"I put a request out and Gordon responded in minutes. He provided a free estimate the same day and was able to complete the job within 36 hours of calling him to book. I am very pleased with the results! Gordon trimmed tree limbs away from the roof, cut branches off of our magnolia tree that were damaged during the recent snow storm. Additionally, he a beautiful job pruning our Holly and other bushes at the front of the house. The icing on the cake was he was able to offer his services for half the price of two other competitors.

With over 15 years of professional tree service experience, we are here to help you with all your tree service needs.

"Consummate professionals! Have used their services previously and i vontinue to be impressed by the sustained, outstanding, and superior work. They always exceed my expectations. Very affordable and goes the extra mile to ensure quality work. We started off with cutting down 2 large pine trees. In the exchange describing the work, I mentioned I wanted the stumps done as well as I had planned on another contractor to construct a retaining wall. I learned in that exchange they also do that work and exactly what I wanted for more than 50% less that the other contractor. We were so impressed by the work that we opted to do the side of the house as well as the tree out front. They also went the extra mile by adding top soul in ball spots in the yard, added top soil to a tree that was stressed out to poor workmanship by another contractor and mulched other areas of my yar that needed it to match the work done with the castle rock around the tree. They have totally elevated the curb appeal of our property. Love the work they do and they never disappoint. I will definately be reaching out to them again!!!!"

Trees and shrubs trimmings or removals FAQs

Professionals remove shrubs by first cutting back the branches using tools like pruning shears or chainsaws for thicker stems. They then cut the base close to the ground and dig around the root system to remove the roots completely, preventing regrowth. Finally, they’ll ensure proper disposal of branches and debris while complying with local regulations.

A bush stump will regrow if any portion of its root system remains. When even a small section of roots is left behind, new shoots emerge and regenerate the bush with leggy, spreading growth. Working with a professional landscaper ensures the complete removal of the stump and all roots, which is essential to prevent any regrowth, ensuring that the area remains clear and maintenance is minimized.
