"Aaron's Tree service was very prompt and professional. Within minutes of inquiring for service, I had received a phone call and setup an appointment for a quote. They have completed the job a few days later for a minor tree trimming. Overall very pleased with the service and will use again in the future."

"Very Satisfied! Prompt, professional and courteous service. I've been in the service business for over 40 years and I was impressed by their attention to detail! They removed a massive Silver Maple that was 12" from my house and had huge branches that hung over my garage. They worked quickly, methodically, efficiently and respectfully! Best price for the job, too! Definitely recommend them to anyone needing tree removal, trimming, or stump grinding."

"My yard was over run by weeds, small trees and possibly some other life form and then we hired Daniel. They did an amazing job removing everything and regrading and cleaned up afterwards. Some might say it all dirt but thats the beauty because we can do whatever we want to it now. Great price . I have a few more things that need to be done in the front and on the side and i will 100% be hiring them again for these other jobs."

"The project was cutting 4 large trees in the yard down and removing the wood and grinding all the stumps. They got the job done quickly and very professional. The owner and the workers were very pleasant to work with. I would recommend them to anybody. And the price was very affordable. I will hire them again soon."

"I have a 30 year old Magnolia tree that needed trimming, and I was very afraid to let someone trim it because I don't want to lose the tree. Dino and his crew came out,assessed the job and came promptly on the service date. He also suggested trimming the front trees. He took care of all of them and did a great job. Very happy with the service and would definitely refer them or hire them again if needed."

"LR showed up to do the job on a Sunday. They finished the job and went above and beyond. All I wanted was for them to take down a branch for me so it didn’t damage my house, fence, and most importantly my neighbors new fence. They made sure everything went smooth and I’d recommend them to anyone. They are fast friendly and do a great job!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

You can use a felling ax to chop down a tree by following the same prep and steps as a chainsaw, but be prepared to use some muscle. For trees bigger than 7 inches in diameter, it can take some time and serious strength to cut down a tree using just an ax. 

Trees that flower in the spring—like dogwood, cherry, magnolia, and pear—should not be pruned during the winter. These spring-flowering plants grow buds on old growth, so you’ll actually remove what would’ve been gorgeous flowering foliage. Instead, wait to prune until right after they bloom, when the flowers fade.

Tree roots are hearty and complex systems, so they don’t die immediately after the rest of the tree is removed. If you leave the root system in place, it takes anywhere from two to seven years for it to run out of nutrients. It is worth noting, however, that the roots stop growing and expanding after cutting down the rest of the tree.

While there is a lot of debate about whether boiling water is strong enough to kill tree roots, it is not best to remove the roots from large, old trees. You may be able to weaken young roots enough to remove them manually, but boiling water will likely not do the trick for large root systems.

It depends on where you live—but in most areas, leaves begin falling in September and continue falling until January or February. Warmer regions, such as Southern states, may see leaves fall a bit later in the calendar year. It also depends on the type of trees in your yard and their maturity.
