"I turned 71 this year and have done business with many tree care companies. None have come close to the caliber of work done by Home Grown Tree Care. Ryan approaches his tasks with intelligence and skill, and he does not rest until the job is done. I do not hesitate to highly recommend Ryan and Home Grown Tree Care. I will always call him when there is tree work to be done on my properties."

"Jeremy and team did an excellent job. Professional, easy to work with, and knowledgeable. We had tree trimming performed at our home in Manitou Beach, MI. on two (2) large trees. We had to have many large branches/limbs removed that hung over the house and deck, with some over electrical wires coming to the house. They were careful and sensitive to the tight working conditions between our house and the neighbors house. Jeremy cleaned up the yard and chipped up all the trimmings. I would highly recommend Milks Tree Service."

"Very nice people to work with. They took down 30+ trees, cleaned up the area, and ground all the stumps. They removed all the large trunks and shredded the smaller branches and trees. They were here when they said they would be. I was extremely happy with the job they did. Again, all of the workers were professional and very easy to work with."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

For safety reasons, leaning trees are best removed by a professional, as they may often tear away from the hinge, causing you to lose control over where the tree falls. If you choose to cut down a tree leaning slightly, avoid cutting off root protrusions before you start. Make your hinge a little longer than usual by cutting it deeper (up to 30% of the diameter) and applying a wedge into the felling cut on the side the tree is leaning. Stand away from the direction the tree leans while making your felling cut.

Many consider the Fraser fir to be the most popular type of Christmas tree, but which type of tree sells out near you can depend on region and decorating trends that year. For example, the Leyland cypress is especially popular in the Southeast, according to the National Christmas Tree Association.

Ideally, you should wait to prune until trees have gone dormant in late fall to early winter. The worst times to prune trees are early fall and late summer, as pruning them so close to dormancy makes it difficult for the tree recover before it goes dormant for the season.

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.

Debris removal is often included in the overall cost of having a tree removed from your property. However, tree maintenance service companies do not always include debris removal in their pricing, so ask any contractors offering tree trimming cost estimates whether or not removal is included. If you want to keep the wood mulch, ask if they charge extra for it as well.
