"I had 10 trees that were damaged or down from a bad storm. Timberwolf provided a quick quote and quickly removed the trees, ground the stumps and prepared the area for grass."
"They came to check out the project before offering a quote. When they did give a quote they went into detail regarding how they would do the project with minimal damage to our lawn. When the work was done (very professionally) they did everything they said they would do to minimize any problems with our lawn. Absolutely followed through step by step what was quoted. Great experience working with this crew. Would highly recommend Timberwolf to anyone needing tree service."

"Excellent service! Devin and his crew did an outstanding job removing a very large and dangerous split tree located close to our house and power lines. The job was difficult, but they handled everything safely and professionally. They worked efficiently, were very careful around our property, and cleaned everything up afterward. The price was also very reasonable. We are extremely satisfied with their work and highly recommend Infinity Tree Service!"
"They were quick to respond to my request on Angi and they did a fantastic job grinding a couple stumps for me. I felt their price was very reasonable and they went right to work as soon as I agreed to their estimate. They did exactly what the they said in the estimate which was exactly what I needed to have done. They did a quality job and I am very satisfied with their work. I will hire them again. Added bonus was that they were very nice to work with and they made it fun for my dogs. The whole experience was a joy."
"Our little kitty had been stuck in a tree for five days, the hero’s at Pan Tree Specialists saved his life. We are forever grateful and will definitely by using their services again to have the tree removed. Thank you!"
Trees provide many benefits, including shade, habitat for local wildlife, and cleaner air, so it’s always a good idea to try an alternative strategy like crown reduction before you chop one down. But sometimes, cutting down a tree is the only option (like if it’s severely diseased). A licensed arborist can assess the tree and recommend the best course of action.
Unless there’s some sort of rule in your community’s homeowners’ association that requires you to remove a stump, there’s no law that says you have to take it out. If you’re not wedded to the idea of removing it, there are plenty of ways to get creative with this tree remnant. Using the stump as the medium for a wood carving or turning it into a planter are just two examples of ways to repurpose a tree stump.
Yes, pruning makes trees stronger because it fosters proper growth, weight distribution, and balance of the crown. By increasing the structural integrity of the tree through pruning, it’s less likely to experience disease, pests, broken limbs, and storm damage. Pruning the right branches and limbs is key to improving a tree’s strength and balance.
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.
You should prune ornamental trees once every other year after the fruit has matured and begun to drop. You should also prune out dead branches whenever you see them. Pruning too often can stimulate more growth, especially in faster growing varieties like Bradford pears.
