"Willy and his crew do excellent work. We have had them work on our property for 3 years doing a Spring cleanup, mulching, planting scrubs and bushes, refreshing and extending red stone, removing dead shrubs, safely killing weeds, putting new sand between our bricks in our front and rear large patios, and emptying and cleaning our pond.
Willy’s pricing is fair and he is very knowledgeable of bushes, shrubs and correct placement and care.
We very highly recommend Willy’s Landscaping."
"Jay and his company are awesome! They listened to what I wanted and designed and installed exactly what would deliver what I asked for (color and deer resistant). And Jay continues to visit me, to service my concerns on a couple of plants that did not take (live) after being planted in Oct. Very competitive pricing too!"
"James was very professional and responded to our request very quickly. Did a great job removing our tree stumps! Would definitely recommend James for your tree stump removal and grinding!"
"This was a small job, basically grinding part of a stump that got missed by the original service. I wish I'd hired Gallagher to begin with. They were easy to reach, showed up when they were supposed to just for a quote, but the quote was so good that I was able to approve the work right away. And because they'd brought the machine with them they were able to *do* the work right away. It didn't take long but they took time after the grinding to clean up the site and leave it in good enough condition that it will be easy for me to deal with it later. I am really pleased."
"I cannot say enough about how impressed I was with Tomahawk. I wish I had known earlier and would have saved me some headaches. I had a huge Maple tree that needed to be removed with 5 smaller trees with stumps and brush. Came out on Wed, provided quote and job completed by Friday. Very professional! Clean and just an all around awesome experience. Thankyou Jim!"
Yes, you can prune a palm tree with a chainsaw, but a chainsaw is overkill for a job like this. You risk damaging the tree if you make a bad cut. More commonly, you’ll need pruning shears or a serrated knife to trim a palm tree, or you can use a specialized pruning saw instead of a chainsaw.
Common signs that a tree is rotting include dead branches, a leaning trunk, peeling or cracked bark, leaf discoloration, and the presence of fungi. If you notice any of these signs, it’s best to hire an arborist near you to inspect your tree and determine if it can be saved or if it needs to come down.
A dead tree should always be cut down, because it could fall and cause injuries or damage, and it can also attract insects like carpenter ants. A tree that’s diseased beyond repair should also be cut down, but it’s not always easy for a homeowner to tell. Signs of disease include dying branches, a hollow trunk, leaning, and discolored or missing leaves, but your best bet is to hire a local arborist who can evaluate the tree and tell you if it can be saved or should be cut down.
If the roots are still alive, the dead tree will usually try to put out new shoots. That doesn’t mean the tree will survive or that the dead parts of a tree will come back to life. If parts of the tree have died and turned gray or rotten, nothing will bring them back to life and they need to be safely removed.
Maple trees start the growing season by developing small groups of red flowers where the tree's fruit, the samaras, will appear in the coming weeks. Later in spring, the samaras, which many call whirlybirds or similar names, develop into single-winged seed carriers that spin when falling or drifting in the wind.
