"I was super pleased with the work. One tree had limbs overhanging my living room roof. The limbs were removed, higher limbs also removed so there will be no need for additional work for decades. The second tree was on the property line and hanging over my neighbor's storage shed. There were several dead end dying limbs on that one too. In both cases the company roped to high in the tree, tied limbs with rope and then cut them loose, piece by piece, lowering larger pieces in sections. I was impressed with the clear skill involved and very satisfied with the professionalism shown on several levels. Recommend without reservation for tree work even close to homes."

"Hilltop Custom Landscape & Design removed a number of trees along my fence line, and trimmed a large area of shrubs, so I can get my fence replaced. They did a great job and showed a lot of attention to detail. Each person on the crew was friendly and polite. The price they charged was quite fair, and they did a few little extras not in the quote for me. Lastly, when an unseen nest was disturbed in a removed tree, they noticed three babies on the ground...they stopped work and found some material to make a rough nest with, and then a suitable location in another tree, in hopes the mother would find them. I was extremely impressed with this. These guys get a big thumbs up from me, and they would be the first company I would call in the future for this kind of work."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

DIY home gardening can be relaxing, joyful, and cost-effective. From mowing your lawn to planting your own flower beds, there is a wide variety of gardening tasks that you can do yourself to make your yard look beautiful. If you’d rather spend your time not in the dirt, or if you’d like someone to take care of your plants for you, calling a professional gardening service is best. They can give you a workup of what services you’ll need and how often to schedule them.

The fastest ways to remove a tree stump are by grinding it or burning it.

Stump grinding is often the quickest method, with professionals able to chip away a stump and its roots within a single session. You have the option to hire a professional stump removal service or rent a stump grinder to do it yourself. However, it's important to note that these machines can be large, difficult to transport, and dangerous to operate without prior experience. For safety reasons, hiring a local arborist or landscape specialist is often recommended.

Burning is another fast option. Before you begin, check your local burn laws. The process involves drilling holes into the stump, filling them with vegetable oil, and waiting 24 to 48 hours. Afterward, you can add charcoal bricks to the surface and light the fire, which must be attended at all times.

For a more affordable but much slower alternative, you can use potassium nitrate pellets to accelerate the natural decomposition process. This method typically takes four to six months.

Whether you should remove the roots of a dead tree depends on whether they’re damaging nearby areas. For instance, if the roots continue to grow near sidewalks, driveways, or the foundation of your home, they can cause damage. If you want to plant something else in that spot, removing the roots can make it easier for the new tree or plant to grow.

Tree borers are difficult to control and remove once they make a home in your tree. However, with patience and determination, some methods can slow the damage or even eliminate the pests. But, once the damage is too much for the tree to handle, the only solution becomes removing it. Talk to a tree specialist early for the best chance at saving your tree.

Trees should be pruned every two to five years, depending on its age and type. Young trees should be inspected and pruned every two to three years. Mature trees should be inspected and trimmed every three to five years, and fruit trees should be pruned annually with a careful eye on seasonal growth. Evergreens typically don’t need pruning, unless branches or limbs are damaged, diseased, or harboring pests.
