"He and his wife came out to my home on 9/30/17 and trimmed out three oak trees away from my home. The limbs had grown over the top on my home was were starting to scrape the roof some. He was very professional, took his time and made sure as he fell the branches that they were tied off well to keep from hitting the house. I would highly recommend his services to anyone that needs them."

"If you are looking to have stumps removed, look no further than Carolina Tree Service. I needed 11 stumps removed! Super Stump Man, Larry Wallace came out and he initially said, he would remove some of them that day and come back at a later date to remove the others. However, he removed all eleven stumps in record time! In my book, he is the superhero of stump removal, period."

"Exceptionally well! We agreed upon an 0830hrs start time and the crew arrived spot on, which pleased me greatly. Daniel Falkner Sr. (Owner) promptly suited up, climbed and topped the tree, with his crew performing all needed actions to cable the tree sections away from the home to a safe location expertly. They also removed a leaning, mature, tall Oak, directly positioned to fall on and destroy my new Well House, with equal professionalism and expertise. Seeing these men knew their trade, I had them also remove a mature Pine tree somewhat adjacent to the Poplars that were removed. Their price was fair as a well-coordinated, professional job, which I am very satisfied with! I am a retired General Building Contractor and would hire these men in a heartbeat as they professionally completed their portion of this job. I expect that when I hire anyone and am very pleased with Treemasters, to say the least. They did exactly what they said they would do on time, without issue, for the price they stated, and without stress or concern to me. In all, four large, mature trees were taken down safely and professionally within three hours (we agreed I was responsible for removing the timbers and brush). Even so, Treemasters gathered the trimmings into manageable piles which made my portion of this project easier. Thank you Treemasters for a professional job at a reasonable price!"

"LTE was very professional in their attitude and in completing the contracted job. They were quick efficient and cleaned up after themselves. If you didn't miss the tree - you wouldn't know they had been there. I would hire them again if the occasion arose."

"I had an ancient black walnut tree in my yard that was obviously dying. Two years ago in a short but severe summer storm a huge piece of the tree came down.  Where it broke off it was rotted. There were other clear signs that the tree was in distress.  To make matters worse, what was the biggest part of the tree was leaning toward my circa 1790's house.  I've sweated out every big storm for the past few years.  I had a feeling that the next "Isabelle" would bring the tree down.  It was also 10 feet from an outbuilding and about 30 feet from another one.  There was a very slim area, that if the tree did come down, that it would NOT hit anything.  Odds were, however, not looking good that this would happen!
I called other tree services.  Nobody called me back --EXCEPT-- Jonathan.  As stated above, we played phone tag because it was the holidays.  That was OK.  I wasn't in a hurry and as it wasn't the height of summer storm/hurricane season, it was pretty unlikely the tree was going to fall.
Jonathan came out on the day, at the time he said he would to give me a free estimate.  I liked him right away and could tell from his assessment of the tree that it was indeed in trouble.  As much as I love trees and don't want to cut them, I saw that I really didn't have much choice.  Sooner or later this beautiful tree WAS going to come down.
We again played "phone tag" but finally agreed on the date:  yesterday, a Sunday.
Jonathan and his team arrived at the time we agreed on:  between 8 and 8:30.  This is no fly-by-night tree dude:  he IS a professional, having all the equipment:  bucket truck, Bobcat, an array of different sized saws and equipment to do the job right!  He also took are to be properly harnessed to keep himself safe!  This man KNOWS his stuff - he's not a cowboy with a chain saw!!
He methodically set to the task of taking down the tree with utmost care:  limbing first and making sure the limbs did not hit the outbuilding.  When it got to the bigger pieces of the tree, he tied off the upper sections, making sure that these huge pieces would not come down on the outbuilding nearby. 
Seeing that this tree was so huge, he realized that he needed another piece of equipment for the Bobcat.  There was a break in the action while he and his team went to Crewe Tractor for a "claw"-type thing to lift the pieces of limbs and larger parts of the tree.  He was very concerned about not marring up my lawn too much, but also knew that this would make his job easier, safer and quicker!
Everything went very smoothly!  Of course I cried like a baby when the first few cuts went into the tree.  I love my trees and Jonathan and I discussed that previously.  However, as the tree came down, I saw that it was so sick and dying.  So, even though it still is hard for me to look out and not see it standing guard over the yard as it's done for hundreds of years, it was a good thing that I'd chosen to do this now.
BOTTOM LINE: 
I do plan on using Sadl-er Up Tree Service again for all my other tree work that I plan to have done. 
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND SADL-ER UP to anybody who needs any kind of tree work done. 
Jonathan is honest, fair, punctual, concerned about safety and the customer's property and a true professional. 
THANK YOU JONATHAN!!!!

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

It can take anywhere from one month to a couple of years for tree roots to grow back in sewer lines. Tree roots can cause extreme havoc on your sewer lines, potentially cracking them and causing untreated wastewater to make its way into the groundwater. Have a landscaping pro remove trees and roots before installing your system, or call a pro to do it retroactively as soon as you can.

It depends on the type of tree. Typically, late spring on the cusp of winter is ideal for trees about to emerge from dormancy and produce new buds. That said, late fall is ideal for certain deciduous trees prone to bleeding sap. Avoid trimming trees in early spring, when they’re prone to disease.

Usually, trees cannot grow back after their stump has been ground, but some very hearty types of trees can. For example, if you have a black locust or Redford pear, the grinding will need to go deep to prevent them from growing back. Ask your tree service or stump removal expert whether your tree can resprout after its stump is ground down.

It can be bad to leave a dead stump in the ground. A stump becomes a hefty piece of dead wood in time and eventually (especially with the help of rain) starts to rot. That makes it a locus point for diseases and pesky insects, as well as a bit of an eyesore. It’s best to remove a tree stump completely before it starts to decay, especially before it starts to fall apart. If the tree was removed because of disease, it’s even more important to fully remove the stump if possible.

A tree branch should start to form roots in about three months. It can take about a year for a tree branch to develop roots strong enough to go in the ground. For best results, start several branches because, no matter how closely you follow instructions, they won’t all form roots. Compost any that aren’t thriving.
