"Marcos provided a very competitive quote compared to other tree service businesses I looked at. His crew was on time, professional, worked fast but did a great job cutting down one tree, trimming several others and grinding down one stump. I have no hesitation recommending M & M Tree Services owned by Marcos (901-496-1735, 901-497-0887) to do all my tree service work,"

"I had great service from the start. Berto came to my house to assess what needed to be done and pointed out the limbs to be removed with a laser pointer. He provided a very fair estimate and brought his crew the next morning on time. They took care to protect my lawn from tire tracks and worked steadily and efficiently. After trimming the trees and making them look great, they cleaned up every leaf and bit of sawdust. I was very impressed. I will not hesitate to hire them again."

"Isaac called right away then came out to look at the tree. Price was reasonable, but the service was 5 star. The crew was awesome. They finished cutting down the tree and cleaned up really quick. I would recommend Chop Chop every time. The other tree trimmers didn’t bother to reach out."

"Excellent job from estimate to cleanup. I will hire them again for my tree work. I have recommended them several times to people with tree problems since they did my work. They completed the job in 24 hours from the first phone call to completion of cleanup."

"I am very happy with them.  They come out frequently.  I asked for advice on a tree and even though that isn't part of there business they came out and gave me information.  They go above and beyond.  I have used them for probably 5 years.  They have always been responsive.  They present themselves well.  They are sensitive to my needs.  They are professional."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

While there is a lot of debate about whether boiling water is strong enough to kill tree roots, it is not best to remove the roots from large, old trees. You may be able to weaken young roots enough to remove them manually, but boiling water will likely not do the trick for large root systems.

You may wonder whether tree removal is tax deductible: Tree removal is not tax-deductible for homeowners unless it's related to a federally declared disaster. In that case, the cost may qualify as a casualty loss. However, if you own a commercial property, like a rental home, tree removal could be deductible if it's necessary for safety, maintenance, or part of a larger capital improvement project, and you must hire a professional tree removal service and keep documentation. Always consult a tax professional beforehand to see if you qualify.

Homeowners are usually not responsible for trees that fall on power lines. Power companies usually have utility easements around power lines, which give them the responsibility to maintain any trees within about 15 to 20 feet of the lines.

We don’t recommend DIY tree trimming for a few different reasons. First, the tools required to trim a tree can be costly, up to $1,100 or more, for the ladders and specialized saws needed. 

Safety is another concern, especially when working with more mature trees. As a guideline, you should only DIY tree trimming when branches are less than two inches in diameter. Any more, and the safety risk becomes too high, which could lead to catastrophe. For this job, it’s safest to let a tree-trimming professional assess the work needed.

Licensing requirements for arborists, also known as tree surgeons, vary by state and municipality. Many areas require a license, which often involves specialized education and experience. Even if not mandated, it's wise to hire a licensed professional as they tend to have more experience. Beyond licensing, look for certifications from organizations like the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) or the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA), as this indicates a higher level of expertise. Certified arborists must typically pass a comprehensive exam. Always confirm that the arborist has a business license and is fully insured to protect yourself from liability. Seeking positive recommendations from local homeowners is also a good step in finding a qualified professional.
