"We had a tree problem. I left messages with 5 services and Alex connected me within minutes and came the same day to look. He said he would come tomorrow (October 26, 2023) to take care of it. We are in the midst of a winter storm warning so I thought I wouldnâ t see him until spring if lucky. Well he sure did show up during the storm and tackled that tree! He said we could watch him work if we wanted to ensure he did a professional job. We didnà ¢à  à  t because we were confident in his abilities, but I did look out now and then because I was concerned for him! He was very methodic on how he approached the tree to avoid disturbing the neighbors yard or damaging ours. He was very reasonably priced and did an exceptional job with clean up especially fighting the snow! And none of the other services have contacted us yet! We highly highly highly recommend Alex. 10 stars out 5!"

The work took 5 days and was most demanding on their part. Considering all they had 31 years of neglect in the grove stand.  I am pleased with the result.  I imagine an additional charge would completely clean up the remainder of the grounds, but with limited funds I had available, I could not expect more.  Over all the price was reasonable and work done promptly with attention to hauling away many truck loads of branches.

"It was a very great experience. Cody was there when he said he would be and came within his bid amount and got my projects finished on time and wonderfully done. I would recommend him for your around the home projects. I’m going to get him to do more before he gets too busy. A number 1 contractor says what he will do and gets in done when promised"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

On grafted trees, tree suckers will grow from the root stock, not the branches grafted onto it. Therefore, the leaves and characteristics of the suckers aren’t the same as the tree because they are different varieties. Root stock has more hardiness, strength, or drought tolerance than its grafted limbs, so if the suckers are from fruit or flowers, it might be different than the main part of your tree.

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.

Generally speaking, you’ll want to avoid flush cuts, which are cuts made as extremely close to the trunk or main branch. These cuts can weaken your tree, lower its natural defense mechanisms, and even cause decay. You’ll also want to avoid tree topping, which is the total removal of the leader and upper main branches of a tree. 

Most pros will advise against either of these methods, which is why hiring a pro is often the best choice when it comes to tree trimming.

Generally, homeowners do not need permission to cut down a tree on their own private property, but there are several exceptions where a permit may be required. You might need a permit if the tree is particularly large, old, or a protected species, such as a heritage tree. Trees located near public property or power lines can also be subject to special rules. Additionally, many local governments and homeowners associations (HOAs) have regulations controlling which trees can be removed to manage an area's appearance or prevent the spread of invasive species. To avoid hefty fines, it is crucial to check with your local government and HOA to determine if a permit is needed before you begin.

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.
