"The job required digging up a lot of invasive plants under a large oak tree in clay soil. We had to dig 4 to 6 inches down. The work was done well. He was very friendly. We just had some problems with scheduling. Other than that great help."

"We had to have two pine trees cut. One in the front yard and a really big one in the back. They did an amazing job. And made sure that the yard was cleaned up afterwards. They are very friendly and professional. Would very much recommend them!"

"I had a MASSIVE tree that was "V" shaped in my front yard. I was made aware of the fact that it was beginning to split in the middle and the heavy side was leaning toward my house. I found Landworx LLC on Angie's list last night. I began to communicate with Matt Riley and expressed the urgency of the situation bc this tree would have absolutely destroyed my home if/when it fell. Matt was at my home this morning at 6am and had a crew there by mid morning today. They worked tirelessly all day long to safely remove the tree, haul it off, clean up debris, and eliminate the threat to my house. He provided me with insurance and licensure verification without any hesitation. I sincerely cannot thank them enough! Great people to work with at very fair price points and he absolutely does what he says he will do. Highly recommend! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!"

Arborists 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.

A grafted tree is a tree grown by combining two trees. It takes expertise. Branches from grafted trees don’t grow strong roots. Save yourself the time and frustration by having an arborist help you with this advanced project.  

You can often tell if a tree is grafted because it will have a noticeable line. Above the line, the bark will look different than it does below the line. It’s most common with fruit trees.

Burning a tree stump can be effective, but it comes with safety considerations and isn’t always best for every situation. It's essential to check local regulations and assess the safety risks involved. Stumps that are near wooden structures or other non-moveable flammable objects aren’t good candidates for burning due to the risk of the fire spreading. Alternatives like grinding or a DIY stump rotting project might be safer and quicker for getting the job done.

Most experts recommend removing a tree that has sustained more than 25% loss in the limbs, trunk, or circumference of the bark. Doing an initial trimming of damaged and dangling branches, but then waiting a few days of monitoring to decide how much more you might need to cut can help you better assess the total damage to the tree. However, consulting a tree maintenance pro to make this determination the best course of action before removing a tree.

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.
