"D&B Tree Service are great! They came out and took care of some branches over my garage and house, cleaned moss off the garage, and did a few repairs to the house and garage roofs. Beyond that, they've got a team with various home renovation and repair experience, so I had them over for about a week fixing a rental unit I just bought. They're good people and do great work!"

"Adam and his team were very good. Clean, timely, professional. They did what they said they would do and checked with us when something wasnâ t clear. I would highly recommend them and I plan to hire them for more work in the near future. We need more providers like the team from Better Lawns and Landscaping! They did a beautiful fire pit with a big locked paver circle around it and they made a couple of new garden areas for us and change things that weâ re high maintenance into things that are now low maintenance."

"Update to last review: Peter & I finally were able to sit & talk about job. We both listened to each other & solved what got off base & how to correct it. Work is finished & beautiful- I couldn’t be happier & more proud how everyone sees my yards now- both front & back yards. Now I look forward to seeing my Rock Garden - which is quite large, come to life under their care next spring 2026. Some of my neighbors are evening borrowing some of our ideas- such a compliment. So be an “influencer “ & use Beckers Lawncare & Lanscaping- get the right one!! I’d posted picture but site wouldn’t accept them for some technical reason I’m sure 😁"

"I had a huge tree fall in my front yard, and Belle Boy Snow Plowing Service came through for me! They gave me an amazing price—literally almost half of what other companies were charging—and still did an incredible job. They cleaned everything up so well, no stubs or mess left behind, and got it done quickly. On top of that, they were very professional and really knew what they were doing. I would definitely recommend them and will be using them again if I ever need to!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Lightning can cause massive damage, fires, and openings for other threats like bugs or fungal diseases. Barring any large fires or explosions, it’s difficult to tell how much damage a lightning strike has done until after a thorough inspection. Contact local authorities immediately if lightning strikes a tree in your yard and it causes a fire or explosion.

It’s possible to transplant trees as tall as 50 feet when an experienced tree planting service uses the right equipment. However, a tree with a trunk larger than two or three inches in diameter needs to be handled by a professional in order to yield successful transplanting results. Consulting a tree planting professional is the best way to tell if your large tree can be safely transplanted.

The best time to cut down a tree is during its dormant season, typically in winter or early spring, after all the leaves have fallen. Removing a tree during this period is advantageous for several reasons. Frozen ground helps secure the tree stump, protects the surrounding landscape from damage, and reduces the risk of the tree falling in an unintended direction. With the leaves gone, there is less risk of the tree's foliage getting tangled with other trees. Additionally, since this is often a slower season for tree services, you may be able to hire a professional at a lower rate. This dormant period is also the best time for tree trimming.

Generally, if your neighbor’s tree hangs over your yard, you can legally trim overhanging branches. Keep in mind that you cannot cross your property line to cut the trees, and if you damage the tree by trimming it, your neighbor could sue you. Depending on the type of tree and value, this could mean dishing out two to three times the value of the tree.

It’s worth noting that the specifics of this type of tree maintenance and the guidelines around it may vary by location. Do your research and, most importantly, consult with your neighbor.

You can find pruning paints and sealants for trees, but you shouldn’t use them on a topped tree. Coatings like these often inhibit the tree’s healing process. An important exception is if there are dangerous fungi nearby that the tree is particularly vulnerable to, like oaks and oak wilt. Sealing cuts can help prevent fungi from taking root.
