"When Arborist Mr. Paul Fox confirmed that our beloved apple tree's days were numbered we knew it was time to bring it down. Mr. Fox really knows his trees and answered all my questions in detail. We also had some pines that needed trimming. The price was very fair. The crew did a great job, worked quickly, and were very nice. They left us a good bit of firewood and even stacked it in kind of a semi Stonehenge layout that we loved. I highly recommend Ballard Enterprises for any and all tree service!!"

"Your company was third to give me a quote. It was so much cheaper than others I had to ask three times if it was for tree removal & stump. There was a delay in getting started as I was having driveway paved and it was pending the weather. As it turned out the paving company had showed up same day as service for tree & was told they could come back following Monday. For some unknown reason you guys didn't return so was desperate on finding you again because I was not given a card or firm date for service. As it turned out after several calls I found your service contact again and even with rain the night before, your guys were there bright & early. The tree and stump & tree was removed, everything was cleaned so good you couldn't even see there was a tree there before. I will definitely use your company again on other properties and highly recommend your service to anyone who is looking. Thanks for a well done job."

"Surlan responded to my request for estimate (unlike the other pros suggested by Angie). He looked at our property and helped us determine what needed to be done. He presented us with a contract and we agreed to price proposed for services, They arrived promptly as scheduled. They cut down three tress and trimmed limbs on several others. We are completely satisfied with the services provided."

"I was very impressed by Fernando Reyes and his entire team. They cleared 4 poplar trees and trimmed my 3 crepe mertyl. Their price was good, and their work was excellent. I was most impressed at the finished product and clean up. My yard looked great. I will be using them again for future tree work."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

You’ll have to balance up the cost, the value of the tree (sentimental or otherwise), and the risk factors. An experienced arborist will help you understand whether transplanting is likely to be successful. The cost and hassle of transplanting a large, well-established tree are often not worth it, especially if the species is fast-growing and easy to source. The decision depends on the age and species of the tree, the conditions in the new site location, and how careful the company is when digging out and moving the tree.

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.

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.

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.

Yes, it is highly recommended to remove tree stumps. Leaving them in the ground can lead to several problems, as they are not only unsightly but can also reduce your property's value. Stumps can obstruct landscaping plans, make mowing difficult, and hinder new growth. More importantly, they are prime breeding grounds for pests like termites, ants, and mice, which can spread to your home and cause costly damage to its wood and foundation. Stumps also attract fungi and diseases that can infect other healthy trees and plants in your yard. As a stump decays, it might sprout new, unwanted shoots. While removing a stump is an investment, it prevents these potential issues and enhances the safety, health, and appearance of your landscape.
