The quality of their work was outstanding, with every detail meticulously handled to perfection. Their team exhibited remarkable professionalism, showing up on time, maintaining clear communication, and staying committed to the project timeline.

"The whole experience was amazing. After calling and leaving a message about what I was needing done (had let my yard go and it was very bad) I was contacted within an hour of leaving the message and set up a time for Scott to come over and check the job out. Scott came over the very next day to examine the work that I needed to be done. Thought the price was going to be out of the ballpark, but found it to be very reasonable. Once they were able to do the job, they completed the work quickly and made my yard look 110% better than it did. With what they accomplished at this time of the year here in MT, I can't wait to see what they can do in the spring. Thanks to the Ground Guys I now have a yard I can be proud of."

"I hired Shawn for some basic repairs (replacing exhaust fan, fixing molding, door repair, etc.) and he did an excellent job. Based on his expertise, pricing and quality of work I had him replace the flooring in my rental. He did an excellent job. I just kept giving him more tasks a d jobs until my renal looked phenomenal and I was able to place it in the market. So glad to have found him as I know I’ll use him for many jobs in the future."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Transporting a fully-grown tree requires heavy equipment, typically specialized for the task. A tree spade is a truck-mounted tool that removes the tree from the ground in one location, transports it, and places it in a new hole in a new location. A combination of mechanized shovels and lifts is necessary to move very large trees, and the exact tools often depend on location and the surrounding area.

There are a few differences between tree guying and tree staking. Tree guying requires anchor stakes that are shorter and stronger than regular stakes and are driven deeper into the ground at an angle away from the tree. Tree staking uses longer stakes that are set parallel to the tree and are used for smaller trees. Consult a local tree professional to determine which method is best for your tree.

The cost of professional tree trimming averages $460, with a typical range between $200 and $760. However, prices can be as low as $75 or as high as $1,800 depending on several factors. The size and type of the tree are major cost drivers; for example, trimming Crepe Myrtle trees costs an average of $80 to $400, while trimming giant pine trees can range from $200 to $1,800. Other factors that influence the price include the time of year, as services are often more costly in the spring. The tree's accessibility and your location also play a role, as a remote or hard-to-reach tree may increase the cost. Some professionals may offer a discount if you have multiple trees to trim.

How often and long you should water a tree depends on the species and if it is mature or newly planted. The amount of water is also based on the tree's size. A good rule of thumb is approximately 5 gallons per inch of the trunk's diameter.

Adjusting watering to the recommended suggestions for the tree type and weather conditions is vital. For instance, watering trees during a drought is necessary, and you may need to water more frequently than usual.

Professionals use assessments, strategic cuts, specialized equipment, and safety measures to ensure healthy growth or the safe removal of trees or shrubs.
