"We asked for removal of small trees and brush cutting along a long driveway. The workers showed up with a large trailer truck, and worked very quickly. There was no mess left behind. Very neat job."

"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 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."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Not all evergreen conifers need to be pruned, but some do. Pruning pine trees is not necessary, but you can do so during June and July if you wish. On the other hand, spruce, firs, and junipers do need to be pruned from late winter to early spring.

The Christmas tree type that smells the best to you will ultimately depend on personal preference. But if that classic Christmas tree smell is important to you, choosing a type of tree known for its scent is a safe bet. Try a balsam fir for a spicy, comforting scent or a Douglas fir for a sweeter smell. You may also like Fraser firs, Scotch pines, and blue spruces.

Aim to have your trees inspected and pruned in early spring. At this point in the year, tree service professionals can note where there is old growth from winter and cut that back to encourage new growth for the rest of the year. Pruning at the wrong time of the year could make your trees prone to diseases.

In nature, there are many things that can cause a tree to die, including diseases, insects, and natural disasters such as fires or droughts. Non-natural methods of killing a tree include herbicides or manual intervention, such as cutting it down. Consult a tree removal professional about your options for naturally killing a tree.

Talking with a septic pro before planting trees near your tank is best to ensure the roots won’t interfere with your septic system. However, there is an easy way to figure out where to plant a tree—but you’ll need to know how tall it can get when it’s fully grown. For instance, if the tree can reach 50 feet, plant it at least 50 feet from your septic system.
