"I had limbs hanging on the roof of my two story house. I mentioned to my lawn service, A Cut Above, I was looking for someone to trim the tree. It is between our house and the neighbors. They said they could do it. I was surprised and happy. I had not been aware they did tree service. Craig came out on his off time to look at the tree. His quote was lower than I expected. They did a great job. I will continue to use them for any business they provide."

"Experienced and knowledgeable crew. Worked fast and efficient. Let us know exactly what they were going to do and how they were going to do it. Asked how we wanted certain things done before they did it and also gave us options to some of our plans. Very, very fair price. Would HIGHLY RECOMMEND them for any type of tree work."

"I hired Morrissey Stump Grinding And Tree Service to tear down an old shed at my home in Camden, NC, and I couldn't be happier with the results. ​The crew was prompt, professional, and clearly knew what they were doing. They utilized a claw truck for the job, which made the demolition process super efficient and very impressive to watch. It’s rare to see that level of equipment and skill used so effectively. ​They did an amazing job and I honestly couldn't ask for better service. If you need demolition or tree work done in the Camden area, I highly recommend hiring them."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.

Bleach can potentially kill some types of delicate ornamental trees, but for the most part, it will only kill the foliage it comes in contact with. Applying bleach is not an effective method of killing a tree. A better option is to use an herbicide, which is a chemical compound designed to effectively kill a tree. 

Generally, if your neighbor’s tree hangs over your yard, you can legally trim overhanging branches. Keep in mind that you cannot cross your property line to cut the trees, and if you damage the tree by trimming it, your neighbor could sue you. Depending on the type of tree and value, this could mean dishing out two to three times the value of the tree.

It’s worth noting that the specifics of this type of tree maintenance and the guidelines around it may vary by location. Do your research and, most importantly, consult with your neighbor.

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.

In some states and municipalities, you will need a permit to remove a tree on your property. In many cases where permits are required, a tree must reach a maximum height before a permit is required to remove it. You can either ask your local building department or a tree removal professional if you’ll need a permit. If you do, you can expect to pay between $50 and $150 for the permit alone. Your tree removal company should pull the permit for you and include the permit fee in your total.
