"I caught Donnie when he was doing the neighbors fence and asked him to quote what he would charge for a 12' fence with a 4' gate that would match the neighboring fence. He gave me the bid and said he could do it in tandem with the neighbors fence. I accepted and could not be happier. I expected to have to await my turn in line after previous bids, but they did it at the same time. My family is very happy since we have grandkids and granddogs that will benefit being able to be in the backyard. Oh, and they also cleaned out some old vines and brush that I did not even ask them to do. I only gave 5 stars because you cannot give any more."

"Tyler did an excellent job Spring cleaning my landscaping beds! Mulch removal and replacement, cutting pampas grass, trimming bushes and plants. He repaired and replaced broken sprinkler heads as well. He communicated when he would be there and how long the job would take and followed up the day before to confirm. Great job at a fair price! Will definitely be contacting Complete Home Landscaping for future work and projects!"

"When I first contacted solar installers, they asked for two items: address of my property a digital copy of my utility bill From my address they can survey the property using Google Maps. They use the satellite view to assess whether I have enough area on my roof to install an adequate number of solar panels, and whether the roof is unobstructed most of the day (by other buildings, trees, etc). Using my electric bill, they can assess my monthly payment and electricity usage. Once they size a system for me, they can then estimate my monthly savings. If this savings meets or exceeds the payment I will make for financing the solar panels, they consider the project to be economically worthwhile, and move forward with a proposal. Once a proposal was ready a sales rep from our installer visited my home, told us what we could expect and asked us to sign papers. Once signed, they were able to schedule installation, which was completed in under two months. The financing we signed was designed to avoid out-of-pocket costs. Payments were waived for the first three months, anticipating that the solar panels would not be ready before then. We were allowed to hold the full balance for up to 15 months, then the finance company expected a large payment approximately equal to the federal tax credit. Then monthly payments would continue to apply to both interest and principal, with the intent that monthly payments would not exceed the savings in electric power. It was structured as a 15-year loan, although we paid ours in full after 2 years, since the interest rate was fairly high (nearly 6%). On installation day a crew of 4 men arrived with a truck. They prepared my roof for mounting hardware, dug a trench for electrical conduit (needed for DC wiring from my detached garage), mounted the power inverter on the outside wall of my home, installed panels, wired up everything and tested. The whole installation needed about six hours to complete. Post installation, the company scheduled a city inspection. An electrical inspection and building inspection were both needed to verify the installation complied with building codes. The last step was for our electrical company to visit, test the system, install a new power meter, and begin our net metering service. In our state, we are credited for excess power that flows into the grid at the same rate as power we use from the grid. So we pay only for the “net” power we use (this is commonly known as “net metering”). Our monthly utility bill shows our inflow, outflow, how much we pay for our net usage (if any), or if we generate excess power for the month, how much we bank for later use. In the first full year, the system generated about 5,000 kWh of electricity, worth about $750 at typical electrical rates in our region. We paid $20k for the system, of which a third was refunded to us on our federal taxes (applying a credit for new solar generation capacity), so we financed around $13k. It would take 17 years to break even, assuming the system does not lose efficiency. However the solar panels add to the home’s value, so we would probably replace much of our investment if we choose to sell the home in 5–10 years. At our latitude, winter days are short (about 8 hours at the solstice) and the sun is at a lower angle in the sky, limiting daily generation to about 8 kWh when sunny. But in the summer, our days are nearly 16 hours, and we see close to 30 kWh generated on a sunny day. Fortunately peak generation also corresponds to our peak usage (due to air conditioning) so we pay little electricity in summer months. Here is a monthly breakdown I estimated for 2018 based on actual meter readings: In May we had an excess of power (before the days became hot enough for A/C). September was our peak usage. Our electricity costs for the year were under $600. In summary: Was the project a financial slam-dunk? Not really. In the long term it will pay for itself, but the savings are not enormous. Would we do it again? Absolutely, it feels good to have clean, renewable power at home, that we can generate ourselves, and be at least partly free from the electrical grid."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The best time to prune Japanese flowering cherry trees depends on where you live and the type of flowering cherry tree. Some trees benefit from being pruned toward the end of winter or early spring, after the last freeze. Meanwhile, other trees do well after blooming, in late spring or early summer. Avoid pruning your flowering cherry tree in the early winter, as this encourages open wounds that can lead to infections or infestations. 

Tree removal costs typically don’t include stump removal, as that technically falls into a different service. The company you hire may offer the service for an additional fee; ask them if they offer it to ensure you get the best tree stump removal costs possible.

No. Most of the time, suckers are only a sign that the tree is experiencing stress. However, they can also be the canary in the coal mine, letting you know that something else is stressing your tree. If you have lots of suckers on your tree, calling in an arborist or a tree care expert is always a good call to determine the cause and develop a solution that de-stresses your tree.

On average, tree removal costs around $750, with a typical range between $200 and $2,000. The final price depends on several factors, including the tree's height, trunk diameter, species, and overall health. Accessibility is also a key factor; costs will be higher if the tree is in a hard-to-reach area or located near structures like power lines or your home. Additional costs may apply for services such as stump removal (which can add $100 to $150), log-splitting, debris cleanup, and obtaining necessary permits. It is also customary to tip the professional, usually between $20 and $100.

The ideal time to prune a tree depends on the type of tree. Typically, late winter or early spring is a good time to prune but isn't always the case for "towering trees." It's best to trim when trees are dormant and before blooms appear but can vary depending on the tree type. It's always best to research the type of tree or ask a professional tree trimmer to determine when is the perfect time to prune your tree.
