"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.

"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

Pruning trees during the summer can be a bad idea because the new growth will take place during the hottest months of the year, which can stress your tree out. Similarly, pruning during the early fall can be a bad idea, too, because you’d be stimulating new growth when most trees are aiming to go dormant. 

Pruning recommendations will vary by the type of tree, but generally, waiting until winter to prune your trees is a good idea.

You can use the formula mentioned earlier to calculate the depth of tree roots. Each inch of width of a tree trunk translates to six inches of depth within the root system. Large trees extend anywhere from 2 to 6 feet into the ground, with some magnificent specimens going even deeper.

You can start your search for a reputable arborist online by looking for professionals who hold the proper licensing and are fully insured. Next, read through some online reviews to see what kind of service the expert brings to the table, and confirm that they don’t have a history of complaints with the Better Business Bureau. Finally, you can ask the professional for a list of references and then call them to ask questions about the service, professionalism, value, and more that the expert brings to the table.

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.

Generally, you should prune around 20% of an apple tree’s growth—and never more than 30%. This means that if you have a severely overgrown tree, it can take a few seasons to prune it back enough to produce the healthiest fruit. 

If you’re dealing with a newly planted or juvenile tree, hold off on pruning beyond the initial shaping. Wait at least a couple of seasons into fruit production since pruning can increase the number of water sprouts and unproductive foliage.
