"TDR did a wonderful job cleaning up and mowing my neglected yard in a very timely manner as well as giving me a quote before doing the work. I'm very happy I found & hired TDR, spoke with Stephen many times over the course of the job as well as receiving pictures of work and video when completed since I wasn't able to be there at my place. Highly recommend & hired Stephen to come back to keep yard under control in the future."

"I originally hired them to haul off some trash/junk. During that visit I learned about all the different services they provide and I have expanded my usage of their services. I have several acres that need attention and they have all the equipment to help with that. The work is ongoing but is going well."

"Excellent service. Punctual, professional, courteous, and efficient. The yard looks great! All debris, clippings, and trash were bagged and removed. Also installed some shelving in the garage. Again, very professional in making sure the shelves were secure and level. Swept the floor and wiped down the shelves after installing. I'm very pleased with the work done and will call them again for future needs."

"Razor Edge Lawncare is the place to go if you need your property maintained. They came out immediately, gave me a competitive quote, and started (and finished) the next day. They hauled off two brush piles, a bunch of old fencing and other trash, then mowed and weedeated the entire property. They gave me everything they promised they would and more. They neighbors were all impressed and hired the crew for to get their property mowed and manicured. Demarcus runs a very professional business! Give him a call and you'll be glad you did."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally, homeowners do not need permission to cut down a tree on their own private property, but there are several exceptions where a permit may be required. You might need a permit if the tree is particularly large, old, or a protected species, such as a heritage tree. Trees located near public property or power lines can also be subject to special rules. Additionally, many local governments and homeowners associations (HOAs) have regulations controlling which trees can be removed to manage an area's appearance or prevent the spread of invasive species. To avoid hefty fines, it is crucial to check with your local government and HOA to determine if a permit is needed before you begin.

Before you cut down a dead palm tree, try to revive it using the methods listed above. However, there are instances when it makes sense to remove a dead palm tree, including:

  • The heavily infected tree will infect nearby trees, bushes, and plants.

  • The palm’s roots are overtaking your yard, foundation, and sidewalk and causing structural damage.

  • The tree is unstable and a hazard to your property, your neighbor’s property, and pedestrians.

The fastest ways to remove a tree stump are by grinding it or burning it.

Stump grinding is often the quickest method, with professionals able to chip away a stump and its roots within a single session. You have the option to hire a professional stump removal service or rent a stump grinder to do it yourself. However, it's important to note that these machines can be large, difficult to transport, and dangerous to operate without prior experience. For safety reasons, hiring a local arborist or landscape specialist is often recommended.

Burning is another fast option. Before you begin, check your local burn laws. The process involves drilling holes into the stump, filling them with vegetable oil, and waiting 24 to 48 hours. Afterward, you can add charcoal bricks to the surface and light the fire, which must be attended at all times.

For a more affordable but much slower alternative, you can use potassium nitrate pellets to accelerate the natural decomposition process. This method typically takes four to six months.

The ideal depth of a tree notch depends on the tree, but it should usually be between 20% and 25% of the tree’s depth. However, if the tree is leaning towards the direction of the notch, it can be cut more shallowly—at as little as 10% of the depth. When the tree is leaning away from the direction it needs to be felled, you can cut deeper, closer to 30%.

Most tree surgeons cost around $100 per hour or between $70 and $200 per hour for their services. You might get flat fees for more straightforward services, like a tree assessment, tree removal, stump grinding, and one-off treatments, but many times, treatments for tree diseases or pests will be charged based on an hourly rate or a per-visit rate. Since the cost of a tree surgeon can vary widely, it’s best to speak with an arborist near you to get an idea of what your particular issue will cost to correct.
