"Totally recommend this company, they trimmed a large tree and also removed debris from another tree that went down in a windstorm a week earlier. The tree trimmers were great especially the man that climbed the tree and did the trimming, but the real reason for the 5 stars was the cleanup guys John and Steven who worked so hard and left my yard looking immaculate. Real nice crew, polite, respectful, and hard workers. Thanks to all especially John and Steven. Shelley Rudnick"

"It could not have gone better! Tony and his crew arrived basically when they told us they would. They had all the necessary equipment with them (strictly professional grade) and the crew of two started to work right away. The tree was about 30 feet tall, in our front yard and fairly close to the house so we were concerned about damage so we watched the whole process. Our neighbors have had 4-5 trees removed in the past couple of years and, after seeing that work, we knew not to use any of those contractors -and we knew what to watch out for.
This crew was A-1 professional all the way. Some of the limbs were removed after they climbed in the tree and the rest (the ones near the house and a valuable holly tree) were taken down using the large and quot;cherry-pickerand quot; on the big truck. We were very impressed with the whole process.
They also ground-out the stump and the roots and their big machine made fast work of it. They even and quot;dugand quot; a hole for us where we will have an replacement tree installed soon. Most amazing of all, these fellas were able to grind up ALL of the tree except for a few very large pieces from the trunk. Amazing machine! As a result, there was little mess and they cleaned everything up very thoroughly before they left. Tony came by to inspect the work and he and his crew helped us spread topsoil and grass seed over the spot where the ash tree stood. This was a plesant surprise -and much appreciated!
They did a very professional job and we will call them first if we ever need tree service again.

"The owner of the company came to my house the day after I called in to look at the tree work I needed done and had an estimate bat to me the next day. I got scheduled the next week trees were removed and debris cleaned up. Excellent customer service, I would recommend Hardline to my family and friends."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

While the fastest way to kill a tree is to simply cut it down, there are several other methods to choose from. You should hire a professional tree removal service to cut down a tree to ensure your personal and property safety. Some slower but effective options include treating or grinding the tree stump or using a basal bark treatment. 

Getting a tree pro with the right experience can be the difference between your transplanted tree surviving or not. When hiring a local tree transplanting and removal service, follow up on references, check their portfolio, ask for a breakdown of the costs, and get proof of liability and workers’ compensation insurance. 

Also, look for companies certified by the International Society of Arboriculture or registered with the Tree Care Industry Association and make sure they have an appropriate state or city license.

Talking with a septic pro before planting trees near your tank is best to ensure the roots won’t interfere with your septic system. However, there is an easy way to figure out where to plant a tree—but you’ll need to know how tall it can get when it’s fully grown. For instance, if the tree can reach 50 feet, plant it at least 50 feet from your septic system.

Large, established tree branches won’t grow roots, but if you find a young tree branch that’s less than about a year old, you’ve got a shot. Put it in water or soil as soon as possible for best results. You’ll know the branch is viable if it’s about the thickness of a pencil and has some leaves or needles.

Opt for a barefoot tree. Pros harvest barefoot trees when they’re dormant (leafless). They shake the dirt from the root ball and pack it in moist material. 

These trees can cost half as much as the trees at your local nursery, and you can buy them online—so there’s a much wider selection. Just make sure you keep your barefoot tree cool until you’re ready to plant it.
