"They were very professional from the beginning until the end.  Mr. Broussard came by at the pre-arranged time to survey the trees and give me an estimate.  On the day of the service, he personally supervised the entire process.  When finished, all of the debris was picked up and hauled away.  I would recommend Billy Broussard to anyone.

"Kevin Carter is the best lawncare consultant and worker I ever interviewed. His knowledge of trees and "junk" hanging on my fence was inspirational and he and his crew did what was requested and more! My yard can now breathe! He and his crew were respectful, very thorough, and they went through the yard like a tornado and were through with it completely in a short period of time. I can't thank them enough for such a good job."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

It takes anywhere from three to seven years for a stump to decompose on its own. This timeframe can depend on the kind of tree and your climate. The lower to the ground the stump is, the faster it rots. If you kill a tree stump with salt, boiling water, herbicide, light deprivation, or burning, the tree stump decomposes faster. 

Tree removal can be quite expensive, especially for larger projects, but you can use the following tips to help keep costs down:

  • Do the yard cleanup afterward yourself

  • Choose to leave the logs on your property and split them yourself

  • Opt to leave the stump in the ground and tackle stump grinding yourself

  • Pull permits for tree removal, if necessary, to avoid fines

  • Pay to have multiple trees removed at once

  • Remove tree in the late winter or early spring during off-season

There are four common ways to prune a tree correctly: crown thinning, crown reduction, crown raising, and crown cleaning. The method you choose depends on the purpose of pruning. However, making the correct cuts is a vital part of the process, regardless of your method. Pruning incorrectly can damage or even kill the tree. So, you may want to hire a professional tree-trimming company to tackle the task. 

The costs vary from $250 to $5,000 per tree, depending on the size, complexity of the trimming, and labor.

Generally speaking, you’ll want to avoid flush cuts, which are cuts made as extremely close to the trunk or main branch. These cuts can weaken your tree, lower its natural defense mechanisms, and even cause decay. You’ll also want to avoid tree topping, which is the total removal of the leader and upper main branches of a tree. 

Most pros will advise against either of these methods, which is why hiring a pro is often the best choice when it comes to tree trimming.
