"We hired Christian in April 2024 to remove 7 tree stumps from my yard. He was responsive from the initial contact all the way through the project. Scheduling him was easy, and he showed up the day he said he would, removed all stumps in a day, and left the property clean and just how we wanted it. We would definitely hire him again."

"Vision is great to work with! They exceeded my expectations on a walkway and garden bed rebuild. I plan to hire them again in the spring to do another walkway install in the back yard and for shrub planting."

"They are the best. I have had two other tree service companies do work for me in the past. Both were good, but Bull Pine Tree Service is the best. They are professional. They cleaned up as they were working. Work was done very fast and efficiently. Will call them again when I need more tree work done."

"SM Tree Service carefully and safely removed two huge maples that were close to our house, near power lines and other structures. Seamus does the whole thing, climbing, roping off limbs, carefully dropping, cleaning up without tearing up the landscape. Methodical and intelligent. He's also transparent and honest about what things cost and gives you the best price possible. He clearly loves this work and you will love the job he does."

"Kimball and Sons were abundantly professional. Mike was responsive in his communications and flexible when I requested additional trees be taken down. The team that removed the trees were pros! They were able to take down dozens of large trees surrounding our house. I was impressed with the care they took of our property while they were here. I would certainly recommend Kimball and Sons to anyone looking to have trees removed."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

The amount of time it takes for a tree trunk to rot depends on several factors, including the tree’s size, species, and environmental conditions. It can take anywhere from a few years to several decades for a tree’s trunk to rot. A tree stump, on the other hand, can take up to 10 years to disappear after it’s decayed naturally.

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

Completely topping a plum tree is a risky business. Cut too much, and you’ll kill your tree. That said, you do need to trim the top of your tree to encourage bushy growth, maintain your tree’s vase shape, and limit size. 

A plum tree's central leader (or trunk) should never extend more than 3 feet above the highest branch. When you first plant your tree, cut the central leader so it’s 2 to 3 feet tall. As it grows, cut it back 12 to 20 inches until it reaches its desired height. Never prune more than one-third of the new growth.

No. Most of the time, suckers are only a sign that the tree is experiencing stress. However, they can also be the canary in the coal mine, letting you know that something else is stressing your tree. If you have lots of suckers on your tree, calling in an arborist or a tree care expert is always a good call to determine the cause and develop a solution that de-stresses your tree.

Peach trees grow to be about 25 feet, so keep this in mind for pruning as well. If you plan to DIY, you’ll need to be comfortable working on a ladder. Without pruning, peach tree branches can sprawl nearly as wide as the tree grows tall, so make sure to plan pruning sessions at least once per year in the spring for controlled growth. And if you’re working on a ladder, be sure to follow all safety precautions, especially if you’ll be dealing with falling branches.
