"Jacob and Andrew were both extremely professional. I had a tree that was leaning over two fences and was between power lines and they were able to get it taken down incredibly quickly without any evidence they were ever here. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking to have tree work done."

"Gray's was an amazing experience at a reasonable price. Their customer service was responsive and efficient with their communication. They were easy to schedule and cut down the tree, cleaned up the remnants, and made worked with me to schedule a follow-up to remove the stump when the city was scheduled to rip up the sidewalk. I highly recommend them for any tree or landscaping work you have planned!"

"Mr. Duvall was professional, did very well with the estimate and everything was smooth with no complications. I hired Mr. Duvall twice and one of jobs he returned to finish a job. NO OTHER CONTRACTORS EVEN RETURNED AFTER BEING PAID IN FULL. Mr. Duvall is the only contractor that has been paid in full, returned and finished a job. No other contractors have done this! EVERY contract that has been paid in full has never returned to finish the work; other then Mr. Duvall. Duvall tree removal done amazing work! My neighbors love my yard, my tenant's neighbors love the yard and Mr. Duvall knows how to make a property look wonderful. I look for laborers and skill treads that I can hire often. I'd very happily hire Duvall Tree Remove for future work!!!!! Highly recommend Mr. Duvall's work and services!!!!!!"

"I reached out to him on a Sunday evening for a quote and within 24 hrs he was at my home and we talked about what was priority and what could wait for next spring. We scheduled the tree removal for 2 days later and when he arrived, he got the job done in less than an hour. His prices were affordable and we spoke about him coming back to remove a larger tree and several stumps. I’ll be sure to recommend him to those I know that’s looking to have trees removed"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Pruning trees during the summer can be a bad idea because the new growth will take place during the hottest months of the year, which can stress your tree out. Similarly, pruning during the early fall can be a bad idea, too, because you’d be stimulating new growth when most trees are aiming to go dormant. 

Pruning recommendations will vary by the type of tree, but generally, waiting until winter to prune your trees is a good idea.

Many gardeners charge an hourly rate for their services, and your total cost will depend on the amount of services and the experience of the gardener. Gardeners with basic experience charge between $20 and $30 per hour, while a more experienced gardener can charge as much as $60 to $88 per hour.

The cost of lawn mowing is about $125, which you might need on a weekly or biweekly basis. However, the cost of soil testing averages about $1,450, which should only be done every three to five years. 

You may be looking to identify maple trees to use for home improvement projects. In that case, you can tell hard maples by looking at their leaves. Leaves will have a U-shaped dip, or sinus, between the points, or lobes, of the leaves. Leaves of soft maples tend to have V-shaped sinuses.

If you already have the cut wood in front of you, look for a light, uniform color to identify hard maple wood and check for variations of red, gray, or brown streaks and an overall darker color in soft maple wood.

Early signs that a tree is struggling include premature leaf shedding and lesions or other strange markings. Peeling bark, dead or rotten branches on the ground, and a conspicuous lack of leaves can all be signs that a tree has started to die. By the time a tree starts leaning, it’s usually too far gone to save.

It is possible to burn out a tree stump if it is dried out and in an area of your property with a large buffer. Drill holes in the stump and dig around the base so it burns more easily. Then, build a small campfire on top using kindling and firewood. You’ll need enough to keep the fire going for many hours to completely burn out the stump, especially if it’s large. 

Monitor the fire closely to ensure it doesn’t spread, and have a hose on hand if it starts to get out of control. When the fire is out, break apart the burned stump and dig out what’s left of it.  

If this sounds like a good option, learn more about how to burn a tree stump before attempting it, as it does come with risks.
