"Grind and Gone Stump Grinding were amazing and if I ever need additional help with tree limbs, stumps or small trees they will be the first people I will call. Randy McKown was so professional and did an A plus job. I have already sent a copy of his card to a friend who may need his services. There are not enough accolades for great work. Thanks many times over. Ginny Fowler"

"I had the pleasure of working with Frankie and his team. They took down 2 large trees and top off 2 magnolias trees. They were reasonably priced and the crew did an awsome job. They left the job site clean and were easy to work with. I highly recommend them any tree services you may need."

"Nick called me and ask what work I was wanting done . I explained it and he came to my home the next day. Gave the best price of any of the tree company's. Even had 1 company that turned the job down. They came a week later and had all the work done in a of which 1 of the trees were 100' in a very tight area. Nick and his crew were very professional. Cleaned the area like they had never been here except the tree being gone. I highly recommend Nick and his crew. Give them a 10 starts out of 10 stars. Thanks Nick"

"Highly recommend the Golden Boys. They came in and got the job done when they said they would. They work hard and offer very fair prices compared to some of the other companies I quoted before I hired them. Dennis and Jovan are tree experts and know what they are talking about and their crew is full of hard-working guys. Will definitely be contacting them for any future tree service needs."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

If executed correctly your tree should survive after being transplanted to a new spot. However, effective transplanting requires six months, careful root pruning, safe transport to the new location, and replanting in prime soil conditions. You’ll also need an appropriately sized root ball for a complete tree transplant. A good rule of thumb is that, for every inch in diameter, your tree’s root ball needs to be around 11 inches. So a tree with a diameter of six inches needs a root ball of approximately 66 inches.

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.

The ideal time to prune a tree depends on the type of tree. Typically, late winter or early spring is a good time to prune but isn't always the case for "towering trees." It's best to trim when trees are dormant and before blooms appear but can vary depending on the tree type. It's always best to research the type of tree or ask a professional tree trimmer to determine when is the perfect time to prune your tree.

It takes anywhere from three to seven years for a stump to decompose on its own. This timeframe can depend on the kind of tree and your climate. The lower to the ground the stump is, the faster it rots. If you kill a tree stump with salt, boiling water, herbicide, light deprivation, or burning, the tree stump decomposes faster. 

You can use herbicides to prevent roots from growing without killing the tree itself, however they must be used with caution. Systemic herbicides are absorbed by the root and can kill off problematic roots. However, herbicides can sometimes negatively impact nearby plants, so the solution is best used sparingly.
