"NOLA tree service did a great job of trimming our oak tree. Jessie listened to what I wanted done and quoted me a price based on what I needed done. They worked quick and cleaned as they went. All the branches and leaves were picked up. I would definitely recommend NOLA tree service to anyone."

"They did an awesome job! I would definitely hire them again. The entire crew was friendly and respectful! They got the job done quickly and did a great job cleaning up my yard once the trees were down. Price was great too! I contacted several tree companies to get quotes before hiring them. Save yourself a lot of time and call them first. Highly recommend!"

"I had a small stump from an orange tree that needed to be removed. I called Hank's stump, grinding, and he came out and removed the stump. And it is perfect, and he did a very extremely excellent job. And if you ever needed a stump removed, make sure you call hank's stump grinding.Because he is an excellent businessman and does the job as perfect as possible."

"Initially I called Aleck for grass cutting at my vacant rental. Following the hurricane I had a tree partially come down in the back yard that was too much of a nuisance for other folks I called. I had called around to get quotes and timlines to have a tree company do some work. The fastest anyone could do it was 3+weeks. Aleck cut my grass, and cleaned up the fallen branches and then was able to coordinate the removal of a big tree and trimming of a second in less than 4 days! His price quotes (grass cutting and tree removal) were cheaper than anyone else I talked to, and he got it done FAST! The interaction I had with him is what I believe Angies list is all about. Aside from the work he has done, i have a new reliable handyman which is invaluable when you have a rental property and live out of state."

"Lawn Peeps did an excellent job with my yard. I had an overgrown hedge that was ruining my fence. Not only did they take care of it for me but they convinced the my neighbor to have her side done so the problem would be eliminated for both our properties. 10/10 service."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Yes, it’s okay to trim low branches on a tree, also known as limbing up or raising the crown. Essentially, you’ll trim the lower third of the tree (trunk) and leave the upper two-thirds of the tree (crown). Arborists recommend trimming 20% of a tree’s leaves per season for two to three seasons. Trimming low branches allows light to flow through the tree, increasing circulation and making the tree stronger and healthier.

Trees don’t usually grow back after being cut down. Some particularly robust tree species may start sending up new stems from a stump to recover, but those stems won’t become a “tree” like before. Generally, trees don’t recover from being entirely cut down, which is why it’s important to be careful when making a decision. When you cut down a tree, it’s a good idea to make plans to remove the stump, even if it’s unlikely to grow back.

For Bradford pears, damage from storms is common, and if the trunk splits, it can pose a danger to people and surrounding structures. The best thing to do in that instance is to have the tree removed. If there’s only minor damage to the branches, pruning away the damaged parts is the first order of business. You may also want to consult a professional arborist to make sure the tree is healthy.

Planting a palm tree close to your home can provide shade while elevating the beauty of your yard. However, there are a few safety concerns to consider before doing so. You’ll want to opt for a smaller tree with a non-invasive root system. Select a species that won’t grow too tall and choose a planting location that won’t damage your home.

Aside from removing dead or diseased branches, you should prune your trees somewhere between every one and three years. Some people—particularly commercial farmers—prune their apple trees yearly to produce higher yields. This is the best way to promote tree health. That said, the average homeowner can get away with hard-pruning their mature apple tree every other year or every three years.
