"These guys were very responsive with a really quick turnaround time. They came out and cut down three dead trees and removed 4 stumps. They were in and out within a couple hours. They were very professional and left the work area neat and clean. I would definitely refer them to others as well as hire them again."

"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."

"I live on a corner lot and the plants had become overgrown. I hired Noah to dig up 2 beds of Iris and replace them with azaleas. He trimmed my magnolia tree and pruned other bushes. He also repaired my irrigation system and replaced the downspout and put a drainage pop-up.he also removed all old mulch and put down fresh cypress mulch. Noah and his crew did a fantastic job. He did everything he quoted me to do and they did it in record time!! I already have plans to call him early next year for sod and lawn work. Noah was very knowledgeable and very easy to work with. He gets my A+!!"

"We had a wonderful experience with Brian Tubre, owner of Ring Tree Service. Brian came first and evaluated our job and provided a detailed invoice for the service. He is very involved in the entire removal and we had several hours to speak during the project. His knowledge and confidence were excellent. The price for the service was very fair. I would not hesitate to have them back for another removal and would gladly recommend Ring for people needing a tree or trees removed."

"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."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

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 may be looking to identify maple trees to use for home improvement projects. In that case, you can tell hard maples by looking at their leaves. Leaves will have a U-shaped dip, or sinus, between the points, or lobes, of the leaves. Leaves of soft maples tend to have V-shaped sinuses.

If you already have the cut wood in front of you, look for a light, uniform color to identify hard maple wood and check for variations of red, gray, or brown streaks and an overall darker color in soft maple wood.

Completely topping a plum tree is a risky business. Cut too much, and you’ll kill your tree. That said, you do need to trim the top of your tree to encourage bushy growth, maintain your tree’s vase shape, and limit size. 

A plum tree's central leader (or trunk) should never extend more than 3 feet above the highest branch. When you first plant your tree, cut the central leader so it’s 2 to 3 feet tall. As it grows, cut it back 12 to 20 inches until it reaches its desired height. Never prune more than one-third of the new growth.

No, homeowners insurance typically does not cover the cost of removing a dead, sick, or rotting tree that is still standing. Insurance is designed to protect against sudden and unexpected accidents, whereas a tree dying or rotting over time is considered a maintenance issue. Coverage usually only applies after a tree has fallen and caused damage to your property.
