"I couldn’t be happier with the work Toledo’s LawnCare did at my property. From the moment they arrived, they were professional, hardworking, and incredibly detail-oriented. These two gentlemen went above and beyond anything I expected. They took great pride in their work, paid attention to every detail, and treated my property as if it were their own. It’s rare these days to find people who genuinely care about doing an outstanding job, but that’s exactly what I experienced with Toledo’s LawnCare. The finished results exceeded my expectations, and I would not hesitate to hire them again for future projects. If you’re looking for honest, dependable landscapers who work hard and truly care about customer satisfaction, I highly recommend Toledo’s LawnCare. Five stars all the way!"

"Ok gang, Clutch, the owner of the company, will hooook you up with some seriously professional quality work. It started with him stopping by on a freakin Sunday, no less, for just an estimate. Way to prove you’re interested in people’s business. Next, explain in a ‘non-tree guy’ way how you can help us with our situation. Clutch did a great job communicating what he could do, and why we needed it, and what we wouldn’t need. It was not a high-sell, BS sales pitch. I understood it and I was comfortable knowing I was picking the right guy to help out our situation. If you need a tree removed, you’ll be happy you called these guys. Btw, you’re also supporting a veteran-owned business. Not that it’s a huge factor, but it’s obvious where the owner gets his integrity from."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Your neighbor is not in a good position to know if your trees are truly dead or pose any kind of danger. That’s why hiring an arborist or tree service expert can be such an important part of the process. If the trees are still alive and don’t pose any threat, you’re in the clear (but you may want to document and photograph everything in case events turn sour down the road).

But if a tree is visibly dead and near the property line, you should remove it to be safe. If a dead tree falls on a neighbor’s property, they may have grounds to sue for negligence. If any branches on trees have died, it’s a good idea to cut them back for similar reasons.

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.

For safety reasons, leaning trees are best removed by a professional, as they may often tear away from the hinge, causing you to lose control over where the tree falls. If you choose to cut down a tree leaning slightly, avoid cutting off root protrusions before you start. Make your hinge a little longer than usual by cutting it deeper (up to 30% of the diameter) and applying a wedge into the felling cut on the side the tree is leaning. Stand away from the direction the tree leans while making your felling cut.

Trees naturally want to grow upward, so one may straighten all by itself, though this only comes into play when a tree is leaning just a small amount. For trees growing into an awkward position or those leaning heavily in one direction, the above steps are necessary to ensure the tree gets back on the right path. This also holds true for trees planted in a spot with unstable soil.

If you’re looking to rot a tree stump fast, potassium nitrate will work far quicker than copper nails. First, drill several holes into the stump using a power drill, then pour potassium nitrate pellets into the holes. Next, add water to help the chemical absorb into the wood, thoroughly soaking the stump to ensure the pellets dissolve and spread evenly. Afterward, cover the stump with a tarp to retain moisture and block sunlight, then place mulch on top to secure it in place.
