"Both days were great. Each day, while the work was ongoing, the crew chief would stop by once in a while to make sure things were going as expected. The crews were prompt and efficient. Clean up was thorough."

"I just hired Snyderâ s for the 3rd time to demolish a very old yard shed and prepare and level the site for new shed construction. If I could describe Snyderâ s in one word it would be Trustworthy. The work is excellent, the pricing is very fair, and Bob and his crew are friendly, efficient, and accommodating of all my requests. You will actually enjoy hiring them and be beyond satisfied with their work."

"Alan did a great job on clearing some of our old Christmas tree groves. He has some powerful equipment to do the job quickly and efficiently. Plus he really knows how to use the equipment; clearly he has the experience and knowledge to get the job done right. He listened to my concerns that I wanted to leave some of the more desireable hardwoods, but clear out the junk Scotch pine. He completely fulfilled my expectations. I will be continuing to deal with them in the future. I would highly recommend Holden Homescapes."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Transporting a fully-grown tree requires heavy equipment, typically specialized for the task. A tree spade is a truck-mounted tool that removes the tree from the ground in one location, transports it, and places it in a new hole in a new location. A combination of mechanized shovels and lifts is necessary to move very large trees, and the exact tools often depend on location and the surrounding area.

Yes, it can be good to remove dead branches from trees. Dead branches can lead to rot in other areas of the tree. They can also cause damage if they fall on a house, shed, fence, car, pool, or other structure or property. However, it’s important that dead branch removal is done safely. If the branch is high in a tree or requires a lift or ladder to access, consider calling a professional tree removal company, as they will have the experience and equipment to do the job safely.

You can use a chainsaw, but it won’t remove the entire stump or root ball and is not a recommended method. It takes quite a bit of physical work to achieve and will likely dull or ruin your chainsaw. Instead, consider using salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, stump grinding, or burning to kill a tree stump. These methods allow you to kill a stump using minimal machinery and physical exertion.

You should avoid cutting off the top of mature cherry trees. This process is called tree topping, and it’s not recommended for cherry trees—or any trees, for that matter. Tree topping removes between one-third to half of the length of the tree trunk, resulting in structurally unsound, fruitless suckers. The only exception is for saplings. Young pie, sour, and tart cherry trees that are over 30 inches tall in the fall or winter before the tree blooms can benefit from heading cuts.

Though summer is not ideal, you can do some light pruning during this time of year. Just make sure it’s not excessive. Vigorous pruning will stress the tree and impact next year’s growth. Generally, August to September are the best summer-pruning months, particularly for fruit trees.
