"We had a large Ash tree and several large bushes cut down with all wood and stumps removed. Leo's was punctual, expedient -all work done within 3 hours, with lawn area cleaned up! They filled the stump holes and replaced the landscaping rock. Leo's is very professional. I highly recommend and will use their service in the future."

"Central Wisconsin Excavating (CWE) did a fantastic job on our project. They built a solid, well-prepared foundation for our 80,000-bushel grain bin and graded our driveways perfectly to ensure water drains away from our buildings. Their attention to detail, quality of work, and professionalism really stood out. The site was left clean and properly finished, and everything was done right the first time. We’re extremely happy with the results and would highly recommend CWE to anyone needing excavation or site work done right."

"Mike was great and easy to work with. He came out and gave us an estimate within 24 hours and was able to do the project within a few days. We are very satisfied with the work. We had 9 tree stumps that needed grinding including a very huge willow tree with massive roots."

"We have used A+ Lawn Care for a number of years. Was thrilled when they added the tree and arborist services. They showed up today to 'clean up' the sucker growth on 2 very large Honey Locust, a crab apple and a cluster of mulberry trees. As always the crew that showed up, were prepared to work, did their work, cleaned up after themselves. In this case, I reminded them we had concrete decorative curbing around 3 of the 4 trees. Installed by A+ Lawn Care but buried in the snow. They carefully cleaned the snow off the curbing so they knew where it was. No damage done. We weren't so lucky with another tree company - and there was no snow then. Our experience with A+ Lawn Care and now A+ Tree & Arborist were great. I have recommended A+ Lawn Care a number of times and will do the same for A+ Tree & Arborist"

"Following a bad storm in June, we had some damage to a large silver maple in our back yard. We called multiple arborist services in the area, and the only place that actually answered the phone was Canopy Tree Care. Despite how busy all tree services were at that point, Josh was out to check out our damaged tree within a day. He offered suggestions for the short term, explaining very candidly that he had other more urgent jobs, completely understandably - someone with a tree branch through their house is definitely more urgent than the minor damage on our maple! So we set a time for him to come back and give us a quote on both the storm-damaged maple and on trimming three somewhat overgrown river birches in the front yard. The birches were growing closer to an overhead electrical wire, plus they were just really shaggy and unkempt-looking. Josh was very receptive to my preference for keeping the birch branches as long as possible without actually being in the way. Josh provided the quote by email after I reminded him of it (he has been busy this summer). The first date we set was too rainy/stormy to do the work. The second date we set also had to be postponed because of a more urgent job (someone whose home was in danger due to a fallen branch). Both postponements were promptly and clearly communicated on the morning of the day when we had planned the work to be done. Third time was the charm, though, and Josh showed up with his crew and equipment promptly first thing in the morning. They did an absolutely incredible job! They didn't go tearing right into cutting stuff up; they started out by discussing together what was needed and how to trim effectively in a way that would be beneficial to the trees as well as producing the most aesthetically pleasing result. They spent several hours working on the birches first, and the difference was absolutely incredible - they're glorious and beautiful now! Josh also thoughtfully trimmed the branches over where my spouse parks his car a little higher, which my spouse appreciates very much. The silver maple went a little faster, but the same care and attention to both the tree's health and to its appearance were brought to that as well. The crew did a fantastic job of cleaning up as well, removing and grinding up all the branches they took down. They even found the little pile of branches we had waiting for the next city brush pickup and cleared that out as well! Josh's evident love and appreciation for healthy, well-maintained trees was evident throughout the process. We are very, very happy with the result, and we will definitely contact Canopy Tree Service the next time we need help with our trees."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Dutch elm disease can’t harm humans. In fact, according to Cal Fire, bark beetles aren’t even typically dangerous to trees unless that tree is already weakened. The problem comes when Dutch elm disease kills a tree. That tree is more at risk of falling and catching fire, which can pose a serious threat.

If you ever want to see the literal fruits of your labor, you’ll need to prune your peach trees. Without pruning, the trees may not grow or bear fruit since the nutrients will be divided among too many offshoots to provide any with enough energy to produce the peaches. Plus, if parts of the peach tree become diseased or pest-ridden, pruning can nip those problems in the bud.

In most cases, your neighbor is responsible for roots from their tree that cause damage to your property. If your pavement, the foundation of your home, or a fence is damaged by roots from a neighbor’s tree, you likely will have legal recourse for financial relief. While it’s better to notify your neighbor of any problems you notice as soon as they arise to avoid costly damage, there are some instances where filing a civil suit is your only recourse. Your homeowner’s insurance company might wish to do so on your behalf if you file a claim.

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.

DIY pruning is possible for small trees and shrubs with basic tools. However, for larger trees, more hazardous removals, or to ensure proper pruning techniques are used, it is recommended to hire a professional for safety.
