"The entire team worked tirelessly to get the job done and make everything look great. Mr. Hill and Mr. Brook really listened to what we wanted and checked in with us to make sure the work was satisfactory. Mr. Brook was out there with his team working. Thereâ s peace of mind when we knew Mr. Hill or Mr. Brooks would always be onsite making sure everything was safe and going smoothly. Itâ s hard finding a trustworthy tree company thatâ s courteous, kind, knowledgeable and goes out of their way to make sure the jobâ s done right the first time. We will definitely be calling them again since they do more than just tree and brush work. We also will be using their services to maintain the health of our new and old trees. Also, when they talk to you they treat you like an equal and with respect. After living here for over 12 years, this is the best experience weâ ve had with a tree service. Iâ m so glad we found them through their door flier! They also do veteran discounts as well as employee veterans and all-around good hard-working guys!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Trees provide many benefits, including shade, habitat for local wildlife, and cleaner air, so it’s always a good idea to try an alternative strategy like crown reduction before you chop one down. But sometimes, cutting down a tree is the only option (like if it’s severely diseased). A licensed arborist can assess the tree and recommend the best course of action.

It will take you anywhere from 15 minutes to two hours per tree stump to grind and remove the stump from the ground. The larger the size, the longer it will take to remove the stump. Also, keep in mind that rocky soil may require local excavation services to loosen up large boulders before you can begin to remove the tree stump.

Generally speaking, you’ll want to avoid flush cuts, which are cuts made as extremely close to the trunk or main branch. These cuts can weaken your tree, lower its natural defense mechanisms, and even cause decay. You’ll also want to avoid tree topping, which is the total removal of the leader and upper main branches of a tree. 

Most pros will advise against either of these methods, which is why hiring a pro is often the best choice when it comes to tree trimming.

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. 

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.
