"I requested 3 quotes. Conway Tree Services responded right away. Greg Conway came out to the property, looked at the work needed; gave us options on what could be done and worked within our very tight timeline. They came the next day to do the tree removal. They removed the tree. They removed the pine needles from the roof and helped with other items. Professional and kind. Great Customer Service!!!! I recommend them!"

"I contracted Mr. Burks to cut, stump, grind, and disposal of 4 pine trees. Now that Burks completed the job, I am extremely satisfied with his service. Here are all the pros working with this company: 1) Excellent communication during the quoting process and throughout the work. 2) Excellent work and value for their work. 3) Highly respectful and professional (Mr. Burks and his crew) 4) Mr. Burks worked with an adjacent business to have better access to my property. 5) Cleanliness. They left no tree debris behind. 6) Renegociated for an additional job not quoted initially. I would not only use Burks Tree Service again, but I highly recommend this business. Thank you, Mr. Burks! PS. I am not receiving compensation or a discount for this review. My review only represents my personal opinion and experience with this business."

"A huge upper section of a very tall and large pine tree crashed onto my house and USAA promptly removed it but said the main tree was not covered though it was so damaged it clearly needed to be cut down before it too fell on the house. I called Joseph and he came out quickly and provided a very reasonable estimate and promised to return the following morning to cut it down. He and Drew arrived on time, worked hard and efficiently, were very careful not to damage our property, and cleaned up so well you could hardly tell they had been here. Joseph is a 14 year Army veteran who is still serving in the Reserves who takes pride in his work, knows his stuff, and goes the extra mile to ensure your satisfaction. Call him. I know you'll be glad you did!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

You need to remove all branches affected by Dutch elm disease. If your tree has several affected branches, you will probably need to remove the entire tree. First, consult a pro to be sure that you’ve correctly identified it as an elm tree. Make sure the tree is properly disposed of with a plastic covering or through debarking, chipping, or burning.

Dead trees are dangerous for several reasons. They are structurally compromised and prone to branch or trunk failure, which can pose a significant safety risk to people, vehicles, and nearby structures. Dead trees can also harbor pests like termites, which may spread to other trees or your home. If a tree died from a disease, it could spread the illness to healthy trees. Additionally, the dry wood is highly flammable, increasing fire risk.

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.

The felling notch you make before you make the final cut will determine which way the tree will fall. The cut will be in a wedge or triangle, and the tree will fall from the highest point of the triangle. You can use this, as well as the process described above, to estimate where a tree will fall. 

Sometimes, knowing when you need tree-trimming services is straightforward, and other times, you have to do some investigating. Some tell-tale signs that you should have your tree trimmed include:

  • A poorly-formed tree with unruly branches, which makes the tree appear odd-shaped. 

  • A tree with tall or large branches that interfere with power lines or your home’s exterior.

  • A tree that provides too much shade in the yard due to branch overgrowth.
