"We were thrilled that Callen was willing to take our project on. He quickly got us a reasonable quote and on the schedule within a reasonable amount of time. I hope the following candid honesty is valued in that it will help tune his service better over time. We’d have appreciated more proactive scheduling as there was a vague agreement as to the day, but not the time. We were pleased he came early and got it done quickly, but when we noticed the service locator had not marked utilities, I called to confirm the day. I saw him that morning and he claimed he had called 811, who never stopped by. So either that wasn’t true, or he could have done more to verify to protect the phone line we pointed out when the job was bid. I thought he would grind the stump deeper than he did, and I asked about it when he was done. It did not fulfill the expectation I understood when it was bit. However, we are glad to have the stumps ground and level with the yard."

"Easton was great to work with and we would highly recommend him! He built our road and a campsite area next to our house, and then we hired him again to do our pad for our barn and an arena. He was always on time, professional, and did work that has held up well. We will definitely hire him again if we need another project, especially because his prices were great. 10/10 recommend"

Blackmore Property Services is a locally owned and operated landscaping and property services company based right here in Bozeman, MT. I’m Bodin, the founder — I started this business because I saw a gap in reliable, professional outdoor services done by someone who actually cares about the quality of their work and their reputation in the community.\n\nWe specialize in landscape rock installation, debris hauling, junk removal, property cleanup, and ongoing property maintenance. Whether you need a full rock bed renovation, a seasonal cleanup, or a dependable maintenance partner, we show up on time, communicate clearly, and leave your property looking better than we found it.\n\nOur crew is small by design — that means you’re always getting experienced hands on the job, not whoever’s available that week. We’re fully insured with general liability and workers’ compensation coverage, so you can hire with confidence.

"Their work was excellent. I liked the text messaging and voice contacts that kept me up to date on the process. They removed a tall (dead) Aspen right next to my house and brought in the proper equipment to make sure everything went smoothly. I thought price/performance was first rate. The only reason I didn't give them straight 5.0s is a slight delay (unavoidable on their part) that I wasn't kept up to date on. I highly recommend them."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is highly recommended to remove tree stumps. Leaving them in the ground can lead to several problems, as they are not only unsightly but can also reduce your property's value. Stumps can obstruct landscaping plans, make mowing difficult, and hinder new growth. More importantly, they are prime breeding grounds for pests like termites, ants, and mice, which can spread to your home and cause costly damage to its wood and foundation. Stumps also attract fungi and diseases that can infect other healthy trees and plants in your yard. As a stump decays, it might sprout new, unwanted shoots. While removing a stump is an investment, it prevents these potential issues and enhances the safety, health, and appearance of your landscape.

Most plum trees are pruned into a vase or open wine glass shape. They’ll have a shorter central leader (the trunk) that supports three to four main branches. Of course, this isn't always the case. If you have a European plum tree, you can grow it in a pyramid shape. Let the central leader extend the length of the tree and prune smaller branches to create the pyramid.

You can use a felling ax to chop down a tree by following the same prep and steps as a chainsaw, but be prepared to use some muscle. For trees bigger than 7 inches in diameter, it can take some time and serious strength to cut down a tree using just an ax. 

Not all evergreen conifers need to be pruned, but some do. Pruning pine trees is not necessary, but you can do so during June and July if you wish. On the other hand, spruce, firs, and junipers do need to be pruned from late winter to early spring.

If you’re wondering why tree trunks are painted white in your area, it’s usually to prevent sunscald, a condition where extreme shifts in temperature can cause tree bark to split. Fruit trees are especially vulnerable to sunscald, so this treatment is worth considering if it’s something that affects your trees.
