"Marissa responded very quickly to my request for an estimate. She explained the work to be done to trim and shape 3 trees in my front yard. Marissa emailed me the morning of the day scheduled for the work me know they would arrive late because of an equipment problem at an earlier job. The crew did an excellent job of trimming the trees away from my house and checked with me to make sure I was satisfied. They thoroughly cleaned up all the branches and debris before they left. I've received compliments from neighbors on how the trees look now. I would not hesitate to call A&M Tree Services the next time I need an arborist. ."

"Jay's Firewood & Mulch, LLC did a fantastic job! Jay & his crew had all the necessary equipment for removing large tree limbs that had grown over the roof of my house. The crew was very careful to not damage the old majestic tree, as well as taking care not to damage my roof, yard or existing landscaping. The turnaround time after accepting the very affordable bid was quick. Jay & his crew also neatly stacked the wood for my fireplace, as well as providing a very large mulch pile for my landscape. I highly recommend Jay's Firewood & Mulch, LLC, & I plan on using them again. 5 stars all the way!!"

"Great work. Showed up on time. Team hit the ground running. Due to space considerations and the size of the tree, the crew had to drop the tree manually. They moved yard “stuff” (birdbath , etc.) that might be in the trees path. Very professional. Team constantly raking and picking up debris. When they were done they left a very clean space behind, with no yard divots and only a little sawdust. We had a very large tree, and they had it down and out in four hours. Victor was our contact and he was very professional and explained every step of the process. Highly recommend. We are scheduling A & M for additional tree work in the fall."

"The crew of 5 worked methodically to remove and trim the trees and then cut up the trunk of the large Hickory making it easy to move for my husband. My yard/driveway was clean and tidy when Mike and his crew left. They had to deal with a children's play set, a horse fence and mature plantings all while the large tree was down......could not have asked for better results! Will recommend Baumann Tree Service and we will use their services again.

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, and burning can all help dissolve a tree stump. You can also bury the tree stump in soil or mulch to help it rot naturally. Killing a tree stump prevents future regrowth, but you may also remove it by digging it out or grinding it.

The best tools for tree removal include a chainsaw for large trees, an ax for notching and cutting down small trees, and a wedge to help control the direction a tree falls in. A hatchet can be useful for very small trees, but won’t be effective for medium to large trees. 

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.

Many species, especially when well-established, are not fans of transplantation. You’ll need to decide if you want to risk splashing the cash, understanding that transplantation isn’t always successful. Again, this is where hiring a pro is helpful, as they can give you all the essential info you need to ensure your tree stands a fighting chance.

White vinegar does not kill ivy on trees because its acetic acid concentration is not high enough to overpower it. Vinegar is an effective herbicide for weeds and other plants, but not for the strength of most ivies, including poison ivy and English ivy. You should use an herbicide to kill ivy, such as one with glyphosate, imazapyr, or triclopyr.
