Customers say: True professional

"Great experience having this company cut down our tree. They not only cut the tree but left the area like one hadn’t even been there. From the first time we communicated with Oscar until the job was complete, he was very prompt to respond. Would highly recommend this company for services."

"I highly recommend Chauga Valley Grading for any grading or site work needs. They did an outstanding grade job on my building site and the results were better than I expected. The work was done quickly, professionally, and with great attention to detail. They showed up on time, communicated well throughout the process, and left the site looking clean and ready for the next step. If you?re looking for a company that takes pride in their work and delivers quality results, Chauga Valley Grading is the one to call. I?ll definitely be using them again in the future"

"When Mr Early surveyed the job and explained how we would do it, I knew he was a true professional. He even asked where the septic lines were so as not to damage them. He was conscientious to not damage our yard in the process, and this was a big job: 15 huge cedar trees were taken out as well as a line of bushes. Yard damage was very minimal, virtually nonexistent. About 10 years ago I had three other trees removed and the crew that did it left my yard a wreck. His price was competitive and he was on the job every day until it was done. I highly recommend his services."

"Pete was great to deal with. He kept me updated and even sent me pictures of the progress throughout the entire project. He did what he said he would do when he said he would do it. He gave me a quote so I would know what it would cost me and completed the project quickly. I have absolutely no complaints and would highly recommend Pete."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

You can shape a cherry tree by trimming vertical branches, dense branches, and intersecting branches. Your personal aesthetic comes into play, as well. If you want to simply thin and shape the tree, you can get away with trimming the aforementioned parts of your cherry tree. If you want to shorten branches, however, consider thinning cuts, which alter the length of the branches while encouraging light penetration, new buds and shoots, and a structurally-sound shape.

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.

Palm tree removal can cost anywhere between $100 and $1,800 depending on palm size, tree condition, labor, location, and the amount of prep work involved. With the necessary skills, a DIY palm tree removal for trees shorter than 15 feet can lower costs. However, it’s generally recommended that you hire a palm tree expert for tree removal.

If you’re taking down a tree that you don’t suspect is affected by disease or pests and it’s nowhere near your home or other structures, then calling in a tree company should work fine. However, anything more involved means an arborist is a better option. These pros have years of experience with tree removal and can safely take down trees located next to structures, and they have the tools, sanitization equipment, and experience to remove sick or dying trees without infecting nearby trees. 

The best time to cut down a tree is during its dormant season, typically in winter or early spring, after all the leaves have fallen. Removing a tree during this period is advantageous for several reasons. Frozen ground helps secure the tree stump, protects the surrounding landscape from damage, and reduces the risk of the tree falling in an unintended direction. With the leaves gone, there is less risk of the tree's foliage getting tangled with other trees. Additionally, since this is often a slower season for tree services, you may be able to hire a professional at a lower rate. This dormant period is also the best time for tree trimming.
