"Quality work done by professionals who care about their customers. Our yard was cleaner after they removed several 60' - 80' diseased trees than it was before they started. They took extra care to fall the trees without damaging our home, fence, or yard. Any divots that did occur were filled with dirt & compacted. We have used SRO several times and have never been disappointed about the work or the price. We trust this company with all of our tree removal. It is a site to watch them do their job.! Everyone has a position in the project and they all work hard & smart. They communicate well and show up on time. If you want the logs left for fire wood, they stack everything neatly wherever you want it. I'd give them 10 stars if I could!!"

We look forward to building a lasting relationship and guarantee your satisfaction!

"We asked, on several occasions, to NOT spew wet newly mowed grass up onto our deck, fence, and grandchildrenâ s swing set. Instead we asked for the backyard to be push mowed, and, on two occasions last (2023) they did push mow it and it was fine. This year they continued to mow early in the morning when the grass was still wet with dew, they spewed it up onto the Trex deck and we would then have to spend literally hours cleaning it off because once it dried it would stick! They are still mowing for the neighbor and they are still spewing into the outside of our fence. Abel has always been cordial on the phone but we had to stop their services. I feel bad leaving this review as we have been using Abel for years but the Trex deck is new this past fall and they simply wonâ t stop with the problem."

"I needed a tree trimmed that had several dead limbs on it. Including one long branch that extended over our fence near the neighbors house. They quickly and safely trimmed down the branches and removed all the branches off both properties. They even found some other branches they were showing problems and asked to clean those out as well. Overall everyone I interacted with was very courteous and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend them and definitely will use them in the future. "

"Really disappointed in the entire experience with grounds quality lawn. Starting with just initiating the job, it took nearly a month to get responses from them and get someone out to start work. I only stuck with it at that point because a family friend said they were good but should have gone with my gut and found another company at that point. The guys they sent were constantly taking breaks and at one point the foreman even grabbed my fishing pole and spent about 30 min fishing while the remaining four watched him. This wouldn't have bothered me as much if the rate I was paying was more reasonable but they were charging me about $600 per hour for the 5 guys so these breaks and fishing sessions were costing me a lot of money. I voiced my concern with the project manager who just made excuses and cared not at all about what was going on. I asked to speak to owner Justin grounds who did the same. Just excused the behavior and had no problem with it whatsoever. All the while no one could explain why the hourly rate was so high when the guys were working so inefficiently. They kept saying the hourly rate was $60 per hour per crew member but charging me double that with no explanation. Not sure if I was just unlucky or if the company is getting complacent and resting on their reputation but I was very unimpressed and I am generally very easy going with these things and rarely complain about having bad service from anyone."

Leaf Removal questions, answered by experts

In most cases, hiring a tree surgeon or arborist is very often worth the investment. Arborists have education and certifications that standard tree removal companies usually don’t, leading to overall better and more professional service. Tree removal is safer with an arborist, especially if the tree you’re taking down is diseased or infested. Stump grinding is done to a safe depth that won’t cause your lawn to collapse over time, and other services are all backed by greater experience and expertise. If you want truly expert-level service, opt for an arborist.

No. Rock salt and similar concoctions use sodium chloride. It may be great sprinkled on your roasted potatoes, but plants don’t like it at all and in large amounts it will poison the soil. So while standard salt will dry out a tree, it will kill everything else nearby and cause other problems. The confusion is due to the word “salt” being an old catch-term for any dry chemical mixture.

Tree roots are hearty and complex systems, so they don’t die immediately after the rest of the tree is removed. If you leave the root system in place, it takes anywhere from two to seven years for it to run out of nutrients. It is worth noting, however, that the roots stop growing and expanding after cutting down the rest of the tree.

The cost to buy a stump grinder can fall anywhere between $1,450 and $19,800, with the majority of models priced below $3,000. However, grinders designed for construction or extensive commercial use might exceed $100,000 in cost. Prices vary based on the type of grinder, the brand, features, and other factors.

The best tools for tree removal include a chainsaw for large trees, an ax for notching and cutting down small trees, and a wedge to help control the direction a tree falls in. A hatchet can be useful for very small trees, but won’t be effective for medium to large trees.
