"From estimate to payment for job well done - all IN ONE DAY. I watched the team work at a neighbor's house and I noticed the way they carried themselves and worked together. They seemed focused and efficient and did a great job - safely. No noted mishaps; and believe me, I watched closely. The men looked, behaved, and spoke professionally and courteously. Equipment was clean and obviously well maintained, further indicating the professional orientation of the team. Mr. Holman was knowledgeable and willing to educate this non-arborist homeowner about the health of my one tree, which I really want to keep. Every one of my concerns were appropriately addressed prior to starting and the job was completed and completely cleaned up within 2 hours. I am thoroughly impressed. They did what they said they would do, when they said they would do it, for the price quoted. That is hard to come by these days. I highly recommend Holman Tree Service!"

"Had some trees that had grown over my roof and over the electric line. Some of the branches had fallen and laying on the electric line. They came out and got them cut and removed. Cleaned up after themselves. They did an awesome job at a very reasonable price. Would recommend them to anyone."

"A storm brought down our big tree and we were forced to find someone who could chop it up and haul it as we are so busy. We contacted this company and Van got it out of there in no time at a very reasonable price. Great Service! Highly recommended. Thank you for your service brother!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

If you don’t cut down a dead, dying, or diseased tree, it can become a nesting place for pests like mosquitos, bees, beetles, wasps, fly larvae, and more. Some pests will live in the tree, while others will feed off the decaying wood. Unhealthy trees are also more likely to fall over, potentially injuring people and causing damage to your property.

Unlike some fruit trees, such as apple, sweet cherry, or pear that require at least two trees for pollination, most peach trees are self-pollinating. This means you can plant just one tree and still expect it to produce fruit, typically within two to four years. For best results, consult with a local landscaper to choose the right peach tree variety for your specific climate, soil type, and yard layout.

The best time to cut down a tree is during its dormant season, typically in winter or early spring, after all the leaves have fallen. Removing a tree during this period is advantageous for several reasons. Frozen ground helps secure the tree stump, protects the surrounding landscape from damage, and reduces the risk of the tree falling in an unintended direction. With the leaves gone, there is less risk of the tree's foliage getting tangled with other trees. Additionally, since this is often a slower season for tree services, you may be able to hire a professional at a lower rate. This dormant period is also the best time for tree trimming.

Some people prefer to leave or even carve a leftover stump, but we recommend removing it if possible. You can often dig out smaller trunks with a shovel once they have died and dried out. You can have stumps professionally removed, or request a service to grind them down to ground level so they can be replaced with other landscaping or objects.

Salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, and burning can all help dissolve a tree stump. You can also bury the tree stump in soil or mulch to help it rot naturally. Killing a tree stump prevents future regrowth, but you may also remove it by digging it out or grinding it.
