"Crew was very good at what they did. Were on time as stated. Fast efficient and took the time to safeguard my property. Tree was close to home so extra care was needed did job by climbing as no equipment could be used. Cost was a fair price for my job. Another neighbor seen the work going on and hired Bladmir to cut his tree."

"I have used 3 different tree companyâ  s in the past 20 years and this company far exceeded my expectations. They will now be the only company I will call for my tree work. Justin was great to work with and the crew was exceptional. Cleanup was flawless and my newly pruned trees look great!"

"Everything went extremely well. Communication was good throughout the work being done with the pine trees being lowered to just the right spot. Branches were trimmed back as needed. The overgrown shrubs now look like they should. The team leader, TJ, was very easy to work with. The team appeared to be very experienced and professional. Clean up was excellent. All and all I am very pleased with the outcome."

Customers say: Quick response

"Great company, great prices, very reliable. I needed a very large stump removed from my mothers lawn. I hit up Angieâ s list and then Josh from the Stump Brothers was the first to contact me. He quoted me over the phone and I went with him. Very nice guy and easy to do business with. Did a excellent job and ground the stump and roots around it deep. Some companies will not go to that extent leaving you with roots and parts of stump still in lawn. He also keeps his word. If he says heâ s coming out, he sticks to the appointment. I highly recommend his service and have him locked into my contact list for future use and to recommend to my friends and family. Thank you Josh and Stump Brothers for doing a great job and being an honest trusted company. A1 Mark Mason, Waterford MI"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

According to scientists at Penn State University, spotted lanternflies do not typically kill the trees and plants they feed on, but they can cause branches and segments to die off. However, they have been found to kill cultivated grapes, which can have devastating consequences for vineyard owners and regions that heavily rely on vineyards to create jobs and generate revenue. They have also killed the Ailanthu altissima, known as the tree of heaven, though this is classified as a noxious and invasive weed tree.

The ideal depth of a tree notch depends on the tree, but it should usually be between 20% and 25% of the tree’s depth. However, if the tree is leaning towards the direction of the notch, it can be cut more shallowly—at as little as 10% of the depth. When the tree is leaning away from the direction it needs to be felled, you can cut deeper, closer to 30%.

The best tool to cut trees is a chain saw. You can adjust your chain saw to the correct size based on the size of the branches, offering you the fastest and cleanest cut for medium- to large-sized trees. Depending on the type of chainsaw you use, you can cut through larger trees than you would with a more manual tool like an ax.

For trimming trees, your best tool is a pair of pruning shears or loppers. Both options work best for branches that are under 3 inches in diameter. Trimming trees with a larger diameter may require a robust tool like a small chainsaw or a handsaw, so take into account your tree’s diameter when deciding between tools.

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.
