"I had a great experience with Highland Tree Service. Justin and his crew were professional, arrived on time, and did an excellent job removing two trees and trimming several others on my property. They worked safely, cleaned up all the branches and debris, and left the work area clean when they were finished. Communication with Ashley in the office was excellent from start to finish. She was friendly, responsive, and made the entire process easy. Their pricing was fair, and the level of customer service was outstanding. I highly recommend Highland Tree Service to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality tree removal and tree trimming services."

"Communication:  Excellent - From the original contact through the completion of work, Ross Armstrong was very responsive and communicative (most communication was via our preferred method: e-mail).  Prior to starting the work, Ross and his team were very considerate of my concerns.  During the work they kept me informed of "what, how, and when" they would be performing the various steps of the job.  The entire team was pleasant and articulate.
Price:  Excellent - The quoted price was competitive in comparison to the other three quotes we obtained.  An Angie's List Coupon sweetened the deal.
Punctuality: Excellent - At the agreed-upon date and time, Ross and his team arrived, with all necessary equipment, and got right to work.
Performance: Excellent - The tree removal was performed in an efficient, safe, and professional manner.  They worked at a steady pace from start to finish.  There was never a sense they were rushing nor were they ever standing idle.  The tree came down, in pieces, in a very systematic and controlled manner and I never felt that anyone or anything was in danger.  The equipment they used (saws, bucket truck, chipper, grinder, etc.) were all modern and clearly well-maintained.  Upon completion, the job site was thoroughly cleaned before they departed.
Bottom Line:  If you're looking for the excitement/entertainment of having someone come and wave a chain saw around recklessly or want to be surprised as to where the tree falls (or what/who it falls on), call someone else.  If you want someone to do exactly what they say they are going to do, when they say they're going to do it, and do it in a professional and respectful manner, contact Armstrong & Co.

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

If a disease has attacked and destroyed the roots, then the tree may fall over as soon as it has died or while part of it is still alive. Trees that die with their roots left in place tend to stay standing for much longer, but those roots will decay eventually, allowing gravity to do the rest.

While there is a lot of debate about whether boiling water is strong enough to kill tree roots, it is not best to remove the roots from large, old trees. You may be able to weaken young roots enough to remove them manually, but boiling water will likely not do the trick for large root systems.

In general, trees should be planted no closer than 15 to 20 feet from your foundation. For larger trees with far-reaching roots like maples, oaks, or poplars, a good guide is to plant as many feet from your home as the tree’s height is expected to reach at maturity. Some trees, like elms and willows, should only be planted far from where their roots may encounter sewer or water lines.

It can take anywhere from one month to a couple of years for tree roots to grow back in sewer lines. Tree roots can cause extreme havoc on your sewer lines, potentially cracking them and causing untreated wastewater to make its way into the groundwater. Have a landscaping pro remove trees and roots before installing your system, or call a pro to do it retroactively as soon as you can.

You can use the formula mentioned earlier to calculate the depth of tree roots. Each inch of width of a tree trunk translates to six inches of depth within the root system. Large trees extend anywhere from 2 to 6 feet into the ground, with some magnificent specimens going even deeper.
