"Wonderful company. Their attention to detail was outstanding. I had a large oak tree next to my house removed. They were extremely careful and left my yard cleaner than it was before they came. I highly recommend C Gull tree service and will hire them again in the future."

"Adam's Tree Service did an amazing job with the five (5) trees I wanted taken down, taken away, and grinding down the stumps!! Had two other companies (referred by someone) come by and one agreed to a price, but never showed back up. After that, I looked up a tree service and Adam's Tree Service popped up. I called, and Adam's Tree Service was able to come by my property that day and we agreed on a price. The price was so reasonable for what I was asking. He told me that it could take his crew about 3 weeks before getting started but would call me to let me know when they will start (this is vacation property). Because of the price I was quoted, I worried that it would be another no show. Well, after only two weeks, I received a phone call to let me know that they would be at the property. When I returned to the property, all the work was done, and I was very satisfied!! I spoke with my neighbors who told me that she had never seen a tree service crew work as well as this crew worked. She said that she had spoken with them and they were very polite and worked hard. If I have any other trees to be removed, I will be calling Adam's Tree Service!!!! Also, I would highly recommend their services to everyone!!!!"

"Workhorse sent a crew of 4 to take down a medium sized, multi-trunk tree. They were finished in an hour and cleaned up afterwards. I was very pleased and recommend them highly. They are a handyman service so I'll be in contact with them about some future projects I have."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

While there is a lot of debate about whether boiling water is strong enough to kill tree roots, it is not best to remove the roots from large, old trees. You may be able to weaken young roots enough to remove them manually, but boiling water will likely not do the trick for large root systems.

While trees can grow in the curb strip between the sidewalk and the street, this placement often poses the problem of interfering with overhead power lines. It’s best to consult your local utility provider and tree planting service before transplanting a tree that might grow into power lines. Also, you should never work within 20 feet of a live power line to avoid the risk of electric shock. Tree branches should never touch nearby power lines, so it’s essential to ensure your tree isn’t in danger of growing too close to them.

You’ll have to balance up the cost, the value of the tree (sentimental or otherwise), and the risk factors. An experienced arborist will help you understand whether transplanting is likely to be successful. The cost and hassle of transplanting a large, well-established tree are often not worth it, especially if the species is fast-growing and easy to source. The decision depends on the age and species of the tree, the conditions in the new site location, and how careful the company is when digging out and moving the tree.

In general, trees should be planted no closer than 15 to 20 feet from your foundation. For larger trees with far-reaching roots like maples, oaks, or poplars, a good guide is to plant as many feet from your home as the tree’s height is expected to reach at maturity. Some trees, like elms and willows, should only be planted far from where their roots may encounter sewer or water lines.

No. Topping a tree refers to severely cutting down all its major branches and tree in a straight line. It was once recommended for streetside deciduous trees but has fallen out of practice. Topping leads to many problems, removing so much of the tree that many trees struggle to survive and become much more vulnerable to insects and diseases. Also, it doesn’t really help tree growth as once assumed and often leads to an ugly appearance of many sprouting stems in competition to become new main branches.
