"Leigh and his team did an awesome job taking down an 80 foot tree in my back yard. A bucket truck could not be used due my fence and clearances, however the spider lift fit through my gate and was awesome in completing the job. Leigh is very professional and easy to communicate with. His guys also cut up sections of both trees so that they could be split, seasoned and used as firewood. I would hire him again."

This is how the skyline looked after we removed several trees that were too close to the right side of the house.  There were more trees too close on the left side of the house, that can be removed in another project.
This is a good opportunity to see how we set up a  driveway job.  You can see our rear-mounted bucket truck, and plywood to protect the driveway as needed.  You can also see our chipper and chip truck, and our tool trailer is parked along the curb.
This is after getting set up to cut the largest tree.

Customers say: Quality work

"I've needed to get several stumps removed for a long time. It's hard to find people to show up and give you a quote. Oddly enough the guys at A+ tree service were driving by and saw that I needed work done. The quote they gave me was more than reasonable. They even performed the work same day. I would give them 100 stars if possible."

"Second Nature worked quickly and efficiently with me when I reached out to them about doing aeration for my lawn. The price was reasonable, and they seemed to do a quality job as far as I can tell. I only used them for the aeration since I normally do the fertilizer and seeding myself."

Small jobs welcome

"I recently hired Iron Brothers Construction in Nashville for tree work and stump removal, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. They did an excellent job from start to finish—everything was completed efficiently and within a very reasonable timeframe. The pricing was fair and competitive, especially considering the quality of the work. What really stood out to me was how personable and professional the owner was. He made the whole process easy, communicated clearly, and made sure everything was done right. If you’re looking for reliable, high-quality tree services, I highly recommend them. I’ll definitely be using them again in the future!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Debris removal is often included in the overall cost of having a tree removed from your property. However, tree maintenance service companies do not always include debris removal in their pricing, so ask any contractors offering tree trimming cost estimates whether or not removal is included. If you want to keep the wood mulch, ask if they charge extra for it as well.

There are several methods to hollow out a tree stump, and the best one depends on your tools, experience, and priorities. Common methods include using a chisel and hammer, a chainsaw, or burning.

  • Chisel and Hammer: This is often considered the easiest approach for those with limited tools or experience, though it is the most time-consuming.

  • Chainsaw: Using a chainsaw is the fastest method, but it comes with significant safety risks, especially for inexperienced users.

  • Burning: This can be an effective method, but it is not recommended unless you can first drill holes into the stump. Without holes, the stump will be difficult to light and may not burn completely through.

A power drill with at least a ⅜-inch diameter bit can make the job quicker and easier, regardless of the primary method. While you can use a chisel or chainsaw without a drill, it will require more time and effort. Always wear protective goggles and thick gloves, as splinters are an inevitable risk.

A grafted tree is a tree grown by combining two trees. It takes expertise. Branches from grafted trees don’t grow strong roots. Save yourself the time and frustration by having an arborist help you with this advanced project.  

You can often tell if a tree is grafted because it will have a noticeable line. Above the line, the bark will look different than it does below the line. It’s most common with fruit trees.

How often and long you should water a tree depends on the species and if it is mature or newly planted. The amount of water is also based on the tree's size. A good rule of thumb is approximately 5 gallons per inch of the trunk's diameter.

Adjusting watering to the recommended suggestions for the tree type and weather conditions is vital. For instance, watering trees during a drought is necessary, and you may need to water more frequently than usual.

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.
