"We hired Shane and crew to remove two VERY large oaks (over 50') in a tough spot--very near our neighbor's house. They were on time and despite rain, got them down and out in a day and a half, They cleaned up our property and our neighbor's driveway beautifully! Much respect to this profession--a dangerous job for sure but they adhered to safety measures and consideration for our property and everything around them, I would recommend this company to everyone."

"I can't say enough positive things about this group. They were punctual, professional, and showed great attention to detail. And they offered very competitive pricing to boot! They worked all day on my yard, eliminating and removing 2 large oak trees, an extremely tall hickory tree, 9 pine trees, and a "widow-maker" deciduous tree in 100 degree heat. My kids and I tried to bring them food, drinks, chairs, etc... , but we had to be EXTREMELY forceful for them to accept our offering. I'm very tight-fisted with money, but I opted to tip over $400 because of my appreciation and respect for the work they performed."

"I have a very large Japanese Maple tree which is very dear to me. I hired Lemus to trim it as well as a very large Maple. While they were here, I decided to also remove a diseased Hemlock Tree. All 3 trees were meticulously worked on. Their professionalism was outstanding and they did a great job on all of them. The price was also reasonable and the crew showed up on time. Cleanup was also done satisfactorily. I highly recommend Lemus Tree Service and More."

"Here's a polished review you can post on Angi: I highly recommend Rafael for any house work, construction etc. He installed a French drain at my property, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Rafael was honest, reliable, professional, and trustworthy throughout the entire process. He explained everything clearly, showed up when promised, and completed the job with great attention to detail. It's hard to find contractors who are both skilled and dependable, and Rafael exceeded my expectations. I would not hesitate to hire him again and would gladly recommend him to family and friends."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The amount of time it takes for a tree trunk to rot depends on several factors, including the tree’s size, species, and environmental conditions. It can take anywhere from a few years to several decades for a tree’s trunk to rot. A tree stump, on the other hand, can take up to 10 years to disappear after it’s decayed naturally.

For safety reasons, leaning trees are best removed by a professional, as they may often tear away from the hinge, causing you to lose control over where the tree falls. If you choose to cut down a tree leaning slightly, avoid cutting off root protrusions before you start. Make your hinge a little longer than usual by cutting it deeper (up to 30% of the diameter) and applying a wedge into the felling cut on the side the tree is leaning. Stand away from the direction the tree leans while making your felling cut.

After a big storm, you may not be sure if a tree was struck or not. Look for the telltale long scars, like strips or gouges in the bark of the tree, running in sometimes jagged lines down the length of the trunk. These scars will often show vulnerable living wood inside the tree. It’s also common to see scorched or wilted leaves on the side or top of the tree where lightning struck.

Grinding down a tree helps reduce the risk of foundation damage and pests and even helps your home’s curb appeal. Stumps can also be a safety hazard. If grass grows above the stump and someone else mows your yard, they may be in for a rude awakening when they accidentally hit it.

Yes, it is highly recommended to remove tree stumps. Leaving them in the ground can lead to several problems, as they are not only unsightly but can also reduce your property's value. Stumps can obstruct landscaping plans, make mowing difficult, and hinder new growth. More importantly, they are prime breeding grounds for pests like termites, ants, and mice, which can spread to your home and cause costly damage to its wood and foundation. Stumps also attract fungi and diseases that can infect other healthy trees and plants in your yard. As a stump decays, it might sprout new, unwanted shoots. While removing a stump is an investment, it prevents these potential issues and enhances the safety, health, and appearance of your landscape.
