"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

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.

After a big storm, you may not be sure if a tree was struck or not. Look for the telltale long scars, like strips or gouges in the bark of the tree, running in sometimes jagged lines down the length of the trunk. These scars will often show vulnerable living wood inside the tree. It’s also common to see scorched or wilted leaves on the side or top of the tree where lightning struck.

Trees provide many benefits, including shade, habitat for local wildlife, and cleaner air, so it’s always a good idea to try an alternative strategy like crown reduction before you chop one down. But sometimes, cutting down a tree is the only option (like if it’s severely diseased). A licensed arborist can assess the tree and recommend the best course of action.

Trees don’t usually grow back after being cut down. Some particularly robust tree species may start sending up new stems from a stump to recover, but those stems won’t become a “tree” like before. Generally, trees don’t recover from being entirely cut down, which is why it’s important to be careful when making a decision. When you cut down a tree, it’s a good idea to make plans to remove the stump, even if it’s unlikely to grow back.

Cutting down a tree next to power lines is never a DIY job, and it’s a good idea to contact your utility company first. In most cases, the utility company will need to take care of any tree problems within 10 to 15 feet of power lines. If you want to remove the tree for aesthetic reasons, hire a pro to do the job. Trying to cut trees near power lines yourself can create many safety hazards, and you could be liable if you inadvertently cause damage to electrical equipment.
