"They showed up on time. Worked efficiently and I couldn't be happier with the results. I highly recommend them. We had our backyard filled the grass and weeds were taken out and reseeded. The grass is coming in great, can't wait to see it next year and mow on even footing."

"It is hard for me to believe that we are A&E Tree's first Angie's List Review!  What an honor.  These guys did a fantastic job trimming and pruning our overgrown trees.  They have all the equipment you can imagine.  Erik and his crew were amazing, very friendly and polite.  They were very clean and despite all their hard work, they were phenomenal on the cleanup.  This was a major concern for us as we had seen many other tree services contractors in for the quick buck and left a mess.  The pricing was very competitive.  I would recommend A&# tree for all your tree trimming and tree removal / stump removal without hesitation.

I saw "The Big Deal" advertising $500 worth of tree service for $199 from Classic Tree Care.  I purchased the coupon thinking it was a pretty good deal, but I didn't realize my mistake until after I made the purchase.  After I purchased the coupon I had a representative from the company come out and he quoted me $1350 to remove the tree.  They also recommended I have two other Mulberry trees removed from my yard because they are "Undesirable."  I only wanted the one removed because it was practically my roommate.  I'm a new homeowner and I knew tree removal was expensive, but I didn't think it would be THAT expensive.  When the rep left I felt like he was trying to get one over on me; regardless of whether or not that is true.  I decided to get a second opinion and asked for a quote from another provider who was offering a coupon on their work; Most Wanted Tree Care.


Adam came out and quoted me $400 to remove the tree, not including the stump.  He struck me as a real-world, no BS kinda guy-something I certainly appreciate.  I could hardly believe it.  I booked it on the spot and purchased their coupon $199 for $400 worth of tree service.  They were supposed to come on a Tuesday but the team had been double booked so they rescheduled for Friday.  Friday came and brought thunderstorms (out of their control) so they came on Saturday.  I really have zero complaints, because I had a tree removed from my yard for $199, and it seemed like they put a real effort forth to get it done as soon as possible.  They were quick, non-intrusive, and took the lumber with them. 


I am extremely happy with my experience and would definitely use them again.  I've had a decent amount of work done to my new home since the purchase at the end of March, and this was by far the least stressful part.  The other work I have had done is very high quality, and I paid for that quality.  With Most Wanted Tree Care I feel like I got the same type of quality for a very reasonable price.

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

No, you should never top maple trees. Topping injures the tree and leads to the rapid growth of a weak canopy, which can be hazardous to rooftops and utility lines. Removing the crown can also leave the interior bark vulnerable to sun damage, leading to insects and disease. A topped tree can also reduce property value and permanently damage the appearance of a tree.

On grafted trees, tree suckers will grow from the root stock, not the branches grafted onto it. Therefore, the leaves and characteristics of the suckers aren’t the same as the tree because they are different varieties. Root stock has more hardiness, strength, or drought tolerance than its grafted limbs, so if the suckers are from fruit or flowers, it might be different than the main part of your tree.

If you’re looking to rot a tree stump fast, potassium nitrate will work far quicker than copper nails. First, drill several holes into the stump using a power drill, then pour potassium nitrate pellets into the holes. Next, add water to help the chemical absorb into the wood, thoroughly soaking the stump to ensure the pellets dissolve and spread evenly. Afterward, cover the stump with a tarp to retain moisture and block sunlight, then place mulch on top to secure it in place.

You can use the formula mentioned earlier to calculate the depth of tree roots. Each inch of width of a tree trunk translates to six inches of depth within the root system. Large trees extend anywhere from 2 to 6 feet into the ground, with some magnificent specimens going even deeper.
