"I highly recommend KC Tree Specialist if you need any tree removal services. They kept us informed of weather issues, and arrived promptly to remove our tree. The tree was down and removed faster than we could have imagined. They worked quickly, AND safely, and even cleaned out gutters on the house! Thank you, KC Specialist! Excellent service!"

"We had Davidson Lawn Care install our Christmas lights this year, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. Their communication throughout the process was clear and consistent—they kept us updated on scheduling and answered all of our questions promptly. We were impressed by how quickly they got us on the calendar. The lights are perfectly symmetrical, evenly spaced, and securely fastened. They paid attention to details like clean corners, straight lines along the roofline, and balanced placement around windows and landscaping. Everything looks professional and well thought out, with no dangling cords or uneven sections."

"Ben and his crew did a spectacular job of transforming our side garden from a weed infested train wreck to an absolute beauty spot. His estimate was spot on, he arrived when he said he would and got the project done earlier than anticipated. He and his workers were unfailingly quiet and polite. This is one of the best experiences we have ever had with a household project. Hire him! You won't be sorry!"

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.

Transporting a fully-grown tree requires heavy equipment, typically specialized for the task. A tree spade is a truck-mounted tool that removes the tree from the ground in one location, transports it, and places it in a new hole in a new location. A combination of mechanized shovels and lifts is necessary to move very large trees, and the exact tools often depend on location and the surrounding area.

Hiring an arborist or tree surgeon is usually more expensive than a standard tree company, but it is often worth the investment. Arborists have education and certifications that standard companies typically lack, leading to a more professional, expert-level service. Their expertise is particularly valuable for diseased or infested trees, as they can ensure safer removal and help prevent the issue from spreading. Additionally, arborists may be necessary for work near power lines, as uncertified companies are often not permitted to service these trees. If your goal is to preserve the health of your trees, an arborist is the best choice. Their services, such as stump grinding, are also performed with greater expertise to ensure a safe depth that won't cause your lawn to collapse over time.

It’s possible, although a lot depends on the cause of damage and what steps you take. If the remaining parts of the maple tree are alive and not under attack by disease or pests, they can often be saved even if large portions of the maple tree have died. Frequent watering, careful pruning, mulch, and any recommended fungicides or insecticides can all help with survival.

If it’s your property, then you can plant a tree near power lines, but it’s not the best idea. Any vegetation that grows within 10 feet or so of power lines will fall under the responsibility of the utility company, and they may trim or remove it as necessary. If you do move forward with your plan, try to choose a smaller ornamental tree, plant it as far away from the power lines as you can, and keep it trimmed to avoid future problems.
