"Codey and his crew showed up on time. They were friendly and respectful. The Ramsey & Family Tree Service got down to businees and removed a leaning large pine tree from going down on my neighbors house. They were professional and quick! I would highly recommend these guys to anyone!!!! I plan on having them do more work in the future. They were reasonably priced too! Stevie Callahan"

"My landscapers told me Stump Grinding Services was the best business in the area for tree/bush removal and stump grinding. They were right. They arrived on time, cleaned up after they finished their work and did exactly what we asked of them, which was removing numerous overgrown bushes as well as a tree and several pre-existing tree stumps. Some companies just grind out the top of a stump but tell the homeowner they removed everything. This leaves the homeowner with a future sprouting, mess of roots all over their plant beds. You can trust Stump Grinding Services to do it the right way."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

For trimming trees, your best tool is a pair of pruning shears or loppers. Both options work best for branches that are under 3 inches in diameter. Trimming trees with a larger diameter may require a robust tool like a small chainsaw or a handsaw, so take into account your tree’s diameter when deciding between tools.

If you ever want to see the literal fruits of your labor, you’ll need to prune your peach trees. Without pruning, the trees may not grow or bear fruit since the nutrients will be divided among too many offshoots to provide any with enough energy to produce the peaches. Plus, if parts of the peach tree become diseased or pest-ridden, pruning can nip those problems in the bud.

Leaving the tree stump and letting it rot is never a good idea, as this leads to insect infestations and other frustrations. Additionally, decomposing trunks are at risk for diseases that spread out to the remaining plants and trees in the yard, thus ruining your whole outdoor aesthetic. It's usually best to remove the stump at the same time you remove the tree.

Generally speaking, you’ll want to avoid flush cuts, which are cuts made as extremely close to the trunk or main branch. These cuts can weaken your tree, lower its natural defense mechanisms, and even cause decay. You’ll also want to avoid tree topping, which is the total removal of the leader and upper main branches of a tree. 

Most pros will advise against either of these methods, which is why hiring a pro is often the best choice when it comes to tree trimming.

The speed of your tree root removal process depends on a few different factors, including the size and type of tree. However, the fastest method of killing tree roots is applying chemical herbicide, which starts working quickly and efficiently. But this removal method has its drawbacks, such as having a negative effect on the surrounding vegetation and landscaping. Other options like rock salt and stump grinding work relatively quickly and cause less damage to your yard.
