"Lumpton Lawn and Landscape are an excellent landscaping service. I needed a large project of overgrown grass, vines, and tree removal done. They came out and gave me a fair quote and timeline. Took before, during, and after photos to keep me posted because I live out of state. He communicated everything and made a stressful situation for me back to normal. Since he did such a fantastic job, I hired him to continue to keep the yard cut and maintained. Absolutely recommend to anyone needing lanscaping work."

"Alex was very flexible with arranging a meet time for quote/estimate. Very quickly and professionally assessed my needs and made recommendations. He then returned the following week to trim a 1/4 acre of overgrown bushes and trees. The yard looks great and I'm looking forward to keeping him on for regular business!"

"Great job taking down the dead widow-maker tree at the front of our property. Also removed several smaller trees and their stumps. Very reasonably priced. Jerry was hard at it for every minute while maintaining a safe site. Thanks, --Burl"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

If a tree isn’t pruned, it can inhibit proper growth and fruit production, cause damage to both the tree and your property, and create entry points for pests and diseases. Pruning a tree enhances its stability, appearance, shape, and growth. Pruning trees regularly can also save you money long-term by avoiding overgrown or dangerous dying trees.

Salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, and burning can all help dissolve a tree stump. You can also bury the tree stump in soil or mulch to help it rot naturally. Killing a tree stump prevents future regrowth, but you may also remove it by digging it out or grinding it.

DIY is risky and not recommended for large trees; professional services ensure safe removal and proper disposal.

If you don’t stake a tree that needs support, it could be at greater risk of being damaged or failing completely, whether it uproots or falls over. That could cause damage to your property or other surrounding trees. If you want to grow healthy trees, you may need to stake them for best results.

Trees are beneficial to the environment and wildlife. If you have an old tree, but it’s healthy, it may be best to avoid cutting it down. However, if it’s showing signs of bug infestation, disease, or is potentially hazardous, then you should contact a tree removal company to cut it down. 

If you are unsure whether you should have it removed or not, then speak with an arborist to determine what is best.
