"Twin G Tree Service exceeded my expectations! I initially reached out for quotes on tree and branch services due to potential roof damage and squirrel issues. Not only did they respond promptly, but they also offered the best rate compared to others. Their team was efficient, professional, and made sure everything was taken care of once the job was done. I am beyond impressed with their work and will absolutely be relying on them for all my future tree maintenance needs. Highly recommended!"

Customers say: Quality work

"I was really impressed by the timely response, workmanship and respect Micah showed. He and crew were on time and really did a nice job removing some trees, stumps, pruning and removing limbs, leaves, etc. They had the equipment needed for the job and I'm very happy with their work. I'm planning on having them come back when I need any more tree removal done. I'd give them an A+ for the work they did for me."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

You can use a felling ax to chop down a tree by following the same prep and steps as a chainsaw, but be prepared to use some muscle. For trees bigger than 7 inches in diameter, it can take some time and serious strength to cut down a tree using just an ax. 

Tree trimming can count as landscaping, depending on how a landscaping business describes its services. Professional tree trimmers are more specialized than landscapers and offer trimming services separately from general landscaping.

When general landscaping companies offer tree trimming, look up the details. They usually mean shaping or seasonal trimming of ornamental trees, which is different from trimming larger trees for health or safety reasons. When possible, look for a licensed expert that specializes in trees and tree health.

The ideal time to prune a tree depends on the type of tree. Typically, late winter or early spring is a good time to prune but isn't always the case for "towering trees." It's best to trim when trees are dormant and before blooms appear but can vary depending on the tree type. It's always best to research the type of tree or ask a professional tree trimmer to determine when is the perfect time to prune your tree.

In general, trees should be planted no closer than 15 to 20 feet from your foundation. For larger trees with far-reaching roots like maples, oaks, or poplars, a good guide is to plant as many feet from your home as the tree’s height is expected to reach at maturity. Some trees, like elms and willows, should only be planted far from where their roots may encounter sewer or water lines.

If a tree stump is removed properly, the chances of a tree growing back are low. However, if a tree has a robust root system, roots can sometimes sprout and someday grow into a tree. The chance of regrowth will depend on several factors such as the type of tree, soil quality, and strength of the root system. In general, it is not recommended to plant a tree where a stump was removed.
