"Ollingers tree service provided excellent service for us after a recent storm at Lake Anna. They were on time, removed two trees that had fallen on our house plus additional large trees that had fallen in our yard safely with expertise and professionalism. They took the time to clean out the gutters, patch the roof and clean up the yard debris for us. We’d highly recommend them and use them again if needed!"

"-Knowledgeable concerning the impact of pruning a tree. -Punctual- he gave me a time when his team would arrive and they arrived at the appointed time. He told an estimated time to complete the job and it was done within the time allotted. - Very competent team. The climbers knew what they were doing. Part of the job was removal of large limbs over power lines. They removed the limbs without hitting the lines. The trees I had dopped, did not take any other trees or structures with them. -Has the equipment to deal with trunks as well as branches. The only service that I interviewed that used a chipper. -Last but not least, very reasonably priced. His contact information is on my phone for the next tree project I have."

"Excellent customer service. Same day callback to my HomeAdvisor posting. Steve, Eddie and crew were personable, knowledgeable and focused on doing a high quality job. Stump Busters has state of art equipment and trained staff allowing for safe and efficient tree removal and pruning in a fairly dense wooded area. And, they were very cost competitive. Two thumbs up!"

"I had 3 troublesome trees. Ricky and his crew were ready to work. They were able to come over and complete the work in about 1 1/2 hours. The crew removed the trees, raked up the debris, and hauled it away. I was amazed at the wonderful work Ricky and his crew did. I would enlist the services of Better Views Tree and Landscaping again. Thank you for a job well-done."

"Very reliable, honest about cost of projects. This was NOT an easy project. Had removed a barbed wire fence with trees going through the fence line and metal fence post grown into trees. It was a mess. Joe did an excellent job in the time frame he estimated. Highly recommend and I will!!!!!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

The best time to transplant a tree is when it is dormant. For many trees, this means either in the fall after the leaves have dropped (around October or November) or in early spring before new growth begins (around March). The ideal timing can depend on the type of tree. Deciduous trees do well when moved in early spring or fall, while evergreens are best transplanted in early spring or late summer. For example, pine trees are best moved in early fall, but maples prefer late fall. Avoid transplanting in winter, as the frozen or hard, cold soil poses a significant risk to the roots and prevents the tree from acclimating properly.

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.

If it’s only a smaller branch that has died and you’re keeping an eye on the tree, it’s probably nothing to worry about. But if other nearby branches start dying off as well, or a very large branch dies, then you likely have a bigger problem. It’s time to watch for diseases and other problems and possibly get professional guidance on how to proceed.

Palm trees aren’t much different than your typical tree removal. Removing a palm tree is a standard procedure as long as pros have the proper tools and supplies. For DIYers, however, there are some risks associated with palm tree removal. Palm trees have spiky fronds, bark, and patches of hefty wood. So, it’s best to let an experienced tree service pro remove a palm tree.

Removing tree stumps is a dangerous and complex job that requires a high level of expertise. Many landscapers specialize in general lawn care and maintenance. But, some may have the proper licensing and qualifications needed to safely remove tree stumps. In most cases, though, landscapers will refer you to a local tree removal or stump grinding company.
