"We hired Gilliam’s Tree Service to trim two trees. They did a great job, were courteous, friendly and cleaned everything up well. We would definitely hire them again and recommend this company to friends and family."

Small jobs welcome

I offer land clearing and excavation. I am currently a small business owner with a 10 ton excavator and dozer that I use to do tree removal or grading work done. I also do small construction work/DIY projects, and any small handyman projects. I am very affordable and I’m willing to work with any customer.

My name is Michael Cale, I am in the process of starting up my own business called Cale's Hammer N Nails: Property and Auto Services. The plan is to get enough clientele that my boys can help expand the business. Currently my oldest is helping me on jobs and gaining experience along the way. Im out of Afton, TN on the north side 8 minutes from I-81. Im willing to travel for my services and I feel my pricing is fair across the board if not better. Currently looking to work out of Greeneville, the Tri-Cities area, and Morristown. Can go further out if needed too. I also offer hauling with my pickup I have if someone needs materials just picked up and delivered also or if anyone needs moving help from home to home. I look forward to serving this area with quality you deserve at reasonable prices.

"M&L best contractors I have ever worked with. Kept me informed throughout the process of work date and time. Showed up on time and worked throughout the day. Landon is a master with the small backhoe. They had to drop the 60 ft elm to miss the pool and a magnolia tree and only have a couple of feet on either side to drop. They dropped it in the perfect position missing everything. After clean up you couldn't tell they had been there. They also do other jobs like landscaping and foundation work. These guys were a pleasure to work with and they know what they are doing. I received a very high value for my money."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

You can find pruning paints and sealants for trees, but you shouldn’t use them on a topped tree. Coatings like these often inhibit the tree’s healing process. An important exception is if there are dangerous fungi nearby that the tree is particularly vulnerable to, like oaks and oak wilt. Sealing cuts can help prevent fungi from taking root.

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.

It's easy to misidentify trees that appear to be maple trees due to similarities in leaf shapes. Sweetgum, sycamore, and yellow poplar all have leaf shapes and appearances similar to maples. The fact that around a dozen maple tree varieties exist, only about half of which are considered common, makes misidentification an often typical occurrence.  

Your neighbor is not in a good position to know if your trees are truly dead or pose any kind of danger. That’s why hiring an arborist or tree service expert can be such an important part of the process. If the trees are still alive and don’t pose any threat, you’re in the clear (but you may want to document and photograph everything in case events turn sour down the road).

But if a tree is visibly dead and near the property line, you should remove it to be safe. If a dead tree falls on a neighbor’s property, they may have grounds to sue for negligence. If any branches on trees have died, it’s a good idea to cut them back for similar reasons.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.
