"Great. Their initial time frame was long (they were scheduling up to two months out), but I mentioned I was hoping for sooner. When, four weeks in, they had a sudden opening, due to a job in my neighborhood finishing early, they called to arrange and were there within an hour. Late notice meant I could not be home, but the arborist reassured me by speaking with me on the phone. The tree pruning was smart and sensitive. When I expressed some disappointment with underprunung on a big shrub, the arborist arranged to come back to fix it the following week. Super responsive, willing to explain recommendations."

"Dayton was Absolutely Awesome to work to with! I will be honest and say I stumbled across him after spending hours on the internet & phone speaking with very well known companies, but with also very rude customer service! After an exhausting day of getting no where, Dayton had replied to one of my many online quotes for tree removal I had requested and he came out the very next day! He was polite, he was punctual, he had great communication and the work he provided was beyond excellent! I also canâ t say enough about the meticulous cleanup job that he did. I was concerned there was going to be quite a mess because we do have a dog, but he did AMAZING!! He also recommended some trees we could plant in the spring, so we are also going to have him come back out to help us plant more trees to replace the ones he had to take down."

"The JCE crew was excellent. Very professional, They cleaned up after the work better than any contractor I have ever used. They were very prompt and quick with the work. They removed two large trees very close to our house. I would recommend JCE to anyone and if I need another tree removed they will be my first call."

"Right from the start C& S Landscaping was very professional and very enjoyable to talk to about my needs I wanted to accomplish in my yard. We walked around the yard and he understood what I was looking at to clean up the yard. Pictures were taken when the yard was completed. I was very impressed with the way the yard looks and made me feel proud of my house again!! I very highly recommend hiring this company for anyone needing help to accomplish your yard project!!! Thank you for giving me a gorgeous yard again!!!"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, burning wood with Dutch elm disease is a safer way to dispose of it than, say, tossing it in with the rest of your yard waste, which could potentially allow it to spread to healthy trees. But it’s always a good idea to check with your local government to make sure you’re complying with any ordinances about removing diseased trees as well as burning brush piles.

You can remove a small tree from your yard if there’s space for the tree to fall, you have the right tools and safety equipment, and you follow a clear plan of action. You’ll just want to follow the steps above carefully, and ideally, you will have experience doing similar tasks. If you have any doubts that you can do this project safely, though, you should hire a pro.

If you don’t stake a tree that needs support, it could be at greater risk of being damaged or failing completely, whether it uproots or falls over. That could cause damage to your property or other surrounding trees. If you want to grow healthy trees, you may need to stake them for best results.

How often and long you should water a tree depends on the species and if it is mature or newly planted. The amount of water is also based on the tree's size. A good rule of thumb is approximately 5 gallons per inch of the trunk's diameter.

Adjusting watering to the recommended suggestions for the tree type and weather conditions is vital. For instance, watering trees during a drought is necessary, and you may need to water more frequently than usual.

Unfortunately, palm tree stumps are one of the most difficult types to remove due to how their roots grow. Unlike other trees, palm tree roots grow horizontally and vertically. Palm tree roots grow as deep as three feet into the ground, although soil and growing conditions could mean they go as far as 50 inches into the earth. 

If you want to be able to repurpose the grass in the area where you removed a stump later, you’ll have to dig quite deep—and perhaps wide—to trim away all the roots.
