"I got them on a coupon on Angie's List. They cleaned up. They spray the tree, you are supposed to spray the live oak tree cuttings with this black stuff and they did all of that.

What impressed me with them, like I said, we had used them initially when we moved back into our house after it had been a rental. The property manager did not make it clear to us that our trees needed trimming. So our back yard looked like Jurassic Park. It was just so overgrown. So we had 1-Two-Tree come out from an Angie's List coupon. They were here all day with three guys. They did a great job. They sent us a thank you card and they sent us a Christmas card. So when we needed more tree trimming, my husband wanted to use the guys that sent us the Christmas card.

They bring a crew that gets the job done efficiently, so you don't have 2 guys with a chain saw at your house all day. I like that. They have a certified arborist on their staff. They clean up. They were very receptive to requests that I had. I don't want them to cut off too much of the oak tree and I like our privacy in the back yard so I didn't want them to cut too much of the palms. They tolerated my hovering and answered my questions. So that is going to be who we use.

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Yes, it’s possible to overwater a newly-planted tree. Daily watering is great for the first few weeks, but it’s important not to go overboard. Excessive watering can lead to various problems, including root rot, fungal diseases, and a lack of root development.

Since overwatering can harm mature trees just as much as a lack of water, it’s important to know the signs of an overwatered tree. If your tree’s leaves are yellowing, wilting, or dropping leaves, it’s likely that you’re overwatering. Other common signs include rotting, fungi, soggy soil, soft or peeling bark, falling leaves, and brittle roots. 

If you realize that you’ve been overwatering your mature tree, stop watering and give the soil time to dry out. Then moving forward, increase time between watering sessions. 

Dying trees and even dead trees can spread diseases to other living trees. There are many different types of tree diseases, so it’s essential to address the issue as soon as possible to prevent the disease from spreading to other healthy trees. If the tree cannot be saved and is infected, you need to have it removed to protect the other trees on your property.

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. 

It is possible to burn out a tree stump if it is dried out and in an area of your property with a large buffer. Drill holes in the stump and dig around the base so it burns more easily. Then, build a small campfire on top using kindling and firewood. You’ll need enough to keep the fire going for many hours to completely burn out the stump, especially if it’s large. 

Monitor the fire closely to ensure it doesn’t spread, and have a hose on hand if it starts to get out of control. When the fire is out, break apart the burned stump and dig out what’s left of it.  

If this sounds like a good option, learn more about how to burn a tree stump before attempting it, as it does come with risks.
