"Lino and his crew did an excellent job on my paver walkway and adjacent area. Everyone that walks by remarks how great it looks. They were very efficient and professional and worked very hard to complete the job. The price was very reasonable and less than several other estimates."

"Zach, came out during the week to draft an estimate and the work was on a Sunday 08-01-2021. They trimmed several trees, including the ones hanging over the power line. These two guys were very professional, the job may have taken them about 6 or 7 hours. They cleaned up the area and hailed the branches away. Their work was reasonably priced and my yard looks amazing. I will definitely be using them again!!"

"Roman’s team did a beautiful job with the paver patio and sod installation. It was transformational! He accommodated all our requests, such as adding compost in my garden bed and adding a cement small slab for a pizza oven. Would definitely recommend for any landscaping needs."

"Absolutely Wonderful Experience from start to finish. Gabriel came out and gave a quote almost immediately. Our landscaping was extremely difficult with a huge amount of weeds, dead plants and tree, and junk. It looked like a forest! In just a few days, Gabriel and his team did what I thought was impossible, and cleared out years of rubbish (weeds, dead trees, dead tree parts, etc...) The place looks clean and spectacular! They were also very careful of anything everything on the property, and they were Extremely reasonably priced! Gabriel and the team were also very friendly, honest and kind. I can only gibe the highest recommendation, and I could not be happier with their work."

"I was very pleased with their service. Very timely, they cleaned up when the work was done, they did three jobs for me 1) 70-foot tree, they got that done in half a day. 2) Business job, cleaned up around 11 trees here... 3) Referenced to my neighbour, they removed 60+ feet trees. Did very well, good teamwork from the crew. They said what they were going to do. I would hire them again!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Late winter is ideal, but if you’re pruning apple trees in the spring, prune them as early as possible in the season. You want to ensure your tree is just creeping out of dormancy and hasn’t started pushing out new growth. If you prune your tree too late into spring, you generally won’t see results until the following year.

That said, there’s no pruning season for unhealthy growth. Remove dead, dying, or diseased branches as soon as you notice them, regardless of the time of year.

Trees don’t usually grow back after being cut down. Some particularly robust tree species may start sending up new stems from a stump to recover, but those stems won’t become a “tree” like before. Generally, trees don’t recover from being entirely cut down, which is why it’s important to be careful when making a decision. When you cut down a tree, it’s a good idea to make plans to remove the stump, even if it’s unlikely to grow back.

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.

Poison oak is similar to poison ivy in that it's in the same family of plants. Poison oak is identifiable by its rounded-off leaves and hairy leaf texture. Tree-climbing varieties live primarily in western states while low-growing poison oak bushes occupy the eastern states. Treat poison oak like poison ivy to get rid of it permanently.

There are several methods to hollow out a tree stump, and the best one depends on your tools, experience, and priorities. Common methods include using a chisel and hammer, a chainsaw, or burning.

  • Chisel and Hammer: This is often considered the easiest approach for those with limited tools or experience, though it is the most time-consuming.

  • Chainsaw: Using a chainsaw is the fastest method, but it comes with significant safety risks, especially for inexperienced users.

  • Burning: This can be an effective method, but it is not recommended unless you can first drill holes into the stump. Without holes, the stump will be difficult to light and may not burn completely through.

A power drill with at least a ⅜-inch diameter bit can make the job quicker and easier, regardless of the primary method. While you can use a chisel or chainsaw without a drill, it will require more time and effort. Always wear protective goggles and thick gloves, as splinters are an inevitable risk.
