"The guys were great. Very professional and nice. They explained the service and walked me through afterwards. They cleaned up and even took some sticks I had gathered by another tree that I will hire you all to work on. Thanks for your company's quick reply and completion of service."

"These guys came out, gave me an estimate and I accepted the estimate! The next morning they were on site removing my trees safely and efficiently! They removed a total of 12 trees for me and it was an amazing job done each time. Great customer service and just an overall great experience!"

"We had two mature maple trees in our backyard close to our house that needed to come down. Randy gave us a great quote and Matt showed up with his team at 9am on a Saturday and did a fantastic job removing both trees in one day. They even removed the roots that had surfaced in the yard, and ground out the stumps. They were professional, friendly, and took the time to make sure the yard looked nice when finished. They even took a leaf blower to our patio. We would definitely hire them again."

"Excellent service and professional crew. The results were exactly as described in proposal. The final outcome solved my drainage issue. Every time I get hard rains, the drainage project performs and expected. The price was a bit higher than most other contractors, but the final job is worth it, you get what you pay for. Thanks. John P."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

There are four common ways to prune a tree correctly: crown thinning, crown reduction, crown raising, and crown cleaning. The method you choose depends on the purpose of pruning. However, making the correct cuts is a vital part of the process, regardless of your method. Pruning incorrectly can damage or even kill the tree. So, you may want to hire a professional tree-trimming company to tackle the task. 

If you want to take your tree-planting hobby beyond your outdoor space, here are a few great ways to do it:

  • Encourage your neighbors to participate in the Arbor Day Foundation’s Tree City USA program, which has a four-step framework that helps communities grow and maintain their own tree cover.

  • Support businesses that plant trees. 

  • Lobby your local government to plant more trees around your community.

  • Donate to a tree-planting charity.

Bleach can potentially kill some types of delicate ornamental trees, but for the most part, it will only kill the foliage it comes in contact with. Applying bleach is not an effective method of killing a tree. A better option is to use an herbicide, which is a chemical compound designed to effectively kill a tree. 

Planting trees far enough from your foundation will protect your home from root damage, but if you’re dealing with existing trees, you can still guard against roots. Root barriers form a physical boundary that will prevent roots from encroaching on your foundation and can help save you from expensive foundation repair costs.
