"Responded quickly and tree was removed within days. Impressed by equipment which allowed workers to get the job done safely and efficiently inside a fenced townhouse yard. Also had an oak trimmed. Workers were very courteous and allowed me to ask questions regarding the trimming. I'd greatly recommend this company."

"After submitting a request about my project, Terry reached out to me immediately. I was looking for help with my very small useless front yard after I attempted my own design that ended up in a big mess. He came by and looked at the area and was in contact with me while brainstorming some ideas on how he could transform my small area into something that would be low to no maintenance. The crew surpassed expectations. They created more than only curbing for me, they created a complete design and I haven't even put my finishing touches on it and my neighbor's are admiring the work. Contacting Terry was simple and he was honest and easy to work with. He went above and beyond and answered all of my questions. Whether you are looking for someone to help with a large project or a small one, you should give him a call. I was concerned my project would be too small and possibly not worth his time but he made me feel like I was just as important as any other job he had going on. The quality of the work speaks for itself. I highly recommend Curb Appeal for enhacing your outdoor spaces!"

"He was very adequate on getting me a fair price, very well mannered, and was on time or early for everything. He demolished 2 sheds for me and did a very good job. And the cleanup after the demolition was very professional it’s like the sheds were never there! Highly recommend to anybody!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Pruning is an effective way to prevent a diseased branch from infecting the rest of the tree. If the infection isn’t caught early enough and the pathogen has spread to the trunk or the majority of the branches though, it is too late to prune off the affected areas and you’ll likely need to remove the tree.

A chainsaw is the best tool to cut down a tree, but you may also use a handsaw or ax. You may also want to use a lopper or pole saw to remove limbs before cutting down the tree. Wear chainsaw chaps and protective gear, including eyewear and earplugs if you use a chainsaw. Again, if you’re unsure about how to use this tool, this project may be one to skip.

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

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.

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.
