Customers say: Quick response

"I used Angie's List to research a tree stump service in my area. There were two. Mr. Morrisey responded within 30 minutes of my inquiring about receiving service! He was polite, professional, and very reasonable. That was a Saturday morning and by Monday mid-morning, I had 13 stumps removed off of our property! We were very pleased with the efficiency and reasonable prices Mr. Morrisey provided to us. Would hightly recommend this company!"

"They were very good at cutting the tree down then cutting the logs and hauling them off and cleaning up the grounds. The tree was a Maple and it was very large and awkwardly growing the climber was very experienced. I was very surprised at how fast they did the job."

"He was a really nice man, followed up almost instantly from this format, was at my house a few hours later with a quote. Came and removed the tree to my specifications. I wanted the wood chips but wasn't there before they left to ask for them. I would definitely use them again if I have another huge tree that is going to blow over."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

For Bradford pears, damage from storms is common, and if the trunk splits, it can pose a danger to people and surrounding structures. The best thing to do in that instance is to have the tree removed. If there’s only minor damage to the branches, pruning away the damaged parts is the first order of business. You may also want to consult a professional arborist to make sure the tree is healthy.

Talking with a septic pro before planting trees near your tank is best to ensure the roots won’t interfere with your septic system. However, there is an easy way to figure out where to plant a tree—but you’ll need to know how tall it can get when it’s fully grown. For instance, if the tree can reach 50 feet, plant it at least 50 feet from your septic system.

A tree can split because of high winds, a change in temperature, or from an infestation or tree disease. All of these factors can overlap, making a single cause difficult to pinpoint. While winter storms are some of the most common causes for a tree to split, it can also happen because of termites or rot.

Generally, you do not have the right to take fruit from a neighbor's tree, even if the branches overhang your property. The fruit is considered the property of the tree's owner. While you may have the right to trim branches that cross into your yard, the fruit on them typically still belongs to your neighbor. However, laws can vary by state and municipality. In some areas, branches that extend into your yard or trees that straddle a property line may entitle you to some of the fruit. The best course of action is to speak with your neighbor, as they may be happy to share. If a conversation is not possible, check your local regulations before picking any fruit.

Yes, it is essential to confirm that any tree service company you hire is properly insured before they begin work. Tree removal, trimming, and pruning are dangerous jobs, and proper insurance protects you, your home, and the company from liability in case of accidents or damage. Look for a company that carries both general liability and workers’ compensation insurance, and do not hire one that cannot provide proof of coverage. When browsing for professionals, you can look for indicators like an “Angi Approved” badge, which signifies that the business meets standards like holding applicable licenses and passing a background check. Keep in mind that a license is a legal requirement to operate, while certifications are typically voluntary.
