"They were phenomenal! Ray got back to me right after I requested a quote. Was so friendly and confident, we almost didn’t bother with other quotes. Good communication. Showed up spot on time, friendly (even to my fascinated 4yo) and fast. Even impressed my OCD mom with how clean they were. They even re-homed a couple of Praying Mantids they found. Honestly just a great experience. 10/10, easily. Thank you Ray, George, Clay & Shawn!"

"I highly recommend Brandon Hepp for landscaping. He did an amazing job for us. He did everything as promised and more. His price was lower than the other landscapers I talked to, included more plants, and provided a one-year guarantee on the plants which the others refused to do. We selected â  deer proofâ  plants. His crew was hardworking and polite. I have another job that I am planning in the future and will definitely use Brandonâ  s company. ð  Â"

"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."

"These people were very friendly and professional from the first phone call. They were clear on what needed to be done and how it should be done. The crew that did the work were knowledgeable, professional, and safety orientated. Not only to us but to our neighbors also. Setting up the job and finishing up was extremely easy and smooth. And the price was beyond reasonable."

"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!!!!!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Pruning trees during the summer can be a bad idea because the new growth will take place during the hottest months of the year, which can stress your tree out. Similarly, pruning during the early fall can be a bad idea, too, because you’d be stimulating new growth when most trees are aiming to go dormant. 

Pruning recommendations will vary by the type of tree, but generally, waiting until winter to prune your trees is a good idea.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

Generally, no, tree topping isn’t a good technique, and you should avoid using it in most cases. Tree topping may be the only good option to save a tree following severe damage after a storm, but in most other cases, it’s not the right choice. Tree topping can leave trees vulnerable to disease and further damage, and most pros will suggest against it.

Deciduous shade trees (the type of trees whose leaves fall off in autumn) need to be pruned in late winter—between February and March. That’s because it’s easier to find and remove sick or dead branches when no leaves are present. And wounds close and heal faster in colder temperatures so pruning them at this time also makes them less prone to infection.

Horticulturist is a broad term for any type of plant and soil expert. An arborist, meanwhile, specializes in all aspects of tree care. You should hire an arborist when you need assistance with tree-related tasks, such as pruning large trees, removing trees, diagnosing a sick tree, or emergency tree services. Horticulturists aren’t qualified to handle those types of tasks.
