"I REALLY APPRECIATED the efficient and friendly work on a pretty warm August day!! The crew did an excellent job of safely removing the Arborvitae at the edge of my home, grinding down the stump and doing a perfect debris cleanup. I also think your price is fair. I'd be happy to recommend your company to anyone."

"It was great -- Nick the landscape designer understood completely what I had in mind, and he produced an excellent design. When his crew arrived, they knew exactly what they had to do, and they were very courteous and professional. I would definitely hire this company again."

"Alonso Landscape Service did a fantastic job of removing the 5 stumps from our yard. They handled contacting Diggers Hotline. They used a low-impact stump grinder that left no visible signs of its presence on the lawn after the job was done. They removed all of the debris and filled in the holes with fresh, smoothly graded top soil. They charged what we considered a very reasonable fee for the project. I would definitely hire them again in the future."

"I highly recommend Marvin's Brick Pavers and here's why - Craftsmenship, value, and trustworthiness. My walkway sunk and was nearly a foot below the first step up to the front porch. A friend recommended Marvin's Brick Pavers because they built a beautiful backyard patio that I would compliment every time I visited their home. While I did get two other estimates, not only did the other providers pitch a lot of additional work I could neither afford, nor thought needed to be done, they couldn't meet to provide an estimate in a timely manner, did not guarantee their work, and their price points were much higher than Marvin's Brick Pavers. From cost estimate through project completion, Marvin's Brick Pavers were responsive, efficient, knowledgeable, and competitively priced. More than that, they are true craftsmen! They didn't just bring my walkway up to code, their work enhanced my house and property value, and they guarantee their work for five years! Most important, it was an effort for my elderly father to get up that first porch step for way too long, and I cried happy tears at the smile on his face when he effortlessly made the climb thanks to Marvin's awesome work. I never thought I could love a paved walkway, but I think I do!"

"Jayden and his crew did a fantastic job removing old poles (at least 10 poles, some 10-15+ foot in height and required extensive digging) and also removing dead trees along with hauling all of the debris away. I highly recommend Jay’s Lawn and Lanscape as they are professional, reliable and amazing at what they do!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

If it’s only a smaller branch that has died and you’re keeping an eye on the tree, it’s probably nothing to worry about. But if other nearby branches start dying off as well, or a very large branch dies, then you likely have a bigger problem. It’s time to watch for diseases and other problems and possibly get professional guidance on how to proceed.

You should avoid cutting off the top of mature cherry trees. This process is called tree topping, and it’s not recommended for cherry trees—or any trees, for that matter. Tree topping removes between one-third to half of the length of the tree trunk, resulting in structurally unsound, fruitless suckers. The only exception is for saplings. Young pie, sour, and tart cherry trees that are over 30 inches tall in the fall or winter before the tree blooms can benefit from heading cuts.

Although the terms tree trimming and tree pruning are used interchangeably, they are very different types of tree maintenance. Tree trimming involves enhancing the appearance of your tree by removing unruly branches, providing your tree with ample sunlight and nutrients and prevents unsightly overgrowth. 

Tree pruning helps keep your trees disease-free. This process removes unhealthy growths, dead branches, and other unhealthy parts of the tree. It’s more common for deciduous and ornamental trees but not so common for evergreen trees. To determine which method you need, discuss it with a tree trimming specialist.

No, you should never top maple trees. Topping injures the tree and leads to the rapid growth of a weak canopy, which can be hazardous to rooftops and utility lines. Removing the crown can also leave the interior bark vulnerable to sun damage, leading to insects and disease. A topped tree can also reduce property value and permanently damage the appearance of a tree.

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.
