"It went fantastic. The crew is awesome. Our small yard has a lot of trees and they took down two to make way for privacy fence. Hardly a leaf out of place afterward. Very professional, and focused on safety and doing the job with the least amount of disruption to yard and surroundings. Clean up was impeccable, barely know they were here. I highly recommend this company for superior work, price, and cleanup!"

"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."

"Bob came out immediately upon request and gave me a very reasonable quote on landscaping and rebuilding my backyard pond with fountain. He sent Josh and Caleb to do the job in one day! Josh and Caleb were gracious, extremely professional, and did an excellent job. I have already committed to hiring them for more landscaping services. In fact, I will never hire anyone else. Iâ m an older woman who lives alone so having someone I can trust is imperative. Josh and Caleb were not only accommodating of my requests, they were fun and while being efficient. They were delightful to work with!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Yes, cutting a tree's roots can cause it to fall, particularly if major support roots are severed. In extreme cases, trimming roots can affect the tree's structure and stability. Many crucial roots are located just below the soil's surface. If you make severe cuts to roots more than 2 inches in diameter, you risk impacting the tree's water flow and its ability to withstand severe winds or storms. Even cutting roots less than half an inch in diameter under or outside the tree's canopy can cut off its water supply, causing it to decline, die, and eventually topple.

We don’t recommend DIY tree trimming for a few different reasons. First, the tools required to trim a tree can be costly, up to $1,100 or more, for the ladders and specialized saws needed. 

Safety is another concern, especially when working with more mature trees. As a guideline, you should only DIY tree trimming when branches are less than two inches in diameter. Any more, and the safety risk becomes too high, which could lead to catastrophe. For this job, it’s safest to let a tree-trimming professional assess the work needed.

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.

You need to remove all branches affected by Dutch elm disease. If your tree has several affected branches, you will probably need to remove the entire tree. First, consult a pro to be sure that you’ve correctly identified it as an elm tree. Make sure the tree is properly disposed of with a plastic covering or through debarking, chipping, or burning.

It can be bad to leave a dead stump in the ground. A stump becomes a hefty piece of dead wood in time and eventually (especially with the help of rain) starts to rot. That makes it a locus point for diseases and pesky insects, as well as a bit of an eyesore. It’s best to remove a tree stump completely before it starts to decay, especially before it starts to fall apart. If the tree was removed because of disease, it’s even more important to fully remove the stump if possible.
