"Worst experience I ever had. Over priced, did not address my needs. Never listened to what and how I wanted it to look or work. Did it his way. I told him over and over again that safe access, drainage and ease of care were my priorities. Did not slope walkway correctly, water stands at front porch because of poor drainage. I pointed out the drainage situation several times and it still was not done correctly. I had a general contractor and a landscaper look at his work and was told the correct drainage system was not installs the wall blocks were laid incorrectly and the grout between the tiles was not done properly. Estimate to repair his story work 6-10K. I requested he repair it and he offered to dig a ditch right at my front porch, which would not solve the problem. I asked for retaining walls to be lowered, he failed to do so and now I cannot gate the fence without redoing the entrance to the walkway. Workmanship sloppy and ugly. Topsoil or straw was full of weeds. I will have to reseed come spring. Did not give workers breaks or timely lunch periods. Do not hire. I gave him excellent for responsiveness because he was johnny on the spot when it came to getting the contract. Down hill after that. His reply to my complaints was to ignore or say we had a contract. One of the worst, if not the worst unprofessional experience in my 74 years on this earth"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

A chainsaw is the best tool to cut down a tree, but you may also use a handsaw or ax. You may also want to use a lopper or pole saw to remove limbs before cutting down the tree. Wear chainsaw chaps and protective gear, including eyewear and earplugs if you use a chainsaw. Again, if you’re unsure about how to use this tool, this project may be one to skip.

It takes anywhere from three to seven years for a stump to decompose on its own. This timeframe can depend on the kind of tree and your climate. The lower to the ground the stump is, the faster it rots. If you kill a tree stump with salt, boiling water, herbicide, light deprivation, or burning, the tree stump decomposes faster. 

If tree branches cross well into your property line, in many cases, these branches become part of your property, and you can trim them up until your neighbor’s property line. However, this issue will vary based on local ordinances, so you should do your research before making any decisions. Better yet, speak with your neighbor about how to handle any tree issues. 

If you don’t mind the branches, you can leave them be, but if they’re becoming a hazard, it’s definitely worth having a conversation.

Ideally, you’ll have a good enough relationship with your neighbors that you can kindly mention this task in regular conversation. However, every neighbor (and neighborhood) is different. Your best bet will always be to ask directly and nicely, offering to contribute to the tree trimming efforts if you’d like. However, if you are bothered by the tree and your neighbor is unwilling to cut it, you can involve the help of the homeowners’ association or local authorities, if applicable.

Tree borers are difficult to control and remove once they make a home in your tree. However, with patience and determination, some methods can slow the damage or even eliminate the pests. But, once the damage is too much for the tree to handle, the only solution becomes removing it. Talk to a tree specialist early for the best chance at saving your tree.
