"Jason showed up to look at the work we needed done on the same day we called to inquire...that was impressive to begin with. We decided to use All Seasons Tree Service and are very happy with the results and the quickness to get it scheduled as well as how quickly they were able to do a lot of tree clearing. They certainly have the equipment for a job as big as this one was. The crew were great as well. Fun to watch a well oiled crew attack a job as they all worked together to get it done...wow We'd highly recommend this tree service to anyone...only thing is my husband wished he coulda drove that monster skidder...he says that's a beast....lol"

"I can't say enough about my experience with this business. Prompt,professional, polite...I can't say enough good things...the crew came in and pulled off what seemed impossible with the efficiency of a well greased machine. They got the job done and cleaned up everything. I've owned 12 homes and have lots of services over the years and this is easily the best encounter ever...Kevin and the team are better than great. I'm old and was treated so fair and square...that isn't always the case. I can't say enough good things...I shouldn't have worried so much and you shouldn't either if you go with this company. Finally...the cost was SIGNIFICANTLY LESS than the other two quotes I got....ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC."

"Removal of 4 very large trees leaning towards my house; by careful collaboration with Code Officer, Apex restored my view of the pond yet protected the environment and habitat. Excellent crew, well organized for efficient and safe work. Apex workers very friendly and easy to deal with. My site was tricky to navigate the equipment around, but crew was very careful . Excellent cleanup after the work."

"I had a great experience with Maine Roots Stump Grinding. Lucas took care of two stumps for me and did an amazing job! Communication was excellent from start to finish. Lucas was friendly, prompt, and easy to work with. Both stump sites look great. What a difference it makes in how my yard looks to have the stumps taken out. I really appreciate the quality of the job and would definitely recommend this service to anyone needing stump grinding."

"Robbie is great, he did excellent work and went above and beyond to make sure everything was done perfectly in terms of timeliness, quality, and cleanup. He also had very reasonable pricing compared to two other tree services. He is courteous and conscientious, a great combination that is something every homeowner likes to see from someone they hire. He and Bob cleared 7 trees for us, they left small logs for us for firewood, cleaned up the entire yard and even the roof afterwards. They also filled in all ruts in the lawn that were unavoidable given the work performed. I really can't recommend his company enough!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Service costs depend on several factors, including the system's age, type, and size, as well as the complexity of the repair. Labor costs and whether replacement parts are necessary also play a significant role.

Generally, avoid trimming trees in the summer (with the exception of pruning fruit trees as needed). Trees use a lot of energy in the summer, most of which is relegated to new growth. If you chop it too early, you could stunt the next season's growth. Again, when in doubt, do some research based on the specific tree type.

Tree roots can take weeks to years to die, depending on the method you use. Chemical herbicides take the least amount of time—typically between three and four weeks—while homemade methods, like covering an old stump with leaves, could take between seven and eight years. If you’re unsure which method to use or how quickly you need to act, consulting with a pro is always a good idea.

Removing tree stumps is a dangerous and complex job that requires a high level of expertise. Many landscapers specialize in general lawn care and maintenance. But, some may have the proper licensing and qualifications needed to safely remove tree stumps. In most cases, though, landscapers will refer you to a local tree removal or stump grinding company.

Transporting a fully-grown tree requires heavy equipment, typically specialized for the task. A tree spade is a truck-mounted tool that removes the tree from the ground in one location, transports it, and places it in a new hole in a new location. A combination of mechanized shovels and lifts is necessary to move very large trees, and the exact tools often depend on location and the surrounding area.
