"One of our palm tree was snapped in half possibly by the strong gust yesterday. Overall, Fantastic jobs were done, although the grinder vehicle can not fit in the backyard door to grind the stump off, the company is able to gave me a further discount. Definitely recommend them for a fast, reliable and affordable service"

"10/10 stars! I was completely blown away from the night and day difference on my live oaks and water oaks. The canopy is lifted and I have more sunlight coming through, which gives my home a much BETTER curb appeal. Tony, the owner, was FABULOUS to work with. He was on site project managing and directing/ supporting his team. They worked quickly and efficiently. The pricing was EXTREMELY competitive, and I'm happy and confident that they 100% earned my business FOR LIFE. If you're wanting your trees cut, LOOK NO FURTHER."

"I am extremely happy with the service OM Tree Service provided to remove a big oak tree from my yard. Their customer service is excellent and their price is pretty decent. Marty (I believe he is the owner of the company) does what he says. It was late in the evening when they removed my tree. And when we checked the next morning, we found a good size of the stump still there covered in mulch and dirt and we called Marty to address the issue. He said they would take care of it immediately and in less than two hours he came himself with his monster grinder and took care of the problem. He went above and beyond and relocated some of the mulch and leveled the ground. I would recommend this company to my friends and family."

"They have done a wonderful job maintaining the lawn and are east to work with. I also hired them to trim the large oak tree in our backyard that had branches hanging over the roof. They did a great job of trimming, cleaning up all the branches and gutters and hauling everything away. I highly recommend them!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Tree experts don’t advise against digging through tree roots, but instead encourage caution and consultation with a local arborist to make sure you don’t damage the tree’s structure or interrupt its water or nutrient intake. An arborist can recommend specific practices when digging and help prune the roots or dig a trench for utilities with a tool that can remove soil without touching the tree’s roots.

You can use a felling ax to chop down a tree by following the same prep and steps as a chainsaw, but be prepared to use some muscle. For trees bigger than 7 inches in diameter, it can take some time and serious strength to cut down a tree using just an ax. 

Generally speaking, you’ll want to avoid flush cuts, which are cuts made as extremely close to the trunk or main branch. These cuts can weaken your tree, lower its natural defense mechanisms, and even cause decay. You’ll also want to avoid tree topping, which is the total removal of the leader and upper main branches of a tree. 

Most pros will advise against either of these methods, which is why hiring a pro is often the best choice when it comes to tree trimming.

You don’t always need a permit to grind a stump, but you might need one depending on your location and the stump’s surroundings. Permits are often needed if the stump is part of a protected tree species, near public areas or utility lines, or close to environmentally sensitive zones like wetlands. Some cities also regulate noise and work hours. Always check local rules before grinding, and contact your city or county office if you're unsure.

DIY home gardening can be relaxing, joyful, and cost-effective. From mowing your lawn to planting your own flower beds, there is a wide variety of gardening tasks that you can do yourself to make your yard look beautiful. If you’d rather spend your time not in the dirt, or if you’d like someone to take care of your plants for you, calling a professional gardening service is best. They can give you a workup of what services you’ll need and how often to schedule them.
