"We had Davidson Lawn Care install our Christmas lights this year, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. Their communication throughout the process was clear and consistent—they kept us updated on scheduling and answered all of our questions promptly. We were impressed by how quickly they got us on the calendar. The lights are perfectly symmetrical, evenly spaced, and securely fastened. They paid attention to details like clean corners, straight lines along the roofline, and balanced placement around windows and landscaping. Everything looks professional and well thought out, with no dangling cords or uneven sections."

"Ben and his crew did a spectacular job of transforming our side garden from a weed infested train wreck to an absolute beauty spot. His estimate was spot on, he arrived when he said he would and got the project done earlier than anticipated. He and his workers were unfailingly quiet and polite. This is one of the best experiences we have ever had with a household project. Hire him! You won't be sorry!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

For small trees, tree removal should take just a couple of hours to complete. Assume that a mid-sized tree will take between four and eight hours, depending on the extent of the equipment required and the health of the tree. Remember to add up to two hours for stump removal. Larger trees could take as long as one or two working days, about eight hours each.

The ideal depth of a tree notch depends on the tree, but it should usually be between 20% and 25% of the tree’s depth. However, if the tree is leaning towards the direction of the notch, it can be cut more shallowly—at as little as 10% of the depth. When the tree is leaning away from the direction it needs to be felled, you can cut deeper, closer to 30%.

Licensing requirements for arborists, also known as tree surgeons, vary by state and municipality. Many areas require a license, which often involves specialized education and experience. Even if not mandated, it's wise to hire a licensed professional as they tend to have more experience. Beyond licensing, look for certifications from organizations like the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) or the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA), as this indicates a higher level of expertise. Certified arborists must typically pass a comprehensive exam. Always confirm that the arborist has a business license and is fully insured to protect yourself from liability. Seeking positive recommendations from local homeowners is also a good step in finding a qualified professional.

It depends on where you live—but in most areas, leaves begin falling in September and continue falling until January or February. Warmer regions, such as Southern states, may see leaves fall a bit later in the calendar year. It also depends on the type of trees in your yard and their maturity. 

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.
