"Excellent! Frazer's Tree Service was doing some work in my neighborhood Thursday. Spouse and I had been talking about getting a tree removed for some time, so I went over to get a phone number. The owner (Charles) walked back with me to look at the problem tree and gave me an estimate on the spot. He said if it wasn't raining, he could work me in today (Saturday). He showed up promptly at 9:00 this morning with a crew of four and had everything down, chipped, picked up, and loaded before 11:00. Clean up was outstanding and he was very protective of the lawn (they carried the tree parts to the fence and threw them over rather than driving in the yard). He even blew out the chain saw chips that had fallen at the base of the tree. He said it was an easy job because he could fell the tree all at once rather than having to take it down a piece at a time. He did so well, I'm having him bid another larger (and more complicated) job Monday in Maryville, MO. If we can come to terms on that one, I'll let you know how it goes."

"They showed up on time. Worked efficiently and I couldn't be happier with the results. I highly recommend them. We had our backyard filled the grass and weeds were taken out and reseeded. The grass is coming in great, can't wait to see it next year and mow on even footing."

"Steve Lynch showed up on time, gave me a copy of his certificate of insurance and was ready to go to work. He told me how he was planning to drop the tee. This tree was located between the barn and the gazebo, on a hill. He climbed the tree, trimmed it and then cut the tree and it fell right where he said it would. After the big oak tee, he trimmed the sycamore, which was even bigger and closer to the gazebo. Again no problems. My wife was happy with the outcome of the sycamore, she really likes that tree. Steve finished his work and I will hire him again."

"A large cottonwood tree had fallen between our yard and the neighbors. Our neighbor had used this service before and they responded quickly to his inquiry. Several services that we had used previously failed to respond even over a week later. KC tree services did such a fine job with removing the cottonwood that we inquired about them also trimming three large walnuts in our backyard that we had been looking to have trimmed. Initially they were going to come back later in the week but instead they were able to extend their day and finish that up also the same day. They did a great job of trimming the tees by taking the the weight off certain areas and removing dead branches. They were interactive with us when trimming to ensure that they met our goals and cleaned up well afterwards. Since we have had much trimming and trees taken down over the years we knew they were price competitive and did good work. We highly recommend their services."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Trees naturally want to grow upward, so one may straighten all by itself, though this only comes into play when a tree is leaning just a small amount. For trees growing into an awkward position or those leaning heavily in one direction, the above steps are necessary to ensure the tree gets back on the right path. This also holds true for trees planted in a spot with unstable soil.

We don’t recommend DIY tree trimming for a few different reasons. First, the tools required to trim a tree can be costly, up to $1,100 or more, for the ladders and specialized saws needed. 

Safety is another concern, especially when working with more mature trees. As a guideline, you should only DIY tree trimming when branches are less than two inches in diameter. Any more, and the safety risk becomes too high, which could lead to catastrophe. For this job, it’s safest to let a tree-trimming professional assess the work needed.

Ideally, you’ll have a good enough relationship with your neighbors that you can kindly mention this task in regular conversation. However, every neighbor (and neighborhood) is different. Your best bet will always be to ask directly and nicely, offering to contribute to the tree trimming efforts if you’d like. However, if you are bothered by the tree and your neighbor is unwilling to cut it, you can involve the help of the homeowners’ association or local authorities, if applicable.

Although it’s possible, heavy machinery like a crane is necessary for removing an entire tree stump and all. This procedure is extremely costly, time-consuming, and usually unnecessary, as there are plenty of convenient and affordable stump removal options. 

Your best bet, if you want to be sure to remove a tree and its stump efficiently, is to speak with a professional. They’ll be able to walk you through the entire process.

It’s not always easy to tell when a tree is dying, although signs like dropping branches and brittle bark can sometimes offer clues. It can also be difficult to know whether a tree is dead or dormant, especially if it’s a deciduous tree. You’ll want to wait until a growth season to get a good idea of a tree’s health. When in doubt, contact an arborist for a consultation.
