"Edilson and his crew are efficient, easy to work with, and have a great eye for trimming and shaping trees. We had tree removal, tree trimming, stump, grinding, and more. Not only were they all friendly and accommodating to our requests, their work was excellent, and they cleaned up beautifully. We could not be more happy. Fair price, great crew. Edilson and his staff from the office to the trees all did their jobs well. The great reviews on Home Advisor were spot on!. I highly recommend this business and plan to work with them again in the future."

"Did a fantastic job on both the tree removal and the landscaping ( they remolded three bushes like you wouldn't believe.. They are coming back again to do additional work and I have referred them to my daughter also. Next year when I have additional money I am definitely having them back to remove some more trees. They were all very polite and friendly and did an excellent cleanup job."

"Owner/arborist was forthcoming in discussing the work, reviewed options, pros & cons, and provided his expertise about the trees and work in question. He came on the day, actually offered an early day (which I couldn't take advantage of but was great to be asked!), and did all the work efficiently and effectively. They cleaned up the branches, etc wonderfully! Jim was great and I'd recommend them without reservation."

"I couldn’t be happier with the work from BMG Stump Grinding! From the first time I reached out, they were friendly, professional, and easy to work with. They did a great job removing the stump and cleaned everything up so well afterward that you could hardly tell it was ever there. It’s always nice to find a company that takes pride in their work and treats you like a person, not just another job. I really appreciate how smoothly everything went and would absolutely recommend BMG Stump Grinding to anyone who needs a stump removed. Great service and great people!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

Many species, especially when well-established, are not fans of transplantation. You’ll need to decide if you want to risk splashing the cash, understanding that transplantation isn’t always successful. Again, this is where hiring a pro is helpful, as they can give you all the essential info you need to ensure your tree stands a fighting chance.

Though summer is not ideal, you can do some light pruning during this time of year. Just make sure it’s not excessive. Vigorous pruning will stress the tree and impact next year’s growth. Generally, August to September are the best summer-pruning months, particularly for fruit trees.

White vinegar does not kill ivy on trees because its acetic acid concentration is not high enough to overpower it. Vinegar is an effective herbicide for weeds and other plants, but not for the strength of most ivies, including poison ivy and English ivy. You should use an herbicide to kill ivy, such as one with glyphosate, imazapyr, or triclopyr.

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.
