"I hired this contractor in Sturgis, Mississippi to cut the grass at a property that had been sitting vacant. The yard was extremely overgrown and the grass was very tall, so it was a major job from the start. He came out, walked the entire property with me, assessed the condition, and clearly explained his plan for how he would bring everything back under control. He and his team did an outstanding job. The transformation was incredible. What started as an overwhelming project ended up looking clean, neat, and well maintained. After the initial cut, he continued maintaining the lawn for the entire season. He was always on schedule, consistently on time, and the work was done impeccably every single visit. His pricing was fair and affordable, especially considering the size and condition of the job. I truly appreciated his professionalism, reliability, and attention to detail. I highly recommend his services to anyone in need of dependable, high quality lawn care."

"This company was exceptional. They came out gave me an estimate and within a day they were on site working. The work was timely and all debris was nicely removed. They even raked and removed the leaves that fell from the cut trees."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

No. Most of the time, suckers are only a sign that the tree is experiencing stress. However, they can also be the canary in the coal mine, letting you know that something else is stressing your tree. If you have lots of suckers on your tree, calling in an arborist or a tree care expert is always a good call to determine the cause and develop a solution that de-stresses your tree.

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.

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.

There are a few differences between tree guying and tree staking. Tree guying requires anchor stakes that are shorter and stronger than regular stakes and are driven deeper into the ground at an angle away from the tree. Tree staking uses longer stakes that are set parallel to the tree and are used for smaller trees. Consult a local tree professional to determine which method is best for your tree.

Unfortunately, palm tree stumps are one of the most difficult types to remove due to how their roots grow. Unlike other trees, palm tree roots grow horizontally and vertically. Palm tree roots grow as deep as three feet into the ground, although soil and growing conditions could mean they go as far as 50 inches into the earth. 

If you want to be able to repurpose the grass in the area where you removed a stump later, you’ll have to dig quite deep—and perhaps wide—to trim away all the roots.
