"I can?t say enough wonderful things about Brandon from Jones Tree Company! From the moment he arrived, he was kind, professional, respectful, and genuinely cared about doing a great job. He was very reasonable with his pricing, arrived right on time, and took the time to carefully cut the branches in a way that would help protect my home from damage. Brandon and his helper worked so hard, and when they were finished, they cleaned up the area beautifully. You honestly wouldn?t have known they had even been there! It?s not every day that you come across someone who takes such pride in their work and treats people with such kindness. I?m truly grateful for the wonderful experience and the care they put into the job. I highly recommend Jones Tree Company to anyone in Benburg County. If you need tree work done, give them a call ? you will not be disappointed! ??"

"None of the other "pros" bothered to contact me. Ausley immediately called me, set a time, I sent pictures, and was given an estimate within 12 hours. Anthony called me Monday and apologized because they wanted to move up my appointment. I was thrilled! The men came within the time quoted, did the work I wanted, cleaned everything up and were very pleasant and also informative as the man climbing had gone to school to be an arborist. They were wonderful! The owner called within 5 minutes of the crew leaving to be sure I was happy with the job. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Sharron H"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

It depends on the type of tree. Typically, late spring on the cusp of winter is ideal for trees about to emerge from dormancy and produce new buds. That said, late fall is ideal for certain deciduous trees prone to bleeding sap. Avoid trimming trees in early spring, when they’re prone to disease.

Unfortunately, palm tree stumps are one of the most difficult types to remove due to how their roots grow. Unlike other trees, palm tree roots grow horizontally and vertically. Palm tree roots grow as deep as three feet into the ground, although soil and growing conditions could mean they go as far as 50 inches into the earth. 

If you want to be able to repurpose the grass in the area where you removed a stump later, you’ll have to dig quite deep—and perhaps wide—to trim away all the roots.

If you’re wondering whether you can plant a tree where the stump was removed, know that the soil conditions won’t be ideal, so you should avoid it. The soil beneath the previous tree will likely be depleted of nutrients, plus there may be roots left behind that will seriously hinder the growth of a new tree. Also, if you use salt or other chemical solutions to kill the stump, these can linger in the soil for months or even years and prevent healthy growth. It’s best to choose a different spot that’s at least three feet away for a new tree, or wait at least a year and thoroughly amend the soil before you plant.

Trees should be pruned every two to five years, depending on its age and type. Young trees should be inspected and pruned every two to three years. Mature trees should be inspected and trimmed every three to five years, and fruit trees should be pruned annually with a careful eye on seasonal growth. Evergreens typically don’t need pruning, unless branches or limbs are damaged, diseased, or harboring pests.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.
