"My grass was really high and he tackled the job no problem. He was polite and professional. My yard looks fantastic. It impressed my neighbor across the street how great it looked - the best in the 4 years I have lived there - that he asked for a business card. I definitely recommend!"

I come from a nice family who always told me that I would have to work hard to achieve my goals and to help take care of eachother. I have 2 kids that I love more than anything . Both are boys and I want to show them how a man is suppose to provide for his family . Growing up my grandad would take us to our land with 69 acres and we would cut huge fields of grass , and cut a few trees down as well. I’m 30 years old and had my lawn care LLC for 2 years. I’m very easy to talk to and everyone loves my energy and I’m always positive and love to see others smile.

"I am honestly speechless for the first time in my life. The 3- young men were absolutely PERFECT!!! My difficult = hard work landscaping project was completed exactly how i had dreamed it would turn out - but, even better. Honesty, kindness with human respect, communication (wanting to make sure everything was exactly the way i wanted it done.) They even uplifted my spirits to a height that i was beaming all day & after they left & onto the next day. The 3- young men are strong, full of energy & perfectionist. Their work ethics can only be described as "supreme." I am so pleased that they are young, because i intend on having them in my life for many, many more projects. They told me, "don't worry will take good care of you, everything will be just the way you want it, but, even better." The owner, Christian Hartung - the printed words on his business card is : Let us help create the yard of your dreams! True words spoken... My dream is now reality & i am truly enjoying the beauty that surrounds me in my backyard. THANK-YOU from the bottom of my heart & i will see you again soon. Miss Nancy :-)"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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 can trim just one side of the tree, especially when that side is growing near something like a power line or a home. Pros will carefully trim the tree back until it is safe from that structure. While this is common, it also needs to be done with the utmost care, as pruning or trimming away at one side of the tree may make it structurally unsound. This instance is yet another where hiring a pro is wise, especially if power lines are involved.

No, you cannot plant a tree above a gas line. Tree roots grow and spread over time and can sometimes dent, crack, or penetrate a gas line. Those same roots may also cause accessibility problems for maintenance or repairs. You can generally plant vegetation with non-invasive root systems, low-growing vegetation, and flower beds near gas lines. 

Transporting a fully-grown tree requires heavy equipment, typically specialized for the task. A tree spade is a truck-mounted tool that removes the tree from the ground in one location, transports it, and places it in a new hole in a new location. A combination of mechanized shovels and lifts is necessary to move very large trees, and the exact tools often depend on location and the surrounding area.

Tree roots are hearty and complex systems, so they don’t die immediately after the rest of the tree is removed. If you leave the root system in place, it takes anywhere from two to seven years for it to run out of nutrients. It is worth noting, however, that the roots stop growing and expanding after cutting down the rest of the tree.
