"Matt was straightforward and honest. Most reasonably priced of the multiple estimates we got. Ground the stumps out as well. When we ran into an unexpected issue (tree that we planned to keep needed to be removed), gave us options and recommendations. He will be coming back to do our front yard tree removal as well."

"Usman and his team did amazing work. I had two very large trees removed and stumps ground. I called one day, they came out and provided me a quote the next day and removed the trees the following week. They were timely, efficient, and reasonably priced. We’re mindful of power lines and sewer water lines. 10 out of 10 would recommend"

"After attempting to get quotes through Angie’s List from various companies that prune and remove trees, BroadLeaf Tree & Shrub was one of only a few that even bothered to get back with me; apparently, pruning trees right now is not the highest priority for many tree companies. I needed to hire a company to prune back a tree that was giving squirrels access to my roof, and thus, to my attic. That said, BroadLeaf did not give me the least expensive, nor the most expensive, quote; however, they did give me the most "bang for the buck" quote, focusing the work on the Oak tree that needed it. (Another tree company wanted to remove only a couple of limbs from the Oak, and then do some work on a Maple tree in my front yard which was not a real issue at this time - basically, an easier job for them.) When I met with Blake Mills on November 23, 2020, he was genuinely nice and professional, and was willing to answer all my questions; he provided his expert opinion on what needed to be done, which was in line with some of the more expensive quotes. He also recommended one limb of the tree be removed to prevent squirrels from getting onto my neighbor's roof; I actually expected this advice, but a couple of company reps did not give it, either because they were afraid of sounding too pushy or wanted a second job – along with another minimum fee. What really made BroadLeaf stand out was once Blake knew that I needed to move quickly on this project, as I will be replacing my roof immediately after this job, he was able to get me onto their job schedule today, December 10! (Most companies were not willing to schedule anything before January or February, 2021.) The crew that came out was on time, if not a bit early; I give kudos to any company that is on time! They removed the limbs originally indicated on the quote, but then also removed a couple of other branches that they thought would have allowed the squirrels to get onto either my roof or my neighbor's roof; this additional work was done without charging extra! They disposed all the tree limbs and debris, leaving the job site cleaner than when they arrived (yes, it is that time of year with a lot of Oak leaves on the ground). In the few hours since the work has been completed, and me writing this review, I have already given a verbal recommendation for BroadLeaf Tree & Shrub. As you can guess, I highly recommend them; I would use them again in the future if needed."

"They did an amazing job! We received tree chips from them which we used to cover our garden in the fall. Than they came back and trim of our 3 trees. The trim made the house look bigger and i don’t think our trees ever looked better! Tasha is a dream to work with and the ability to text makes it easier for this working mom."

FAQs for tree service projects in Hillsborough, NC

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.
