"Great service and lovely guy (owner Pauly). They were prompt, good equipment, worked with me to get the correct length of yard (this is a new home for me). I had mentioned I had a small project to remove a loose garden fence and they did that while here, mowed there, as well ...all for a fair amount. They have my long term business! EXCELLENT!"

"Best tree service this side of the Carolina's. There's no way I would use any other tree service, he's professional, and you can tell he re-invests into himself and his company by his expertise and professional equipment. Truly a dedicated man. 10/10"

Customers say: Quick response

"My home was in need of gutter cleaning and exterior cleaning/power-wash. I found Adam and Perfect Lawn and Home through an online search that led me here to his HomeAdvisor profile. When I saw all of the reviews and positive words, I decided to give him a call. He was professional, easy to work with, on time for the estimate, gave a fair quote for the work, showed up on the day and time agreed upon, and did an outstanding job! Very thorough, professional, flexible and respectful. No shortcuts. The place looks amazing from the tip of the roof to the bottom of the foundation! Really a pleasure and rare to find a contractor around here that does what they say (and then some), shows up when they say they will, and performs quality work. Well worth it. Adam goes to the top of my list now for future needs."

"I have used WCR Hauling on several occasion. The young man, Wade, that has come to my house is prompt and hard working. WCR hauled away a bunch of items that I just didn't know how to get rid of. They did it quickly, cleanly, and their prices were very fair. Especially when you consider that he had to take my stuff to a dump and cover those prices. I would highly recommend them without hesitation."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The amount of time it takes for a tree trunk to rot depends on several factors, including the tree’s size, species, and environmental conditions. It can take anywhere from a few years to several decades for a tree’s trunk to rot. A tree stump, on the other hand, can take up to 10 years to disappear after it’s decayed naturally.

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.

If you’re looking to rot a tree stump fast, potassium nitrate will work far quicker than copper nails. First, drill several holes into the stump using a power drill, then pour potassium nitrate pellets into the holes. Next, add water to help the chemical absorb into the wood, thoroughly soaking the stump to ensure the pellets dissolve and spread evenly. Afterward, cover the stump with a tarp to retain moisture and block sunlight, then place mulch on top to secure it in place.

The average lifespan of an oak tree is 100 to 300 years, so long as it isn’t impacted by diseases like sudden oak death. Some species will last shorter or longer, depending on where you live.

For Bradford pears, damage from storms is common, and if the trunk splits, it can pose a danger to people and surrounding structures. The best thing to do in that instance is to have the tree removed. If there’s only minor damage to the branches, pruning away the damaged parts is the first order of business. You may also want to consult a professional arborist to make sure the tree is healthy.
