My experience began with a brush removal booking through Angie, but Jill later contacted me to do the job directly for the same price. I should have picked up on the ethically deficient sign. Despite my concerns about her distance from my location and lack of a site visit, she assured me it was...

Excellent response! He is unable to remove the chips, so we will have to do that, but he was the first to respond to my call and was able to complete the job quickly. He cleaned up the debris in the street after putting his machine back in and overall made this chore painless and easy.

Chip listened to our concerns and observations, then inspected the space we were concerned about and recommended a course of action. He sprayed around the inside and outside of our house. So far, we've only found a few dead ants. It's been two weeks and there have only been a few ants we've...

Cabinets were only 10 years old so I didn't want to replace them, just change the color. This company operates the NHance wood restoration system as promoted by Home Depot. The process is a good one for changing color, however the prep work to the kitchen cabinets was dismal. Because of poor...

The whole process was flawless! Chip put our mind at ease with his background as well as his knowledge for his product. Sandy (and the rest of the office staff) is always helpful whenever I call the office. The installers were professional, prompt and clean.

Green Tree did a great job clearing brush and stumps out from the back of our property. They worked hard to get the job done quickly and returned calls promptly. The back yard looks wonderful and it didn't cost us a fortune. I would definitely recommend them to others.

Brush Chipping questions, answered by experts

Removing leaves prevents mold growth and ensures grass gets sunlight and air circulation.

It may sound icky, but yes, urine encourages microbial activity that breaks down organic matter faster. It’s rich in nitrogen, which helps balance carbon-heavy materials like dry leaves or straw. Use sparingly and apply it to a well-balanced pile, not one already high in nitrogen.

According to the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, there are over 10,000 kinds of mushrooms, and some are harmful to both humans and animals. However, not all mushrooms are harmful—some feed on thatch and wood, which provides nutrients for grass and plants.

But unless you’re a mushroom expert (mycologist), it can be hard to tell poisonous mushrooms from non-poisonous. So if you have kids or pets (or both), removing them is the safest route to take.

If your dog always does their business in the yard, daily poop pick-up makes sense. The nitrogen in the poop can start making its way into the grass and surrounding soil quickly, a rain shower can send the waste into waterways, and less poop lying around means less chance of stepping on it accidentally.

Mature lilac bushes that are large and overgrown are more challenging to remove than small lilac bushes. Large lilac bushes have deeper roots that are more widespread, making it harder to dig them up and remove them. If you don’t dig under and around the primary roots, then you run the risk of the lilac bush growing back. So, it is a time-consuming process if done correctly.
