"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."

"Luke was amazing. He gave us a quick quote that was reasonable. He started and worked when he said he would. He kept us updated and sent pictures afterward. The quality of his work was excellent. I was so pleased with his work. He went above and beyond by doing a couple extra things for us as we were out of state. I would and will recommend him to anyone looking for a professional quality painter!"
After.. what an amazing difference!

"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

You should avoid cutting off the top of mature cherry trees. This process is called tree topping, and it’s not recommended for cherry trees—or any trees, for that matter. Tree topping removes between one-third to half of the length of the tree trunk, resulting in structurally unsound, fruitless suckers. The only exception is for saplings. Young pie, sour, and tart cherry trees that are over 30 inches tall in the fall or winter before the tree blooms can benefit from heading cuts.

Dead tree branches should be removed, because they can cause the tree to lose nutrients. They can also make the tree more susceptible to disease and pests. Removing dead and diseased branches can help the tree recover and increase the odds of saving a dying tree. Make sure to prune the tree correctly to avoid damaging it further.

A tree can grow back from its stump, but full regrowth is unlikely (especially for more stubborn conifer trees). Instead, trees are more likely to send up a number of shoots from the dead stump, which will try to develop into primary stems over time. In other words, it will start to look increasingly bushy. The goal of killing and drying out a tree stump is to prevent that from happening, as well as make the stump easier to completely remove.

Aim to have your trees inspected and pruned in early spring. At this point in the year, tree service professionals can note where there is old growth from winter and cut that back to encourage new growth for the rest of the year. Pruning at the wrong time of the year could make your trees prone to diseases.

Tree roots are hearty and complex systems, so they don’t die immediately after the rest of the tree is removed. If you leave the root system in place, it takes anywhere from two to seven years for it to run out of nutrients. It is worth noting, however, that the roots stop growing and expanding after cutting down the rest of the tree.
