"After two very good experiences with Rich’s Tree Service my last experience has been less than satisfactory. I thought I was requesting a more thorough tree trimming last year, trimming the branches of three trees by 4 to 6 feet. This seemed to be reflected in the estimate I was given. The trimming took less than half the time previous tree trimmings took (around 45 minutes) and there was significantly less tree debris on the ground than previously. My impression was supported by the falling of a large dead branch in a wind storm a few days after the trimming was completed. I contacted Riche’s Tree Service for an explanation and was told that someone would come out and either discuss the matter with me or complete the tree trimming. No one came out. This same process was repeated two more times. As of today, nobody from Rich’s Tree Service has come out to either discuss the inadequate tree trimming or finish the trimming."

BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND!!!!! HMD has returned to Angi! After taking a few years off to grow our company in the commercial and public sectors, we are now back to offer Angi members the same high quality services you have come to trust and love. We now have a forestry and excavation division to complement the many other services we already offer. You can expect the same quality and responsiveness as always. Our team of highly trained professionals are ready to help.

"We purchased a house that was 20 years old. We needed our concrete walkway repaired, as it sank over a period of several years, leaving the distance between steps as a safety hazard. Brian and his crew assessed the situation and did an amazing job. Besides replacing the entire concrete walkway, they also installed a railing. They did another railing in the back of the house and installed a new mailbox as well. 2 days in and we've had many compliments on both the mailbox and walkway. Another neighbor has already asked if HMD is willing to do their mailbox. No job to small (or big, as I believe they're used to doing much larger jobs in the metro area). They also kept our property and surrounding area clean. They loaded equipment and materials in and out, and it was a "busy site" for a couple of days, but when they cleaned up, you would never know they were there, except for the quality craftsmanship they left behind. The front of our house looks better than ever."

"Fantastic. I have had them for 2 whole seasons. My lawn is beautiful, so much so that I have neighbors ask who treats it. The spotted lanternflies were horrible in 2019, they started mid season to rid them. Our 2020 season was so much less bugs. I will definitely continue to use this company."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

If you’re using crushed stone or gravel as a base material, then yes, you should compact it to prevent movement of the top layers. For instance, if you don’t compact crushed stone or gravel and you lay pavers on top of them, the pavers will shift over time. However, if you’re using gravel or crushed stone as a top layer for aesthetic purposes, you might not want to compact the materials.

Delivery services save time and effort, ensuring precise quantities reach your site conveniently and reducing the physical strain of self-transportation and handling.

The best equipment for moving large rocks from your yard depends on their size and weight. A heavy-duty wheelbarrow or a rock dolly can be effective for smaller boulders. A skid-steer loader or a mini-excavator with a grapple attachment provides the necessary power and control for larger, heavier rocks that you can’t lift manually. Professionals may use a larger excavator and ratchet hoist to remove larger boulders.

The cost of 200 square feet of pea gravel depends on how deep your installation will be. The pea gravel material alone costs between $15 and $75 per cubic yard. You'll need just under two yards to cover 200 square feet to a depth of three inches, for a total cost of between $30 and $150.

Many suppliers offer installation services, either directly or through reliable subcontractors. Discuss these needs when ordering, as they may require additional scheduling or payment.
