"Timothy is very knowledgeable and is a certified arborist, he took time to explain his assessment of the tree which was heavily infected with aphids and the treatments that we could take to remedy the situation. It was easy to get access to talk to him unlike other services where you end up having to speak to person after person who are not certified arborists. I would call on him for any future needs."

"The crew that removed my old 60 foot high tree carefully took it down with precision and care, the tree what chipped on site and the crew cleaned up so nicely, the experience was a pleasure from the beginning until completed. This company was so professional and friendly, they explained everything. My wife is so happy how clean they left the yard.. we got two thee estimates and these guys beat both of the other quotes. Could not have asked for more. Thanks, Guys!"

"We needed a fairly large tree removed in our backyard and reached out to GF trees service and spoke to Benji. He made it a priority to answer all questions we had and come out the same day to give us a price quote. We hired Benji and his team that day, the very next day he came out and within a few hours the tree was removed and yard was cleaned up from all debris. Excellent customer service and work performed. I would recommend GF trees service to anyone needing tree removal services."

"John of Plymouth Nursery and Landscaping and his staff were wonderful. They did a terrific job cleaning up my property and planting all new beautiful shrubs and plants. Also installed a system to help with my water problem. My property was in desperate need of a face lift and John and his crew came through. I would recommend Plymouth Nursery and Landscaping!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It may not be worth it to rake every leaf in your yard, but it’s necessary to remove the majority of leaves to prevent them from smothering grass growth on your lawn. However, raking leaves isn’t your only option for leaf removal. You can remove leaves easily with a leaf blower or compost or mulch them with your lawn mower to repurpose them to help grow your garden or yard.

In some states and municipalities, you will need a permit to remove a tree on your property. In many cases where permits are required, a tree must reach a maximum height before a permit is required to remove it. You can either ask your local building department or a tree removal professional if you’ll need a permit. If you do, you can expect to pay between $50 and $150 for the permit alone. Your tree removal company should pull the permit for you and include the permit fee in your total.

The fastest ways to remove a tree stump are by grinding it or burning it.

Stump grinding is often the quickest method, with professionals able to chip away a stump and its roots within a single session. You have the option to hire a professional stump removal service or rent a stump grinder to do it yourself. However, it's important to note that these machines can be large, difficult to transport, and dangerous to operate without prior experience. For safety reasons, hiring a local arborist or landscape specialist is often recommended.

Burning is another fast option. Before you begin, check your local burn laws. The process involves drilling holes into the stump, filling them with vegetable oil, and waiting 24 to 48 hours. Afterward, you can add charcoal bricks to the surface and light the fire, which must be attended at all times.

For a more affordable but much slower alternative, you can use potassium nitrate pellets to accelerate the natural decomposition process. This method typically takes four to six months.

Planting trees far enough from your foundation will protect your home from root damage, but if you’re dealing with existing trees, you can still guard against roots. Root barriers form a physical boundary that will prevent roots from encroaching on your foundation and can help save you from expensive foundation repair costs.

Yes, it’s okay to trim low branches on a tree, also known as limbing up or raising the crown. Essentially, you’ll trim the lower third of the tree (trunk) and leave the upper two-thirds of the tree (crown). Arborists recommend trimming 20% of a tree’s leaves per season for two to three seasons. Trimming low branches allows light to flow through the tree, increasing circulation and making the tree stronger and healthier.
