WISEMAN TREE EXPERTS is a family operated company whose mission is to provide affordable quality tree services. We are fully insured and offer 30yrs of expertice. We are also certified to work around electrical powerlines! WISEMAN TREE EXPERTS has an overhead of 8 workers that get the job done diligently and safely. Estimates are always free!

"There needs to be an A++ for this business! We purchased our house a couple of years ago and the front and back yards were both a wreck in every way (lawn, trees, randomly planted shrubs, weeds). There were multiple evergreens in the front yard physically touching the house, a bunch of randomly planted (like 7) trees in the back yard that looked terrible, invasive species and vines growing up into the trees/shrubs that we wanted to keep. I set up an appointment, got an estimate on Monday and Wednesday at 9 a.m. the work was done (removed all trees and shrubs, ground down stumps, put everything in the woodchopper on site and turned it to mulch. Everyone was courteous, helpful, knowledgeable, professional, punctual - I could not have had a better experience. Everything was neat, tidy and looked great when they left. I highly recommend this company - I was so impressed that I told them that they need to charge more for the work they do (my husband had asked someone else for an estimate, and got a quote that was 10 times the amount we paid for about 25% of the work that they did). ! I also like that it is a nice family-owned local business. This will be our go to tree company as long as our family lives in the Lansing area. WOW."

"Removal was efficient even though there was a lot more concrete below ground than expected. Made a trip to the hardware store for extra sand to fill in the hole and even hooked me up with a new hoop!"

Prestige Landscape and Design is dedicated to providing outstanding landscape projects for our customers, utilizing innovative design and quality installation. We are focused entirely on landscape design and construction, offering over forty years of experience in all aspects of the landscape field including paver patios, retaining walls, water features, gardens, new landscapes and landscape rehabilitation. Our mission is to maximize and enhance the use, living space and value of our customer's property. Real estate appraisers know that a pleasing landscape can increase property values significantly. "Curb appeal" is considered to be one of the most important factors in selling a home.

"When we purchased our rental, the prior owners had taken out all of the foundation plantings and landscaping, leaving only a sunken front walk, gravel around the perimeter, and two trees in the front yard. Unfortunately, when replacing the sewer line, an incompetent plumber killed our beautiful old maple and the crabapple started to die, too. Moreover, during the purchase inspection, we'd been advised to lower the level of dirt around the foundation, and we had learned that the shape of the terrain was contributing to water in the basement during heavy rains. The front lawn was a weedy, lumpy mess with a pile of wood chips from the dead maple. Enter Prestige Landscape & Design, who I found through Angi.com. I discussed our issues with Ben, who visited the property to assess what needed to be done and followed up with a plan/layout along with pictures of the hardscape materials to be used. All in all, he removed the gravel and dirt around the foundation, sealed the foundation, installed new window wells, installed a drainage system, re-contoured the land, buried the gutter downspouts and sump pump outlet while integrating them into the drainage system, reseeded the lawn, replaced the front walk and door step, and planted a beautiful assortment of perennials, shrubs, and trees. Oh, and he hauled away all the mess that was there before. Doesn't it make you tired just reading all this? Well, according to my tenant, Ben and his small team were tireless at their efforts. Ben was hardworking and considerate, and even the neighbors got to know and like him over the three weeks that he did the work. And the final result was beautiful and impeccable. I feel so fortunate to have found Ben and Prestige Landscape and Design, and if I need future work done, I know who to call!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Rather than using a common two-by-four piece of wood for a rafter, you probably will use two-by-six, two-by-eight, two-by-ten, or even two-by-twelve boards. Wider lumber is typically a better choice in a larger building as it provides more sturdiness. Some installers may use wider lumber for rafters near the edges of the roof, where the greatest stress occurs, and save money with narrower lumber toward the middle.

Turnbuckle weight loads vary depending on their size. Smaller 1/4-inch turnbuckles have a weight capacity of about 500 pounds. A 3/8-inch diameter turnbuckle, which is strong enough to handle most residential fence gates, can handle a working load of 1,200 pounds. Larger 1/2-inch diameter models have a limit of 4,000 pounds.

Although dependent on the type and size of lumber, most 2-by-4-by-8-foot pieces of lumber cost anywhere from $3 to $6. Softwood lumber like pine falls on the lower end of the spectrum, while hardwood lumber like oak or walnut falls on the higher end. Different retailers and lumber yards can also vary in price, so it helps to shop around to compare prices.

On average, a prefabricated pergola kit takes one to four hours to build. Prefabricated pergolas are the fastest to install and could save you money, while custom pergolas can take several days to install, ranging from eight to 16 hours. The number of workers on the project can also impact how long it takes to install a pergola. 

If you need to build a concrete slab, level your property, or remove obstacles from your yard before building a pergola, then your project could take several weeks to complete.

Wood, vinyl, and metal are common materials. Choose based on durability, aesthetics, and maintenance needs.
