"Andrew's trees service gave me several options. Decided on having two tall trees and one good size branch (storm damage) removed. Awesome price, work and completed quickly. Cleaned up with no stray branches around. Can't even tell where they did the work, except for the two stumps! Plan on using again in the fall. Highly recommend!"

"First, I chose the category of <Maintain a Lawn,> which is less than they do. Not only do they do that, but they also do the fall and spring cleanup. This is the first and only landscaper we have ever employed. I always took care of my yard and lawn. I am retired.. Now, thanks to them, I donâ t feel stressed about it as they take care of the weekly mowing, cleaning the patio and making everything look amazing. They are exceedingly polite, they have a most incredible work ethic, and they are always there when you need them. I cannot speak highly enough of them. It was very hard for me to let go of my lawn work and they made it possible."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Permits are often required for large tree removals, especially in urban areas or for protected species, ensuring regulation compliance and neighbor safety.

Leaf removal costs between $400 and $1,000 per acre on average. Nationally, the cost of leaf removal averages about $350. Cost factors for this project include lawn size, leaf removal method, tree density, location, and the time required to do the job. If your lawn removal service charges based on lawn size, you can expect to pay $0.02 to $0.10 per square foot.

While there is a lot of debate about whether boiling water is strong enough to kill tree roots, it is not best to remove the roots from large, old trees. You may be able to weaken young roots enough to remove them manually, but boiling water will likely not do the trick for large root systems.

Maple trees start the growing season by developing small groups of red flowers where the tree's fruit, the samaras, will appear in the coming weeks. Later in spring, the samaras, which many call whirlybirds or similar names, develop into single-winged seed carriers that spin when falling or drifting in the wind. 

The safest way to cut down a tree is to make sure you’re completely prepared and have done all the necessary safety checks, including double-checking your equipment is in good working order, you have plenty of clearance to fell the tree, you’re wearing all the safety gear, and you have a partner to help you (who should also be wearing safety gear).
