"This was the only company that gave me an estimate and showed up with copies of his insurance, required licenses, and information about his company. He also said he did not want any payment until the jib was done and I was happy with his work. My estimate included trimming 3 trees, removing 2 trees and grinding both stumps. The price was less than some of the bigger companies estimated to remove just one tree. Their work was excellent. They used leaf blowers to remove all the sawdust from lawn and also took a pile of brush they saw sitting in my yard. To be honest, I was afraid to get the final bill because the quality of work and the price seemed too good to be true. However, the final price was the same as the estimate I was quoted. This is a small, family owned company that does quality work and care about what their customers think. Harold is just a decent, honest man and I was so impressed with him and his team. KB Tree is the only company I will call when I need tree work or one of the other services he also offers."

"I NEVER write reviews, but Jim and his crew deserve a huge shout out! I had 12 large pine trees, most within 10 feet of my home. The crew did an AMAZING job removing the trees, as well as the cleanup afterward. Jim gave me a very fair and reasonable price. He and his crew were super friendly, polite and very professional. I would HIGHLY recommend this company. These guys were PHENOMENAL!!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

A tree growing close to a house can pose several risks, but removal isn't always the only or best solution. Potential problems include roots growing into the foundation and causing structural cracks, branches damaging the roof or promoting moss growth, and debris clogging gutters, which can lead to water damage. Trees can also provide access for pests and encourage mold. However, a small, healthy tree may not be a problem, and for larger, established trees, strategic trimming can be a cheaper and more beneficial alternative to removal. It is generally recommended to take action for trees within 10 to 20 feet of your home, especially if they are unhealthy or encroaching. Your best bet is to consult a professional arborist who can assess the specific situation and provide expert advice.

Yes, cutting a tree's roots can cause it to fall, particularly if major support roots are severed. In extreme cases, trimming roots can affect the tree's structure and stability. Many crucial roots are located just below the soil's surface. If you make severe cuts to roots more than 2 inches in diameter, you risk impacting the tree's water flow and its ability to withstand severe winds or storms. Even cutting roots less than half an inch in diameter under or outside the tree's canopy can cut off its water supply, causing it to decline, die, and eventually topple.

You can use herbicides to prevent roots from growing without killing the tree itself, however they must be used with caution. Systemic herbicides are absorbed by the root and can kill off problematic roots. However, herbicides can sometimes negatively impact nearby plants, so the solution is best used sparingly.

The ideal time to prune a tree depends on the type of tree. Typically, late winter or early spring is a good time to prune but isn't always the case for "towering trees." It's best to trim when trees are dormant and before blooms appear but can vary depending on the tree type. It's always best to research the type of tree or ask a professional tree trimmer to determine when is the perfect time to prune your tree.

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.
