"I recommend A & M Tree Services LLC because they do excellent work at fair prices. They responded to my request for an estimate quickly and arrived on time to provide it. I accepted it and there was an opening the next day. The crew arrived the next morning and had my large tree removed and the yard cleaned up by afternoon."

"Envirogreen was one of many tree service companies I called on for a tee removal... I was impressed on the timely manner they got the job done. From the time Ryan came out to give me a bid, and actually completed the removal, of the tree, and the stump, and hauled off all the debris, was less than a week. I would definitely recommend Envirogreen. They were professional, knowledgeable, and were reasonably priced. I will hire them in the future for other services."

"This contractor promptly responded and gave an estimate to trim and shape 2 spiral pine trees. The crew came out the same day to start work. Trees were cut to the requested height and cleaned up. The trees did not look very good after the trimming. Per request, the crew returned and did a fantastic job removing the trees to make way for new trees. Great job, and thank you for the fantastic customer service."

"We cannot say enough good things about Jay’s Firewood and Mulch. This was our second time using them, and once again, they exceeded every expectation. They came out to cut down two very large, very dead trees that were an extreme hazard. After seeing how dangerous the trees were, they recognized immediately that they needed to come down right away. Their professionalism, knowledge, and urgency truly stood out. Not only did they safely remove both trees, but they also cleaned up all of the debris and left everything looking great. Their level of care and professionalism is unmatched. Honestly, they essentially saved our lives by taking care of such a dangerous situation before something terrible happened. We will absolutely continue using Jay’s Firewood and Mulch and will recommend them to everyone we know. Reliable, professional, hardworking, and genuinely caring, we are so thankful for them!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Completely topping a plum tree is a risky business. Cut too much, and you’ll kill your tree. That said, you do need to trim the top of your tree to encourage bushy growth, maintain your tree’s vase shape, and limit size. 

A plum tree's central leader (or trunk) should never extend more than 3 feet above the highest branch. When you first plant your tree, cut the central leader so it’s 2 to 3 feet tall. As it grows, cut it back 12 to 20 inches until it reaches its desired height. Never prune more than one-third of the new growth.

Horticulturist is a broad term for any type of plant and soil expert. An arborist, meanwhile, specializes in all aspects of tree care. You should hire an arborist when you need assistance with tree-related tasks, such as pruning large trees, removing trees, diagnosing a sick tree, or emergency tree services. Horticulturists aren’t qualified to handle those types of tasks.

If executed correctly your tree should survive after being transplanted to a new spot. However, effective transplanting requires six months, careful root pruning, safe transport to the new location, and replanting in prime soil conditions. You’ll also need an appropriately sized root ball for a complete tree transplant. A good rule of thumb is that, for every inch in diameter, your tree’s root ball needs to be around 11 inches. So a tree with a diameter of six inches needs a root ball of approximately 66 inches.

In general, trees should be planted no closer than 15 to 20 feet from your foundation. For larger trees with far-reaching roots like maples, oaks, or poplars, a good guide is to plant as many feet from your home as the tree’s height is expected to reach at maturity. Some trees, like elms and willows, should only be planted far from where their roots may encounter sewer or water lines.

Yes, forestry mulching can grind stumps, but the level of effectiveness depends on the equipment used. Drum mulchers can break down smaller stumps, but larger or deep-rooted stumps may require a dedicated stump grinder for complete removal. If full stump removal is necessary for replanting or construction, additional excavation may be needed. Always check with your forestry mulching provider to confirm whether they offer stump grinding and if their equipment is suitable for your specific needs.
