I have been in the forestry and excavation trades since I was a teenager. I have over 20 yrs experience with both now. \nThis is a small family run business and also owner operated, so I am the one performing each job we do. \nWe strive for customer satisfaction and don't mind putting in the extra work to make it happen as planned and on time.

"Kyle and his crew were a pleasure to work with for my trees/brush removal and grading over 0.25 acres or land! He kept in regular communication throughout the entirety of the project and is a really nice guy! His price was very competitive compared to other quotes I received. He seems to figure out a solution for any issues that might arise throughout the project, which I believe is a great characteristic to have. If you want an honest, competitive quote for any of your landscaping needs, specifically tree and brush removal, don't hesitate and call Kyle today!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Completely topping a plum tree is a risky business. Cut too much, and you’ll kill your tree. That said, you do need to trim the top of your tree to encourage bushy growth, maintain your tree’s vase shape, and limit size. 

A plum tree's central leader (or trunk) should never extend more than 3 feet above the highest branch. When you first plant your tree, cut the central leader so it’s 2 to 3 feet tall. As it grows, cut it back 12 to 20 inches until it reaches its desired height. Never prune more than one-third of the new growth.

Getting a tree pro with the right experience can be the difference between your transplanted tree surviving or not. When hiring a local tree transplanting and removal service, follow up on references, check their portfolio, ask for a breakdown of the costs, and get proof of liability and workers’ compensation insurance. 

Also, look for companies certified by the International Society of Arboriculture or registered with the Tree Care Industry Association and make sure they have an appropriate state or city license.

DIY pruning is possible for small trees and shrubs with basic tools. However, for larger trees, more hazardous removals, or to ensure proper pruning techniques are used, it is recommended to hire a professional for safety.

Palm tree removal can cost anywhere between $100 and $1,800 depending on palm size, tree condition, labor, location, and the amount of prep work involved. With the necessary skills, a DIY palm tree removal for trees shorter than 15 feet can lower costs. However, it’s generally recommended that you hire a palm tree expert for tree removal.

Many species, especially when well-established, are not fans of transplantation. You’ll need to decide if you want to risk splashing the cash, understanding that transplantation isn’t always successful. Again, this is where hiring a pro is helpful, as they can give you all the essential info you need to ensure your tree stands a fighting chance.
