"5 Star Review but it should be 10 stars but it only goes to 5. Prompt, Courteous and Professional. Did not try to sell me on things but gave honest opinions and let me make the decisions. Job was 2 trees and a tree limb that fell on my neighbors fence. On the day of: they did all work as promised and in addition took down an additional tree that needed to be gone and cleaned up extra branches at no additional cost. It did start raining and sleeting in 36 degree weather but they stayed until the job was completed. They made sure that the equipment didn’t damage my yard even though it was very rainy. I am definitely using them again in 2026 for multiple projects. Do not bother with the other guys quotes, I’m telling you I went down that road. When you find a company that’s REAL stick with them. Trees N Chips Gadsen, Tn. Is the way to go."

"Outstanding service and care on a very difficult project. They went above and beyond to protect the house and surrounding items when removing several large and overhanging trees on a steep hillside behind my house. Showed up on time and worked til the job was done. And clean up looks better than it did to start. Would gladly rehire for future projects. Tom W."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Trees that flower in the spring—like dogwood, cherry, magnolia, and pear—should not be pruned during the winter. These spring-flowering plants grow buds on old growth, so you’ll actually remove what would’ve been gorgeous flowering foliage. Instead, wait to prune until right after they bloom, when the flowers fade.

Once you confirm a tree is dead, you should remove it. Dead trees eventually fall, and larger trees in particular can cause damage to rooftops, fencing, flowers, and other objects. As we mentioned, letting decayed wood stay in your yard also invites risks to the surrounding landscaping and vegetation.

Peach trees don’t tend to live as long as other types of trees and crops. They tend to last only about 12 years, and you shouldn’t expect to see a full peach harvest each of those years, either. Young peach trees need a few years to get established before they produce fruit, but you should have plenty of peaches for your pies and cobblers during their mature years, around years four through eight.

Ideally, you should wait to prune until trees have gone dormant in late fall to early winter. The worst times to prune trees are early fall and late summer, as pruning them so close to dormancy makes it difficult for the tree recover before it goes dormant for the season.

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.
