"I had never hired a lawn service to take care of my yard. I always did my own. Andrew Guffey was the first person to reach out to me. He gave me a very reasonable quote, and added me to his schedule. He mowed my grass and trimmed. When he left everything was cleaned up. I already have plans for him to do my snow removal...I am very satisfied with Guffeys Lawn Care. I would recommend him in a heartbeat. Thanks Andrew!! Another perk is that you can pay him online. Super simple to do!! Can't get better than that!!"

"I hired John and I cannot recommend him enough! Great estimate, timely, and did above and beyond what was expected. His team was respectful a d his price was very fair. I recommend him to anyone to has a tree or exterior lawn job. John removed a substantial Large Maple tree that was covering half of my homes roof, and ground the stump. He took out 2 overgrown 20â arborvitaes, 2 large pine trees and 30-40 year old shrubs. I was very impressed with the results, thank you John."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Ideally, you’ll have a good enough relationship with your neighbors that you can kindly mention this task in regular conversation. However, every neighbor (and neighborhood) is different. Your best bet will always be to ask directly and nicely, offering to contribute to the tree trimming efforts if you’d like. However, if you are bothered by the tree and your neighbor is unwilling to cut it, you can involve the help of the homeowners’ association or local authorities, if applicable.

The amount of time it takes for a tree trunk to rot depends on several factors, including the tree’s size, species, and environmental conditions. It can take anywhere from a few years to several decades for a tree’s trunk to rot. A tree stump, on the other hand, can take up to 10 years to disappear after it’s decayed naturally.

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.

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

The lifespan of a bird's nest depends on the species. The building process can take from two days to three weeks. Once built, the nesting period for baby birds can last from two to ten weeks before they leave the nest. While most young birds are ready in two to six weeks, some predatory species may need up to two and a half months. Some species nest four to five times per year, so a nest could remain in use for several months. For specific information about a particular nest's longevity, it is best to consult a wildlife professional.
