Was a slight delay because of bad weather but very prompt as soon as the weather permitted. I felt it was a little pricey but they

did quality work for their money. Owners and workers were professional and courteous. Would use them again if needed.

"Reynold and his team are the most reliable, honest, hard-working crew. Not only were his prices better than any quote we had gotten but they were thorough and reliable. I have hired Reynold multiple times over the years and would highly recommend him if you needed trees removed."

"From start to finish the guys from J & D Forestry were great to work with. I first called them asking them to give me a quote for some land clearing for a future shed I was going to build. Devin came out same day and provided me with a more than reasonable quote. I moved forward right then and there. The crew showed up within the next couple of days to knock out the job. Their equipment was clean and well taken care of, the work performed was professional and executed exactly how we discussed. I couldn’t have asked for a better job from J&D Forestry. By far the best forestry company I’ve dealt with and highly recommend these guys."

"I called them because the other tree service who set up on the 8th didnt show and when i called them pushed me off another week. I had a water line that needed repair in the yard and i had it all set up cor the 8th. I called L&m they showed up in 15 minutes and did the job for the same price and only left small amount of wood shavings. They are the best and had the job done in 2 hours. Thank you L&M!!!!!"

"We had two mature maple trees in our backyard close to our house that needed to come down. Randy gave us a great quote and Matt showed up with his team at 9am on a Saturday and did a fantastic job removing both trees in one day. They even removed the roots that had surfaced in the yard, and ground out the stumps. They were professional, friendly, and took the time to make sure the yard looked nice when finished. They even took a leaf blower to our patio. We would definitely hire them again."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Carefully pruning small roots no thicker than three inches in diameter won’t harm the tree. However, cutting larger roots may impact the tree's stability and nutrient absorption. It's advisable to consult an arborist or tree care professional to evaluate the root's size, the tree's health, and the potential impact of cutting. Proper tree pruning techniques and timing can minimize damage, but larger root removal may necessitate expert guidance to avoid compromising the tree's overall health and stability.

While there is a lot of debate about whether boiling water is strong enough to kill tree roots, it is not best to remove the roots from large, old trees. You may be able to weaken young roots enough to remove them manually, but boiling water will likely not do the trick for large root systems.

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.

In the short term, you’ll have a lot of fallen trees to deal with. Tree removal services costs typically start at $200 per tree and increase based on species and size. Then, you’ll have to deal with the loss of trees: That means a loss of shade and a greater risk of rain runoff and erosion. Also, you’ll miss out on the health and aesthetic benefits of having trees on your property, which could even affect the resale value of your home.

That being said, cutting down a tree it’s not always a bad idea. Trees growing too close to rooftops can present fire hazards or debris problems. You may need to remove diseased or dying trees to prevent future issues.

Planting trees far enough from your foundation will protect your home from root damage, but if you’re dealing with existing trees, you can still guard against roots. Root barriers form a physical boundary that will prevent roots from encroaching on your foundation and can help save you from expensive foundation repair costs.
