"They talked to me before they started and made every effort to accommodate my desires. They took great care to not damage my trees. I was very impressed with the bucket truck driver and his manipulation of the the boom. I have a lot of trees very close together and he didnâ t crack or break anything with the machinery."

"I wanted two trees pruned and canopy raised on trees with young branches, some ontop of my roof and nearby neighbors roof. BnR presented a business card, wore a company logo on shirt, presented a license on his cell phone, assured he performed professional experienced service. BnR (Brian Rutherford quoted me $750 for 2 trees but $500 minimum for one and would not agree to less even with the issues that arose. BnR arrived around 4:30 PM with a large bucket truck and small back shovel. I was told the backshovel would fit through my gate and around an air conditioner. Upon arrival it was clear that the backshovel would not fit through my gate and BnR wanted to dismantle my fence. Luckily I asked my neighbor permission to operate from their yard which allowed access. BnR attempted to move the large truck onto neighbor's yard where it began to sank, especially after days of rain and soil enudation which I cautioned BnR's plan. BnR pulled the large equipment off lawn and a worker tried to repair it before switching to the backshovel. Brian had one worker climb into the shovel and use a pole-saw to prune while another climbed upon the roof to cut some branches laying on roof. BnR did not prune all the branches that needed pruning and they worked by twilight and it was very dark when they finished around 6:30 PM. This may have contributed to the pruning not to my desires. I stayed nearby the whole time and although we reviewed the job again with Brian before his workers arrived with the equipment, I kept reminding him to prune certain branches during the job. These were kind workers but $500 was pricey for the job."

"They responded promtly to my request for lawn services. They even came out the same day to look at my lawn for a fair estimate. Discussed with my needs for lawn care as well as scheduling future visits for services. They came out when they said to do my service. When i returned home that evening I was so impressed and elated. It was definitely worth every dollar spent! I would gladly recommend them to any one in the area in need of lawn services."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

The best time to prune Japanese flowering cherry trees depends on where you live and the type of flowering cherry tree. Some trees benefit from being pruned toward the end of winter or early spring, after the last freeze. Meanwhile, other trees do well after blooming, in late spring or early summer. Avoid pruning your flowering cherry tree in the early winter, as this encourages open wounds that can lead to infections or infestations. 

Palm trees will not regrow from a stump once the tree has been cut down. This type of tree is unique because the root and stump system will slowly decay after the tree is gone, unlike other species that can regrow. That’s why it’s preferable to remove dead or decaying palm tree stumps quickly as they can become an eyesore and don’t offer future growing potential.

If you want to take your tree-planting hobby beyond your outdoor space, here are a few great ways to do it:

  • Encourage your neighbors to participate in the Arbor Day Foundation’s Tree City USA program, which has a four-step framework that helps communities grow and maintain their own tree cover.

  • Support businesses that plant trees. 

  • Lobby your local government to plant more trees around your community.

  • Donate to a tree-planting charity.
