"The folks were very professional and friendly. They did an exceptional job on my trees and even went above and beyond fixing some problems with my fencing and outside stair railing. I couldn't be happier with their work. Highly recommended!"

"Excellent! They arrived on time, worked steadily, cleaned up thoroughly, accomplishing everything that was asked of them. For instance, one tree that had to be taken down was a dying 80+ foot spruce located within six feet of a spindly oak sapling. I asked them to be careful of the sapling as I wanted it to fill in the canopy left by the spruce. After the tree came down and was carted away, I looked closely at the oak for possible damage which I felt sure there would be. To my surprise, the oak was untouched, not a scratch or broken branch. This is a company of surgeons! I have more work to be done, so I'll be sure to ask them back. They're great!"

"I am beyond happy with the service. On time and went straight to work. Polite and listened to my requests. Cleaned up and removed debris. My backyard looks amazing compared to what they started with as I had a large amount of trees and shrubs. Would highly recommend this company. Plan to use for other services."

"Colton came and looked over the project prior to bidding. I received his bid and he said he could complete the project in a two-week time frame. His bid was competitive and I proceeded with the project. Both Colton and his crew were very professional and friendly. They arrived early and completed the project in a few hours. I would strongly recommend McMillian Excavation for this kind of project if you are in need of their services."

"A thoroughly professional experience from beginning to end. Everyone we dealt with acted/responded promptly, showed up on time with a can-do attitude, and did what they said they would do. When the crew doing the work realized they could not get their equipment through our rear neighbors' narrow driveway (as the estimator thought they could), they immediately came up with a different plan, to do it from the front. This they carried out amazingly fast--and safely. They finished the job to our satisfaction in the allotted time despite the change in method. We then made a mistake on the check we gave them. Ashley in the office caught that and called the next morning."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Late August, September, and mid-October are the ideal months for planting a young tree. However, the best time to plant a tree ultimately depends on when the weather transitions to fall-like conditions and eventually winter frost. As long as the hottest days of summer have passed and the ground hasn’t frozen yet, you can still successfully plant trees.

Debris removal is often included in the overall cost of having a tree removed from your property. However, tree maintenance service companies do not always include debris removal in their pricing, so ask any contractors offering tree trimming cost estimates whether or not removal is included. If you want to keep the wood mulch, ask if they charge extra for it as well.

Trees aren't big fans of moving, and they do go into shock during a transplant. Although most carefully thought-out tree transplants see the tree recover from the shock just fine, there is always a risk of having an unsuccessful move. Proper preparation, timing, and diligent aftercare are crucial to minimize the risks when transplanting a tree.

Trimming a tree can take anywhere from just two hours to a full day, depending on the age of the tree, the number of trees, and the species. Young trees are generally easier to trim, as their branches are often thinner in diameter and easier to reach compared to mature trees. They also tend to be healthier. If you haven’t trimmed your trees before or it’s been a while, the process could take even longer.

If you’re looking to rot a tree stump fast, potassium nitrate will work far quicker than copper nails. First, drill several holes into the stump using a power drill, then pour potassium nitrate pellets into the holes. Next, add water to help the chemical absorb into the wood, thoroughly soaking the stump to ensure the pellets dissolve and spread evenly. Afterward, cover the stump with a tarp to retain moisture and block sunlight, then place mulch on top to secure it in place.
