"Very pleased with the work that was done. The crew was very professional, considerate and cleaned up afterwards. The trees were between the houses and Butch was very careful as to where the branches and trunks would land after cutting. The job was done in one day."

"I got a call from Escape tree service with in hours of being contacted by home advisor of options. We set an appointment to meet at 6pm. Bart was on time. We walked the yard to show him what I needed. He counted stumps (12) and calculated cost. He gave me a cost the that made me smile and then said he could do it right then-bigger smile. Within two hours it was all done- initial review of job to paid and final goodbye. So nice to work with a pleasant person. He didn t seem bothered that my gate was too narrow and he had to go buy a tool to remove wheels on his equipment."

"East Coast Trimmers LLC is a very professional company. They do large jobs such as removal of tall pine trees and clearing of large square footage. I was very hesitant to call them. I felt my project wasn't going to be of interest. I called anyway. They did the job in a timely manner. I am very happy that they took on the job. If you are in need of a tree service company call East Coast Trimmers. Excellent customer service."

"Christian and his team were easy to work with. No matter what I asked them to do they did it with a smile. They were professional but also down to earth. After they finished the trees, they cleaned up better than I would. Great folks to hire They were very polite and courteous. I felt like I had known them all my life. That type of people are hard to come by these days."

"I did not request an estimate from Josue Tree Services (JTS) because they are in Newport News & I thought I'd get a quicker response from providers on the Tidewater side. Angi notified me that JTS was interested in the job, so I reached out. I am so glad I did. He was very accommodating, & was willing to come provide an estimate after I got off work at 5:00pm. The fact that he was willing to deal with tunnel traffic impressed me. He was very personable, and willing to do the job for a reasonable amount. Initially I just wanted a tall gumball tree cut from the front yard, & a large mulberry tree out of the backyard that could only be accessed by a small gate. I ended up asking him to clear an area at the back of my property that was overgrown & needed several small trees removed. He was more than willing. He was able to schedule me for the same week. He and his team were punctual, and respectful of my property. They started at 7am & were done by noon. Very happy with the job they did."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Leaving a dead tree can expose your other trees to potential diseases, pests, and fungi, and it can also be a hazard. If your tree is dead, then you should hire a tree maintenance service to remove it. Cutting down trees is extremely dangerous, and a professional can ensure no one gets hurt and there is no damage to your property. Tree removal costs between $200 and $2,000 and will prevent future issues and keep you and your property safe.

Transporting a fully-grown tree requires heavy equipment, typically specialized for the task. A tree spade is a truck-mounted tool that removes the tree from the ground in one location, transports it, and places it in a new hole in a new location. A combination of mechanized shovels and lifts is necessary to move very large trees, and the exact tools often depend on location and the surrounding area.

Some trees will bounce back just fine, and others will struggle and possibly die. Evergreens, for instance, have a very difficult time recovering after droughts and usually die after periods of extreme dryness. Usually, you’ll have to just wait and see—if the drought occurs in wintertime, it’s possible that your tree will recover during the gentler springtime.

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

If you’re wondering whether you can plant a tree where the stump was removed, know that the soil conditions won’t be ideal, so you should avoid it. The soil beneath the previous tree will likely be depleted of nutrients, plus there may be roots left behind that will seriously hinder the growth of a new tree. Also, if you use salt or other chemical solutions to kill the stump, these can linger in the soil for months or even years and prevent healthy growth. It’s best to choose a different spot that’s at least three feet away for a new tree, or wait at least a year and thoroughly amend the soil before you plant.
