"I needed 2 trees cut down and another trimmed back. From the cut down of the 1st tree I was impressed with his approach to getting the tree down. I knew I made the correct decision to hire him. Juan did an awesome job on getting the stumps down so I didn’t need a stump grinder. Cleaned up the mess left behind as if the trees were never there. I would highly recommend hiring JC Tree Cutting & Landscaping."

"William is great, gave us a good price and did the job by his word. A large magnolia tree was taken down and he's coming back to grind a large stump. We are very happy with the job he has done so far. We will use Cherokee Mountain Tree Service again if needed in the future. I recommend their services."

"We do not have words for the quality of work J and L provided. After six estimates, they beat the other tree services by thousands of dollars. The crew arrived on time, began work and did not stop for eight hours. We had six huge, dangerous white ash trees and a few other shrubs to be removed. I held my breath as they shimmied up the trees like squirrels to get the trees down. I have many flower beds and plantings that I was afraid might have to be demolished, but no, everything was left untouched. They cleaned up every last speck of debris. There are no words to recommend J and L highly enough for any tree work. We definitely want them to come back and remove other trees that are about to kick the bucket. Bravo for an exceptional job and exceptional workers."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Trees naturally want to grow upward, so one may straighten all by itself, though this only comes into play when a tree is leaning just a small amount. For trees growing into an awkward position or those leaning heavily in one direction, the above steps are necessary to ensure the tree gets back on the right path. This also holds true for trees planted in a spot with unstable soil.

White vinegar does not kill ivy on trees because its acetic acid concentration is not high enough to overpower it. Vinegar is an effective herbicide for weeds and other plants, but not for the strength of most ivies, including poison ivy and English ivy. You should use an herbicide to kill ivy, such as one with glyphosate, imazapyr, or triclopyr.

Generally, if your neighbor’s tree hangs over your yard, you can legally trim overhanging branches. Keep in mind that you cannot cross your property line to cut the trees, and if you damage the tree by trimming it, your neighbor could sue you. Depending on the type of tree and value, this could mean dishing out two to three times the value of the tree.

It’s worth noting that the specifics of this type of tree maintenance and the guidelines around it may vary by location. Do your research and, most importantly, consult with your neighbor.

There are a few things you should look for in a stump removal company to make sure you’ll be satisfied with the results:

  • Proper business licensing and insurance

  • History of positive reviews

  • Good rating with the Better Business Bureau

We also recommend asking any company you’re considering the following questions to help find the best value:

  • Will you remove the roots as well as the stump?

  • Will you haul away wood chips or large portions of the stump?

  • What method will you use to remove the stump?

Tree trimming can count as landscaping, depending on how a landscaping business describes its services. Professional tree trimmers are more specialized than landscapers and offer trimming services separately from general landscaping.

When general landscaping companies offer tree trimming, look up the details. They usually mean shaping or seasonal trimming of ornamental trees, which is different from trimming larger trees for health or safety reasons. When possible, look for a licensed expert that specializes in trees and tree health.
