Customers say: Quality work

"Actually had solicited quotes from 2 other companies, not this one. But somehow they also found out about my need for tree removal and showed up 2 days before the other companies with a good price. So I went with them and was pleased that I did. Very professional. Did a wonderful job including cleaning up afterwards. My OCD neighbor (even sweeps the street in front of her house) was so impressed, she asked them to do some work for her as well. which they did the same morning. Definitely, out to please the customer."

"They did a great job getting my trees trimmed and ready for spring. They got me scheduled for a free estimate the same week I reached out and they were able to complete the job fast. I would highly recommend them, they are easy to work with and my trees haven’t looked this good in a long time."

"Very helpful and excellent job done! Fast workers, polite and prompt! I highly recommend Competitive LLC. They removed a huge tree stump from our yard at a lower cost than I could find anywhere. They responded right away to my post for this job and they had already checked out the size of the stump and gave me a price on first contact with me. They were able to do the job right away and I could not have been happier!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Most plum trees are pruned into a vase or open wine glass shape. They’ll have a shorter central leader (the trunk) that supports three to four main branches. Of course, this isn't always the case. If you have a European plum tree, you can grow it in a pyramid shape. Let the central leader extend the length of the tree and prune smaller branches to create the pyramid.

Since each tree is different, it’s impossible to say how long a dead tree can remain on your property. While it could be days, months, or even years, it’s highly likely that, at some point, the tree will fall. In the meantime, dying or dead trees can become a haven for pests, so it’s best to have them removed sooner rather than later.

In the short term, you’ll have a lot of fallen trees to deal with. Tree removal services costs typically start at $200 per tree and increase based on species and size. Then, you’ll have to deal with the loss of trees: That means a loss of shade and a greater risk of rain runoff and erosion. Also, you’ll miss out on the health and aesthetic benefits of having trees on your property, which could even affect the resale value of your home.

That being said, cutting down a tree it’s not always a bad idea. Trees growing too close to rooftops can present fire hazards or debris problems. You may need to remove diseased or dying trees to prevent future issues.

Yes, you should trim the lower branches of your maple tree for safety. Trimming maple trees as they grow helps lift the crown and canopy and trains it to grow straight up. A good rule of thumb is to prune enough branches to leave 6 feet of clearance under the tree.

Burning a tree stump can be effective, but it comes with safety considerations and isn’t always best for every situation. It's essential to check local regulations and assess the safety risks involved. Stumps that are near wooden structures or other non-moveable flammable objects aren’t good candidates for burning due to the risk of the fire spreading. Alternatives like grinding or a DIY stump rotting project might be safer and quicker for getting the job done.
