I was supposed to have my work done on Monday, but he came over on Friday afternoon and finished the job. Great work Lakeshore Tree Care!! I do have some tree work coming for which I will need help and Lakeshore Tree Care will be the first call I make. Go with Lakeshore Tree Care. You won't be disappointed."

"Twin City Tree Authority removed an overdue, diseased Ash tree. I had been hesitant and dragging my feet to get the tree looked at, due to my lack of knowledge with trees. I was so impressed (and relieved!) with their honesty and level of arborist knowledge. I was given option of what work needed to be done, along with detailed costs for each item. They used a lift to access my backyard, through a fence and gate. They were very cautious and careful not to damage my yard, which was very important to me. I will be using Twin City Tree Authority from now on. I highly recommend this crew!"

"I had a large 100 year old Oak tree that was dead and in danger of falling on the house, fence, electric wire etc. I was able to get on the schedule quickly they arrived on time and tree was gone so fast, also very professional. I couldn't be happier with the service and all at a fair price. I would highly recommend and will be calling them this Fall for additional projects!"

"They are very skilled at controlling the cutting of the tree, part by part, and maintaining safety of personnel and property . They observed our wishes to leave the trunks and branches in the back yard so that we could maximize our use of the tree for firewood."

"Excellent service! Big city savy and equipment, plus small town friendliness. Very impressed with their promptness, equipment, teamwork, cleanup and tree results. They cheerfully remembered and honored all my preferences and when they discovered a bird’s next they carefully trimmed around a it to protect mama bird and babies."

"It went well. Workers were respectful and easy to work with. The trees look great. It was enjoyable working with them. I took three bids and their bid was the lowest. But, I didn't select them just based on cost. I chose them because they had a certified arborist and their knowledge of trees, advising me on what was best for the trees' long-term survival. I recently bought the property and the trees had not been well-maintained. Quality work, quality people, and reasonable price."

"Jared walked my yard with me and patiently explained what needed to be done and why. I had about 12 trees removed and 4 very large trees trimmed and the work exceeded my expectations. I have a lot of plants around my trees and they were virtually untouched. If you have tree removal and trimming needed make sure to call Jared."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

A tree can split because of high winds, a change in temperature, or from an infestation or tree disease. All of these factors can overlap, making a single cause difficult to pinpoint. While winter storms are some of the most common causes for a tree to split, it can also happen because of termites or rot.

There are a few differences between tree guying and tree staking. Tree guying requires anchor stakes that are shorter and stronger than regular stakes and are driven deeper into the ground at an angle away from the tree. Tree staking uses longer stakes that are set parallel to the tree and are used for smaller trees. Consult a local tree professional to determine which method is best for your tree.

You can start your search for a reputable arborist online by looking for professionals who hold the proper licensing and are fully insured. Next, read through some online reviews to see what kind of service the expert brings to the table, and confirm that they don’t have a history of complaints with the Better Business Bureau. Finally, you can ask the professional for a list of references and then call them to ask questions about the service, professionalism, value, and more that the expert brings to the table.

Most trees can be successfully transplanted while they are young, but pines, walnuts, and some oak tree varieties are more difficult to move because their root systems grow deeper than most other trees. Also, trees adapted to sandy soil with wide root systems like beeches, willows, and aspens are harder to dig out because their roots spread much farther out from the trunk. In these cases, unless the trees are very young and small, it’s a good idea to consult a tree planting professional.

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.
