"They did an excellent job. The stump grinder was not as good as the one in 2017. But overall, we would hire them again. They are very professional."

"This was, by far, one of the best experiences. They were very professional; kept me updated on time, etc,BUT what sets the apart from all others is tge job they did. Just incredible. I had just moved in to a rental, but I wanted the house to look clean and well taken care of. There were some weeds taller than the windows. There was Poison Ivy and all those weeds were choking out any good plants. They cleaned it all out, cut trees, removed bushes, trimmed bushes, raked the flower beds and hauled it all away. 7 hrs of work! I cannot say enough great things about this company. There are a few more bushes I'd like taken out, but need to get the landlords permission first. If that happens, i will definitely contact Set Apart Tree."

"JEFF AND TAMMY ARE THE BEST EVER! CALLED ON A FRIDAY TO GET A QUOTE ON REMOVAL AND STUMP GRINDING OF SOME 35 YEAR-OLD SHRUBS THAT HAD BECOME EXTREMELY OVER-GROWN. THEY GAVE ME A QUOTE QUICKLY, AND SET ME UP WITH AN APPOINTMENT THAT *MONDAY*! THEY CAME OVER EARLY, DID AN EXCEPTIONAL JOB ALL-AROUND AND WERE GONE IN LESS THAN 2 HOURS. IN THESE TIMES OF HORRIBLE SERVICE PROVIDED IN ALL SPECTRUMS OF WORK, THIS COMPANY IS A BREATH OF FRESH AIR. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!"

"Travis (Kustom Trim Tree Service) was the first to respond by actually stopping by the house to see the project. After an onsite review of the project and brief discussion we were sold by his confidence and assurance that he had the man power and right equipment to get the job done safely. As tree limbs and debris fell, the ground crew cleaned up the yard as needed. The project was completed in a timely and safe manner. Travis made it look easy but this was a very big task as some trees were almost 100 feet high. We are very happy and would hire him again if needed in the future."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The best plan of action for an unhealthy or unsafe tree will depend on its condition. An arborist can recommend whether trimming or removal is the right call for your tree. Preventive tree trimming can keep trees safe and healthy, so make regular tree trimming a part of your yard maintenance plan.

Late winter is ideal, but if you’re pruning apple trees in the spring, prune them as early as possible in the season. You want to ensure your tree is just creeping out of dormancy and hasn’t started pushing out new growth. If you prune your tree too late into spring, you generally won’t see results until the following year.

That said, there’s no pruning season for unhealthy growth. Remove dead, dying, or diseased branches as soon as you notice them, regardless of the time of year.

If you’re looking to rot a tree stump fast, potassium nitrate will work far quicker than copper nails. First, drill several holes into the stump using a power drill, then pour potassium nitrate pellets into the holes. Next, add water to help the chemical absorb into the wood, thoroughly soaking the stump to ensure the pellets dissolve and spread evenly. Afterward, cover the stump with a tarp to retain moisture and block sunlight, then place mulch on top to secure it in place.

Your neighbor is not in a good position to know if your trees are truly dead or pose any kind of danger. That’s why hiring an arborist or tree service expert can be such an important part of the process. If the trees are still alive and don’t pose any threat, you’re in the clear (but you may want to document and photograph everything in case events turn sour down the road).

But if a tree is visibly dead and near the property line, you should remove it to be safe. If a dead tree falls on a neighbor’s property, they may have grounds to sue for negligence. If any branches on trees have died, it’s a good idea to cut them back for similar reasons.

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.
