"I just want to say that this company is the best! I would highly recommend them to family and friends! Young Sam is definitely a big asset to the company with his knowledge of the company! He was such a kind and friendly and so willing to help with whatever needed accomplished. Very professional for such a young man! They did a wonderful job cutting down my 2 trees and did a excellent job of cleanup. And they went above and beyond cleaning up my back yard of broken dead tree limbs, cleaned my roof off and my gutters! And again an excellent job of cleanup! The four men who accomplished all of this was exemplary in all that they did for me. Very hard working gentlemen! And all I can say, hire this company, they are the best in my opinion! A big thank you to this company!!!!!"

"Michael, who operates Landscaping and Tree Service Pros LLC is a very pleasant person and who is very knowledgeable about this business. I had two trees to take care of. After I submitted my request for a quote through the Angi app, Michael called me and asked for any pictures that I had. After I sent five pictures he called back and gave me his quote, which was reasonable for the job to be done. Because of the poor weather conditions he had to call to adjust the work schedule but within five days he called and was on his way to do our work. He arrived, with an assistant, and they completed the job, to my satisfaction. I recommend Michael’s Landscaping and Tree Service Pros LLC for your next project."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

A standard tree removal doesn’t include stump grinding. If you want your contractor to remove your tree and grind the stump, you must pay an extra charge. That said, you’ll likely save on the cost of stand-alone service—especially if it’s a small tree and they can finish both jobs in a single trip.

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

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.

Yes, it is highly recommended to remove tree stumps. Leaving them in the ground can lead to several problems, as they are not only unsightly but can also reduce your property's value. Stumps can obstruct landscaping plans, make mowing difficult, and hinder new growth. More importantly, they are prime breeding grounds for pests like termites, ants, and mice, which can spread to your home and cause costly damage to its wood and foundation. Stumps also attract fungi and diseases that can infect other healthy trees and plants in your yard. As a stump decays, it might sprout new, unwanted shoots. While removing a stump is an investment, it prevents these potential issues and enhances the safety, health, and appearance of your landscape.

No. Topping a tree refers to severely cutting down all its major branches and tree in a straight line. It was once recommended for streetside deciduous trees but has fallen out of practice. Topping leads to many problems, removing so much of the tree that many trees struggle to survive and become much more vulnerable to insects and diseases. Also, it doesn’t really help tree growth as once assumed and often leads to an ugly appearance of many sprouting stems in competition to become new main branches.
