"Jacob and his crew were very efficient. They took down six trees and trimmed one other. Two of the trees were fairly large. They did a very good job at a reasonable price. They careful and neat. They cut the trees close to the ground as I requested and cleaned up afterward, leaving the site neat and tidy. I was very pleased and would hire the J and T tree service again."

"Great company to do business with. Reasonably priced. Got the job done fast. They cut down 4 huge cypress trees and ground up the stumps all in one day and cleaned up all the mess. I was extremely pleased with their work. Very friendly crew. I highly recommend Paradise Lawn and Tree Service. Linda McGuire, Knoxville, TN"

"First time having to do maintenance trimming trees and bushes. Got a few estimates but this company was the only one that took time to explain what and how they were going to do. Also, they are very knowledgeable of different trees and plants and what to-do and not to-do. They were pleasant and perfessional. They exceeded my expectation on what they did. My fence treeline never looked so clean and the trees in my yard look healthy with an amazing curb appeal. Highly recommend this company."

"They did an excellent job. Arrived exactly at 9:00 a.m. and worked the entire day... I had about 12 stumps that needed to be ground down, and each one was done precisely as we discussed before starting. I would recommend this professional for any necessary stump grinding, including those in hard to reach areas."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Often, it’s the homeowner’s responsibility to handle the aftermath when a neighbor’s tree falls on their property. But if a tree has been obviously dead for a significant period of time and caused damage when it fell, a case can be made that the owner should have removed it, especially if the neighbor wrote you a letter about the tree or asked you to take it down. This can be grounds for a successful lawsuit in claims court and is a good reason to always pay attention to your trees and remove dead trees before they fall.

On grafted trees, tree suckers will grow from the root stock, not the branches grafted onto it. Therefore, the leaves and characteristics of the suckers aren’t the same as the tree because they are different varieties. Root stock has more hardiness, strength, or drought tolerance than its grafted limbs, so if the suckers are from fruit or flowers, it might be different than the main part of your tree.

Not all leaning trees are dangerous, but they can be a hazard as gravity may eventually cause them to fall. A key factor is whether the lean is new or has been present for a long time. Trees that have grown with a lean for years are not typically an immediate danger, but a sudden lean is a cause for concern as it often indicates weakening roots. If a tree is leaning more than 15% from vertical, you should consider having it straightened or transplanted. To be safe, it's always best to hire a professional arborist to inspect any leaning tree to assess the risk and avoid potential accidents.

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.

If you’re planning on keeping the tree, unless the roots are invasive, there’s no need to remove them, as doing so can cause damage to the tree. If the tree has been cut down and the stump and roots are left, grinding and removing the stump can cause root decay for some species. For other species, the stump and roots will need to be removed to prevent pests, disease, and possible tree regrowth.
