, but it’s healthy, it may be best to avoid cutting it down. However, if it’s showing signs of bug infestation, disease, or is potentially hazardous, then you should contact a tree removal company to cut it down. 

If you are unsure whether you should have it removed or not, then speak with an arborist to determine what is best.

The lifespan of a bird's nest depends on the species. The building process can take from two days to three weeks. Once built, the nesting period for baby birds can last from two to ten weeks before they leave the nest. While most young birds are ready in two to six weeks, some predatory species may need up to two and a half months. Some species nest four to five times per year, so a nest could remain in use for several months. For specific information about a particular nest's longevity, it is best to consult a wildlife professional.

Since summer is a busy time for tree companies, the cheapest time of year to remove a tree is during the winter. February and March are typically the prime time to hire a tree removal pro, and some homeowners living in colder climates can save around 20% off services. It depends on location and the company, but you can always shop around for the best deal.

Trimming a tree can take anywhere from just two hours to a full day, depending on the age of the tree, the number of trees, and the species. Young trees are generally easier to trim, as their branches are often thinner in diameter and easier to reach compared to mature trees. They also tend to be healthier. If you haven’t trimmed your trees before or it’s been a while, the process could take even longer.

If you don’t stake a tree that needs support, it could be at greater risk of being damaged or failing completely, whether it uproots or falls over. That could cause damage to your property or other surrounding trees. If you want to grow healthy trees, you may need to stake them for best results.
