"Bearco. Tree Service provided exceptional service from start to finish! Their team was incredibly professional, arriving on time for the estimate and the job itself, and clearly explained every step of the tree removal process. They handled the large, difficult trees in my backyard with incredible care, ensuring minimal damage to my property while meticulously cleaning up afterwards. The price was fair and the communication throughout was excellent."

"Angel Oak's service was quick and professional. They cleaned up fallen branches as they went, and cleaned up leftover branches when they were done. My only complaint was that they did not call ahead as they had agreed to do. I asked for a day's notice so that I could coordinate with our neighbors whose drive Angel Oak needed access to. Luckily our one neighbor was home and able to move vehicles out of their drive. Otherwise, I would absolutely hire Angel Oak again and would recommend their service to others."

"I had Allen's Tree Service come out to remove a large tree branch that fell on and into my pool. They had a large crew, and removed the limb quickly. I was impressed with the steps they took to prevent my pool from getting any additional damage. They also skimmed the debris off the pool cover, and their cleanup had the yard looking better than before the branch fell."

"North Country Tree Service arrived on time. Immediately got to work cutting down three larger trees in our back yard. The job was done in three hours. All trees cut down, trees shredded and all debris pickup up and removed. Our grandkids were here and watched them consistently, staff were friendly and kind. Price was reasonable, work superb. Would recommend them for any job. Will use again if needed. Thank you for fantastic service."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Whether you should remove the roots of a dead tree depends on whether they’re damaging nearby areas. For instance, if the roots continue to grow near sidewalks, driveways, or the foundation of your home, they can cause damage. If you want to plant something else in that spot, removing the roots can make it easier for the new tree or plant to grow.

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.

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.

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

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.
