"I've worked with many tree companies over decades of home ownership, Hyler is my favorite. Greg Hyler and team were an absolute pleasure to work with from start-to-finish. A skilled, experienced, and very friendly team. They took down difficult trees that could have easily caused damage to the yard with total skill, climbing when needed, dropping when it made the most sense, and doing their work with respect to the yard and surroundings. They showed-up right when they said they would (day and time), the estimating process was a breeze, and the cost was extremely reasonable."

"Rodney Huskins did a fantastic job! He not only contacted me right away, he came out the same day and gave me a very competitive price. He scheduled the work the following week and showed up as promised. I will use him again when the need arises."

"Alexander Excavating are very professional and are experienced very well in their business. We hired them to bring crush and run for our driveway, (approximately 125ft) plus widening of the space in front of our garage. They were here to do the job within 2 days and did prove to be very good at their job! They used a dump truck to deliver the product (approx. 17 ton) of the crush and run (our specific job took 2-1/2 loads to complete) and used a skid steer to spread the gravel to extend from our garage to the back of our house and down the 125 ft driveway. They did a very excellent job and proved to be very quick and thorough in their work and we are so very happy with the way it turned out! We would highly recommend them to take care of your driveway needs and they are very knowledgeable in the type of product necessary to complete the job. Pricing was very comparable and they definitely took great care of us and our driveway needs!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

A tree branch should start to form roots in about three months. It can take about a year for a tree branch to develop roots strong enough to go in the ground. For best results, start several branches because, no matter how closely you follow instructions, they won’t all form roots. Compost any that aren’t thriving.

Hiring an arborist or tree surgeon is usually more expensive than a standard tree company, but it is often worth the investment. Arborists have education and certifications that standard companies typically lack, leading to a more professional, expert-level service. Their expertise is particularly valuable for diseased or infested trees, as they can ensure safer removal and help prevent the issue from spreading. Additionally, arborists may be necessary for work near power lines, as uncertified companies are often not permitted to service these trees. If your goal is to preserve the health of your trees, an arborist is the best choice. Their services, such as stump grinding, are also performed with greater expertise to ensure a safe depth that won't cause your lawn to collapse over time.

You can find pruning paints and sealants for trees, but you shouldn’t use them on a topped tree. Coatings like these often inhibit the tree’s healing process. An important exception is if there are dangerous fungi nearby that the tree is particularly vulnerable to, like oaks and oak wilt. Sealing cuts can help prevent fungi from taking root.

A general rule is that trees need 10 gallons of water for each inch of the tree’s diameter. For large trees, that can amount to approximately 160 gallons of water or more. Watering big trees to this extent can take quite a bit of time using a hose. For this reason, you may consider installing a soaker hose or sprinkler system to make the job easier.  

Yes, cutting a tree's roots can cause it to fall, particularly if major support roots are severed. In extreme cases, trimming roots can affect the tree's structure and stability. Many crucial roots are located just below the soil's surface. If you make severe cuts to roots more than 2 inches in diameter, you risk impacting the tree's water flow and its ability to withstand severe winds or storms. Even cutting roots less than half an inch in diameter under or outside the tree's canopy can cut off its water supply, causing it to decline, die, and eventually topple.
