"I'd hired 3 different people to take care of my tree, but noone ever showed up to do the job. With a snow storm coming I was desperate to get it done to prevent damage to my home. I called this company at 10 am the day of the storm. The tree was done by noon. Courteous and excellent service. I'd recommend them to anyone who asks."

"Noah and Crew actually built a Pole Barn for me. It’s 30’x48’ with attic trusses. They did an amazing job, it’s actually so nice I wish we didn’t cover it in tin metal! Perfectly square and amazing craftsmanship. Noah is very talented and trustworthy. I will most definitely be using him for other projects that we have. I’m also going to have him install a tin roof on my 1907 House. Thank you Noah and God Bless you Brother!"

"They removed 3 very large trees one was completely rotted out in the center. These trees were very close to my garage and the neighbors privacy fence. They was able to bring the trees down safely with no property damage. They also took down 4 smaller trees. The stumps were ground then dirt brought in, ground leveled, and grass planted. My yard is completely transformed. Great company great crew. Professional service."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Licensing requirements for arborists, also known as tree surgeons, vary by state and municipality. Many areas require a license, which often involves specialized education and experience. Even if not mandated, it's wise to hire a licensed professional as they tend to have more experience. Beyond licensing, look for certifications from organizations like the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) or the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA), as this indicates a higher level of expertise. Certified arborists must typically pass a comprehensive exam. Always confirm that the arborist has a business license and is fully insured to protect yourself from liability. Seeking positive recommendations from local homeowners is also a good step in finding a qualified professional.

Pruning trees is important for several reasons. It improves tree health and strength by removing dead, diseased, or unwanted branches, which in turn encourages new growth and can help treat disease. For fruit trees, proper pruning can lead to a larger and better-quality harvest. Pruning also enhances safety by removing weak limbs that could break and fall, potentially causing injury or property damage, especially during storms. Beyond these functional benefits, pruning can also improve a tree's appearance. To ensure pruning is done correctly for the tree's long-term health, consider hiring a professional.

How often and long you should water a tree depends on the species and if it is mature or newly planted. The amount of water is also based on the tree's size. A good rule of thumb is approximately 5 gallons per inch of the trunk's diameter.

Adjusting watering to the recommended suggestions for the tree type and weather conditions is vital. For instance, watering trees during a drought is necessary, and you may need to water more frequently than usual.

No. Topping a tree refers to severely cutting down all its major branches and tree in a straight line. It was once recommended for streetside deciduous trees but has fallen out of practice. Topping leads to many problems, removing so much of the tree that many trees struggle to survive and become much more vulnerable to insects and diseases. Also, it doesn’t really help tree growth as once assumed and often leads to an ugly appearance of many sprouting stems in competition to become new main branches.

You may be looking to identify maple trees to use for home improvement projects. In that case, you can tell hard maples by looking at their leaves. Leaves will have a U-shaped dip, or sinus, between the points, or lobes, of the leaves. Leaves of soft maples tend to have V-shaped sinuses.

If you already have the cut wood in front of you, look for a light, uniform color to identify hard maple wood and check for variations of red, gray, or brown streaks and an overall darker color in soft maple wood.
