"I hired them to remove a tree stump. They worked with me during several snowstorms to reschedule a time and date that worked for me. They showed up ahead of time with a notice that they would and did a wonderful job for me. I recommend them for tree work"

I am a one person operation. Having been in the Green Industry for 39 years, I have come to the conclusion that the best way to take care of a client's needs is strictly hands on work. I will occasionally bring in day help. Payment is upon completion unless it is a large project then partial payment at start. I also install vegetable gardens using our own compost mix .

"Couldn’t have hired a more professional or knowledgeable person for the job. I thought I had purchased all the supplies needed for the job but was missing a couple very important items. Mike happened to have them on his trailer and didn’t hesitate to offer them for my lawn. He is a hard worker and knows exactly what he is doing. I recommend him 1000%!"

"I put a request out and Gordon responded in minutes. He provided a free estimate the same day and was able to complete the job within 36 hours of calling him to book. I am very pleased with the results! Gordon trimmed tree limbs away from the roof, cut branches off of our magnolia tree that were damaged during the recent snow storm. Additionally, he a beautiful job pruning our Holly and other bushes at the front of the house. The icing on the cake was he was able to offer his services for half the price of two other competitors.

"Steve Hazen and his crew did an excellent job. I requested to have 2 trees trimmed and 2 cut down, He said he can cut down all 4 trees for the same price. BTW the four trees were dead and still standing and was hollowed inside. I even added a few others. He showed on the day and time he said he would. I would and probably will hire Steve (Big Doggs) again and would recommend his services. "

"He was very professional and did an excellent job pruning my large sugar maple tree. It was most important to me to hire someone who was knowledgeable. I was impressed at his level of expertise and responses to my questions about my trees health, etc. He also did a nice job trimming shrubbery. This is by far the best choice and I plan to hire them again."

"Needed many large broken branches cut from trees, branches on the ground to be removed, 2 dead trees along with some debris removed and some stumps to be ground. Looking for a 5 star company and got a 7 star! The estimator was attentive to my requests and extremely professional. The price was very reasonable. They were in and out in one day and cleaned up the grounds beautifully. I couldn't have asked for better service!"

"C & E responded to my request for tree service and came to assess the project on the same day I posted it. Carlos came to my house at the end of his work day and walked the property to gain a thorough understanding of what I needed. We executed a contract, and he and his crew arrived the next day and removed 2 trees, a deteriorating wood fence, shrubbery and overgrowth, and trimmed another large tree. Everything was completed as agreed at a very reasonable price. I am thoroughly satisfied and will continue to use their services."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

Yes, most general contractors require a down payment for project completion. A reasonable down payment for a contractor is 10% to 25% of the total project cost, though that will vary based on project size and location. The down payment helps cover the upfront costs of materials and permits and helps ensure payment for the project at hand. 

Wood, vinyl, and metal are common materials. Choose based on durability, aesthetics, and maintenance needs.

Costs range from $2,500 to $10,000, depending on size, material, and design complexity.

Yes, it’s definitely possible to build a pergola on an existing deck. All you need to do is attach the pergola support beams to the deck’s joists and build up from there. Beware that mistakes can damage your deck, so if you’re at all unsure of the process, play it safe and hire a pro for your custom build.
