"Gave me one price to cut down two large trees and to trim another one up. The second day I was told the job would be bigger for the second tree so the price went up. Then they cut one branch off the third and left a mess around the tree. A different guy came out to collect payment when they were close to finished, I got him to knock 200 off the bill and it still came out too high for me. If I had known they would not finish work on the third tree I would have asked for more of the price before I paid. If the second guy was able to give me 200 off the price, it means that I was overcharged, to begin with."

"The service done involved shrubbery and ornamental tree trimming and a clean up of landscaping gone amuck. I did not have any deadline nor did I know exactly what I needed, but I needed help to get some order back to our landscaping. Greg was courteous and knowledgeable explaining not only what he could do but what the various plants/shrubbery/trees needed. He had some nasty weather to work through and the job was finished just before company and Thanksgiving. The work he did made a very noticeable improvement with the landscaping. I was very pleased with the work done and very pleased that Greg was professional and courteous in his approach to this job. I would recommend this service to others in a heartbeat. Our landscaping, although we are in Fall approaching Winter, actually looks like someone cares for it. Thanks GS Outdoor Services."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

If you’re wondering whether you can plant a tree where the stump was removed, know that the soil conditions won’t be ideal, so you should avoid it. The soil beneath the previous tree will likely be depleted of nutrients, plus there may be roots left behind that will seriously hinder the growth of a new tree. Also, if you use salt or other chemical solutions to kill the stump, these can linger in the soil for months or even years and prevent healthy growth. It’s best to choose a different spot that’s at least three feet away for a new tree, or wait at least a year and thoroughly amend the soil before you plant.

A dead tree should always be cut down, because it could fall and cause injuries or damage, and it can also attract insects like carpenter ants. A tree that’s diseased beyond repair should also be cut down, but it’s not always easy for a homeowner to tell. Signs of disease include dying branches, a hollow trunk, leaning, and discolored or missing leaves, but your best bet is to hire a local arborist who can evaluate the tree and tell you if it can be saved or should be cut down.

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.

If you don’t stake a tree that needs support, it could be at greater risk of being damaged or failing completely, whether it uproots or falls over. That could cause damage to your property or other surrounding trees. If you want to grow healthy trees, you may need to stake them for best results.

If a tree isn’t pruned, it can inhibit proper growth and fruit production, cause damage to both the tree and your property, and create entry points for pests and diseases. Pruning a tree enhances its stability, appearance, shape, and growth. Pruning trees regularly can also save you money long-term by avoiding overgrown or dangerous dying trees.
