"I had 6 stumps and an entire large bush pulled out by this company. They hauled off everything and filled in the holes where the stumps and bush had been. They leveled the soil in all areas where they had worked, and there were no ruts left from the machinery they used in the yard at all. I also had Austin, Chayton, and Parker come in and trim all of my trees. They raked up all of the sticks and mulched them along with all of the branches that were trimmed out of the trees. Everything looked great when they were done. I was very pleased with their work on both jobs, and I appreciated the way they made sure that I was completely satisfied with the work they had done. I would not hesitate to recommend them to others."

"Connor went above and beyond. I had a very large tree limb fall and and go through a fence. He came out to give a quote and mentioned he could repair the fence as well. Work was completed in a timely manner and price was very fair. Will definitely recommend to anyone I know looking for tree work!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Cutting down a dead tree is always strongly advisable. Aside from being an eyesore, a dead tree can be extremely hazardous, especially when it’s near people or structures. Even if the tree isn’t near your home, it can still harbor pests and diseases that can potentially spread to nearby plants and homes.

The best time to trim trees is in late fall through winter when the tree has slowed its growing for the year. Cold weather stops insects and fungal growth from attacking a new tree wound. Summer and fall are considered the worst times to trim trees, but it’s permissible in certain scenarios, such as tree disease, damaged branches, or small, aesthetic cuts.

Many gardeners charge an hourly rate for their services, and your total cost will depend on the amount of services and the experience of the gardener. Gardeners with basic experience charge between $20 and $30 per hour, while a more experienced gardener can charge as much as $60 to $88 per hour.

The cost of lawn mowing is about $125, which you might need on a weekly or biweekly basis. However, the cost of soil testing averages about $1,450, which should only be done every three to five years. 

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.

Horticulturist is a broad term for any type of plant and soil expert. An arborist, meanwhile, specializes in all aspects of tree care. You should hire an arborist when you need assistance with tree-related tasks, such as pruning large trees, removing trees, diagnosing a sick tree, or emergency tree services. Horticulturists aren’t qualified to handle those types of tasks.
