"We had a tree in the front yard that was very large. We had hoped to save it. The arborist from SavATree tried to think of a way to save it, but in the end the only option was to take it down. The team that came to do the work was careful and professional. They took the tree down and chipped it on site. Great work!"

"I hired C&Y to remove poison ivy from a tree on my front lawn. My technician was thoughtful to remove all the poison ivy at the root and trim the vines from the tree that extended up the trunk and into the branches. He explained everything and did not use herbicides due to the fragile state of my tree ;’which would have killed it. I will definitely hire them again and use them for landscaping services in the future."

"I had sod /grass seed put down four years ago on my entire front and back yard (by another landscaper).   Last year my lawn developed a chinch bug infestation during the warm summer months and lacked necessary fertilization care.   My lawn looked like crap.  
Pat saved my lawn from total bug infestation and provided necessary insect control, fertilization, aeration and reseeding.   He came in August , and immediately identified the problem and the type of sod which I have (which is not the same as my neighbors).  He also sent sample of soil to be tested.   By the fall my lawn showed much improvement.   I have signed up for the 2016 season hoping the results will continue to be exceptional.  First treatment  was the first week March, so it is too early to tell results because grass is still dormant.  
I have used several other companies in the past.  However, they spent very little time on my lawn, gave the same treatment of spraying products on my lawn that they used for everyone lawn, and their products didn't seem to work.   They also never had soil tested.
Very happy with Dirt & Turf services, they take personal interest in their customers.   Pat also added a great customer service person, Christine, who very responsive and professional.  Highly recommend their services.

"We had several other
companies give estimates over the course of a week, but they were unable
to do the work in the short time span with which we had to work. Greg
was able to take down two trees quickly and for a reasonable price. 0
Friendly, professional, and safety conscious. Highly recommend Double Tree Services  !

"The two man crew ensured, through communications with company management and with the homeowners, that they understood the job. Clean up was excellent. Price was very fair considering the time spent, initially, by the Arborist and by the two man crew."

"We needed 4 very large trees on our property removed. Julio was extremely accommodating, as we were late getting back to our house for the estimate meeting. He was very knowledgeable, and was very detailed in his estimate. The pricing was also extremely competitive. We only ended up having two of the trees dropped, but the work was impeccable. Julio and his team were punctual, extremely well prepared and very professional. Both trees, stumps and all of the wood were removed in one day, and the cleanup was excellent. We are extremely satisfied with the work and will almost definitely contract them again in the future."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

Not all leaning trees are dangerous, but they can be a hazard as gravity may eventually cause them to fall. A key factor is whether the lean is new or has been present for a long time. Trees that have grown with a lean for years are not typically an immediate danger, but a sudden lean is a cause for concern as it often indicates weakening roots. If a tree is leaning more than 15% from vertical, you should consider having it straightened or transplanted. To be safe, it's always best to hire a professional arborist to inspect any leaning tree to assess the risk and avoid potential accidents.

Using vinegar to kill tree roots is just one of the clever ways to use vinegar around the house. The method works best when you apply vinegar as directly to the root system as possible. For example, if the old tree roots and stump are currently exposed, drill holes in the tops of the roots and pour undiluted white vinegar into the holes to soak into the plant. Remember that vinegar can kill the surrounding grass and plants should it pour over the edge.

The safest way to cut down a tree is to make sure you’re completely prepared and have done all the necessary safety checks, including double-checking your equipment is in good working order, you have plenty of clearance to fell the tree, you’re wearing all the safety gear, and you have a partner to help you (who should also be wearing safety gear). 

In the case that a tree is growing directly on your property line, the cost of maintaining the tree is shared and is the property of both owners in common. In this case, all decisions regarding the maintenance of the tree must be made jointly, and both parties must agree on a course of action. You will need to agree with your neighbor about the cutting of any roots before you carry it out, and your neighbor must also consult with you before doing any trimming. Coming to an agreement with your neighbor about any shared trees ahead of necessary trimming and maintenance will make this process much simpler.
