"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

Depending on the severity of the damage, a tree might continue healing for years after a split or a break. Saplings can usually bounce back in the spring in one or two seasons, but larger trees might take a few years to regain their former strength. If your tree is showing strong growth and is not dropping limbs, you can consider it healed after the first two seasons.

A tree can split because of high winds, a change in temperature, or from an infestation or tree disease. All of these factors can overlap, making a single cause difficult to pinpoint. While winter storms are some of the most common causes for a tree to split, it can also happen because of termites or rot.

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

While the trees in your backyard are good for the environment and look beautiful, they could present a danger to your home under the wrong circumstances. This task is typically beyond the capabilities of the average homeowner due to its dangerous nature, so it’s best to leave this task to a professional. In some cities, it’s even illegal to remove a tree yourself.

The best tools for tree removal include a chainsaw for large trees, an ax for notching and cutting down small trees, and a wedge to help control the direction a tree falls in. A hatchet can be useful for very small trees, but won’t be effective for medium to large trees.
