I have spent the last seven years learning and perfecting the services I offer. Customer Service, quality and efficiency are what I strive for. I graduated college in 2020 with a degree in marketing and a certificate in professional sales. After graduating I did various jobs until my friend convinced me to try framing restaurants. That experience sparked a passion working with my hands. I told myself I would further my skills and use what I learned in college to form my own business. I am not your average handyman. I had a long term goal that has come to fruition, and you will be treated with the utmost respect and professionalism. I am building a stellar reputation. If I take on a job I will always complete it to your satisfaction, and I will always be honest if I do not feel confident!

"Greg came out and gave us a great quote for trees we needed removed. He was out a little over a week later to do the work. He and his crew were very courteous and hard workers. They removed 26 leyland cypress trees for me in a very precarious location with ease. We even had them add in another tree and they got all of them down in one day and came back the following morning to clean up and get the rest of the tree trunks.

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Using Epsom salt to kill a tree stump will take between six and 12 months. While this method may seem extended, it significantly speeds up the natural stump decomposition process, which can take up to seven years. If you’d like to DIY remove a tree stump and it’s not causing any immediate harm or danger, using Epsom salt to kill it slowly is a viable removal option. 

Depending on the severity of the damage, a tree might continue healing for years after a split or a break. Saplings can usually bounce back in the spring in one or two seasons, but larger trees might take a few years to regain their former strength. If your tree is showing strong growth and is not dropping limbs, you can consider it healed after the first two seasons.

The typical lifespan of a Bradford pear is relatively short, only 15 to 25 years. However, these trees have issues long before their life is over. Due to their soft wood and fast-growing branches, Bradford pear trees often split around 15 years, making them a risk for falling branches and more prone to disease. 

In nature, there are many things that can cause a tree to die, including diseases, insects, and natural disasters such as fires or droughts. Non-natural methods of killing a tree include herbicides or manual intervention, such as cutting it down. Consult a tree removal professional about your options for naturally killing a tree.

Pruning trees during the summer can be a bad idea because the new growth will take place during the hottest months of the year, which can stress your tree out. Similarly, pruning during the early fall can be a bad idea, too, because you’d be stimulating new growth when most trees are aiming to go dormant. 

Pruning recommendations will vary by the type of tree, but generally, waiting until winter to prune your trees is a good idea.
