"The crew removed overgrown plants, trees and shrubs from the front flowerbeds very quickly. They planted new shrubs and flowers, and spread mulch. All of this was done within 4 hours, and it looks very nice. They also trimmed some overhanging branches and felled a dead tree and removed the debris. The work area was cleaned and raked, and looks great."

"Trevor and his crew showed up at exactly the time they said they would arrive to start the work. They asked where I would like the wood stacked before starting the job and asked if I had any special requirements before they began. They stacked the logs perfectly and professionally in the spot I designated for them before they began. They cleaned up all the little pieces of wood from my yard and driveway before leaving the job. They were very polite and courteous throughout the whole process. Trevor even asked me if I wanted some logs he found under my hedges cut up side he noticed them while cleaning up - I totally forgot about the logs and greatly appreciated the fact he noticed them and asked to split them before leaving. I would highly recommend Trevor and his crew from Lucky Strike Log Splitting for any and all log splitting jobs. I already inform informed them I would be hiring them in October after I cut down the 2nd of 3 trees I have in my front yard."

"They showed up on time and got straight to work. I had a fence, a dozen bushes and a large garden with a tree removed. Everything was done quickly and they cleaned up nicely. I would definitely use them again and have already told one guy about them the same day!"

"Great, on time, very fast and thorough, workmen were very nice and helpful. I had the lawn scrap bags all ready for them, they halved my hostas for me, left what I asked them to leave. John was very professional. Asked him for a quote for another project."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Most jobs take 2-8 hours, but extensive trimming may take multiple days.

Often, it’s the homeowner’s responsibility to handle the aftermath when a neighbor’s tree falls on their property. But if a tree has been obviously dead for a significant period of time and caused damage when it fell, a case can be made that the owner should have removed it, especially if the neighbor wrote you a letter about the tree or asked you to take it down. This can be grounds for a successful lawsuit in claims court and is a good reason to always pay attention to your trees and remove dead trees before they fall.

Trees don’t usually grow back after being cut down. Some particularly robust tree species may start sending up new stems from a stump to recover, but those stems won’t become a “tree” like before. Generally, trees don’t recover from being entirely cut down, which is why it’s important to be careful when making a decision. When you cut down a tree, it’s a good idea to make plans to remove the stump, even if it’s unlikely to grow back.

You should prune ornamental trees once every other year after the fruit has matured and begun to drop. You should also prune out dead branches whenever you see them. Pruning too often can stimulate more growth, especially in faster growing varieties like Bradford pears.

The recovery time for pruning depends on how much you prune, the species of tree, and how well you care for it afterward. All trees grow new wood and often sprout additional branches after pruning. Ideally, trees should recover from normal pruning after one or two years. Heavy pruning or slow-growing trees may take several years to fully recover.
