"We are extremely please with Katie and John. From the time Katie came to give a quote to the end of the job they were great. Did everything and more that needed done. Very professional and hard workers. I will never contact anyone else to do tree work for us."
"THE JOB---remove 2 40-50 ft silver maples with 3 ft diameter trunks. Trees were between the house and fences. Remove all debris and rake area clean. Kevin and crew arrived daily and on time. They worked steady even through the rain showers. Stump grinding by Brad Wadsworth was completed on tree 1 while tree 2 was being cut. Both companies worked together and efficiently, completing the job on time with no injuries or accidents. The house and fences were unmarked. Clean up was excellent. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND STILE TREE SERVICE LLC."
"Ryan did an excellent job trimming my shrubs, discarding some trees, uprooting a magnolia tree that was threatening the foundation of my home and making my landscape look so much better! He also went above and beyond, showing professionalism, being very helpful and kind. I highly recommend him!"
"Devin was very responsive when I called and asked for a quote for a tree that was close to our house. I'd heard he was good with that type of work and when he came out and went over the job with me he was very knowledgeable, and said he had a great crew. That left me very comfortable with the work he planned to do. During the job they were surprisingly quick with the removal and no debris was left behind. It was a fantastic experience and I'm glad I called him to do the work."

"Excellent service. The guys were professional and removed the tree quicker than I anticipated. They left the site nice and clean. Highly recommended."
"John performed the work as a tree surgeon. His every move was perfect, both in the trees and on the ground. You couldn’t ask for a better tree service. Plus his prices can not be beat."
"Josh Rutter removed a huge tree stump and the roots from my yard in Oct.10,2020. He does an excellent job, with a remote, in maneuvering a big machine thru a small yard. Dealt with unforeseen and unexpected interruptions very well. Answered all questions, was punctual and friendly. Would recommend him to all. The only negative...his company does not remove the mulch and he tells you this upon contract. I, like most folks, did not comprehend that I would have 3+ tons of it. As a senior citizen female, I could not remove it myself and went thru much hardship trying to find someone who would. No one wants this stuff, despite what some people say, and no one will remove it for free. Mulch removal was almost as costly as Rutters work. He is A GREAT WORKER and REASONABLE IN PRICE, JUST BE PREPARED AND HAVE SOMEONE LINED UP TO DEAL WITH THE CLEAN UP--IF YOUR FAMILY WILL DO IT FOR FREE BE HAPPY. I had no free help to work with and the mulch was approx 22 inches deep covering an entire 8x12 lawn. Then, be ready to plant grass seed."
"they attacked a tough situation with huge trees on a steep slope and had no problems. I was impressed. They were indeed very professional. This comment comes from me, a civil construction engineer."
Yes, burning wood with Dutch elm disease is a safer way to dispose of it than, say, tossing it in with the rest of your yard waste, which could potentially allow it to spread to healthy trees. But it’s always a good idea to check with your local government to make sure you’re complying with any ordinances about removing diseased trees as well as burning brush piles.
Whether you should remove the roots of a dead tree depends on whether they’re damaging nearby areas. For instance, if the roots continue to grow near sidewalks, driveways, or the foundation of your home, they can cause damage. If you want to plant something else in that spot, removing the roots can make it easier for the new tree or plant to grow.
Any cutting of tree roots can hurt or kill a tree, which is why it's recommended you don’t do it unless the roots are damaging or invasive on a nearby structure like your home. You should never cut more than 15 percent of above-ground tree roots at one time. If you have any questions about cutting tree roots, contact your local arborist.
Most tree surgeons cost around $100 per hour or between $70 and $200 per hour for their services. You might get flat fees for more straightforward services, like a tree assessment, tree removal, stump grinding, and one-off treatments, but many times, treatments for tree diseases or pests will be charged based on an hourly rate or a per-visit rate. Since the cost of a tree surgeon can vary widely, it’s best to speak with an arborist near you to get an idea of what your particular issue will cost to correct.
Yes, it’s possible to overwater a newly-planted tree. Daily watering is great for the first few weeks, but it’s important not to go overboard. Excessive watering can lead to various problems, including root rot, fungal diseases, and a lack of root development.
