"I hired Blackburn Companies to do a major renovation on my 1890s farmhouse. This was a major project that involved adding a 1500 sq ft addition as well demolishing and rebuilding a second floor room. Nathan was the general contractor and managed all the other quality subcontractors - HVAC, Plumbing, Electrical, Painting, Roofing and Siding. HIs crew did the framing and finish work. The job was done on time and within budget. Nathan worked with on all scope changes and are extremely pleased with the final product. The before (an outdated yellow sided house) and the after (an updated green farmhouse)."

"This man was very methodical and safe ,aware of all surroundings. The old maple he took down was near 60ft high near 50 inches across the stump. Also pruned an old unruly apple tree which now is just loaded with apples. All in all we are very satisfied with the price and the work!"

"I requested quotes to cut down 23 trees less clean up. Trees were either dead, dying or too close to house. The playing field was level. No one knew what others quoted. Duane was the only one who gave me a copy of his liability coverage and a written quote. From the start he treated me fairly. When I notified the ones I didn't select, they wanted a chance to re-quote. I don't play that game. Duane is very much safety conscious for himself, his team and my house. Yes, I definitely recommend Copeland's Family Tree Service. I hope to schedule him late fall to mill down stumps in front of house."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.

Removing tree stumps is a dangerous and complex job that requires a high level of expertise. Many landscapers specialize in general lawn care and maintenance. But, some may have the proper licensing and qualifications needed to safely remove tree stumps. In most cases, though, landscapers will refer you to a local tree removal or stump grinding company.

The best way is to start controlling tree height long before it grows too large, via careful pruning through the years. But that’s not always possible. If a tree has become too high or too large, use selective pruning to remove the most troublesome branches, one by one, without topping the tree. Gently shaping a tree like this can, over time, correct problems. You can also find growth inhibitors to spray on a tree to stop it from growing too rapidly, but use these sparingly if at all.

DIY is risky and not recommended for large trees; professional services ensure safe removal and proper disposal.

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.
