"Billy Broussard was professional from start to finish.  Billy did the cutting and trimming himself, while his crew cleared the debris from our yard.  I wanted the stumps ground and debris cleared for a future flower bed.   Billy made arrangements for another server to come in and complete the job to our satisfaction.  Working with Billy was definitely hassle free and completed in a timely manner.  I would highly recommend his service.

"Black Widow Outdoor Services exceeded my expectations. If punctuality, professionalism, courtesy and attention to detail is important to you, Black Widow should be your choice. They did such an amazing job for me that I hired them for a second job. The worksite was even immaculately clean when they left. They are truly a 5 star company. This small business will not be small for long..."

"I'm EXCEPTIONALLY satisfied with the work performed by Perrodin's Lawn Service.  I found this company on Angie's List and gave them a call.  I live in Virginia and needed work done in Opelousas, La.  I texted pictures of the work that I needed to get completed and was quoted a price over the phone.  Within a few days they went out to the job site and gave me a final quote and began to complete the job.  I must say that not only did this company do a GREAT job but their customer service is outstanding.  Working with this company provided a PHENOMENAL experience.  This is a TOP NOTCH company and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this company to anyone needing work in their work coverage area.  Admirable work with outstanding customer service.  No other company can compare to the QUALITY this company provides their customers.

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

You can never truly stop a maple tree from growing taller, but you can rein in its growth by pruning. Proper pruning helps maintain a safe size for your tree without causing permanent damage. It’s important to start pruning a tree while it’s young, long before it becomes a problem. Otherwise, you may be left with too many hazardous branches to remove at once.

While there is a lot of debate about whether boiling water is strong enough to kill tree roots, it is not best to remove the roots from large, old trees. You may be able to weaken young roots enough to remove them manually, but boiling water will likely not do the trick for large root systems.

Sometimes, knowing when you need tree-trimming services is straightforward, and other times, you have to do some investigating. Some tell-tale signs that you should have your tree trimmed include:

  • A poorly-formed tree with unruly branches, which makes the tree appear odd-shaped. 

  • A tree with tall or large branches that interfere with power lines or your home’s exterior.

  • A tree that provides too much shade in the yard due to branch overgrowth.

No, you should never top maple trees. Topping injures the tree and leads to the rapid growth of a weak canopy, which can be hazardous to rooftops and utility lines. Removing the crown can also leave the interior bark vulnerable to sun damage, leading to insects and disease. A topped tree can also reduce property value and permanently damage the appearance of a tree.

The fastest ways to remove a tree stump are by grinding it or burning it.

Stump grinding is often the quickest method, with professionals able to chip away a stump and its roots within a single session. You have the option to hire a professional stump removal service or rent a stump grinder to do it yourself. However, it's important to note that these machines can be large, difficult to transport, and dangerous to operate without prior experience. For safety reasons, hiring a local arborist or landscape specialist is often recommended.

Burning is another fast option. Before you begin, check your local burn laws. The process involves drilling holes into the stump, filling them with vegetable oil, and waiting 24 to 48 hours. Afterward, you can add charcoal bricks to the surface and light the fire, which must be attended at all times.

For a more affordable but much slower alternative, you can use potassium nitrate pellets to accelerate the natural decomposition process. This method typically takes four to six months.
