"It went well. William Podeski and his assistant came out and were finished in about an hour. He came out the day before and quoted us an affordable price, and gave advice as to how to trim the trees without damaging them. They trimmed several branches off three of our large trees that were close to the house. The price was very fair, especially when compared to the rates of other tree service competitors in the area and they did an excellent job. As the trimming work was for an insurance company, he gave the best advice he could on what they would be looking for with trimming, and offered to come back out at no charge if the insurance company had any further complaints about the trees. We would definitely hire them again and recommend them to others looking for a quality job at an affordable price!"

"Cons: they rescheduled with us 3-4 times because they had more important customers apparently. Spike climbed my healthy oak without asking or warning: this is very bad for the tree and could eventually kill it. At a minimum it needs to be treated as a result. Borderline unsafe workers. I watched one guy nearly pulled off the roof grabbing large roped sections of log being swung down. Pros: cheapest quoted price to take down my large tree. You get what you pay for. Cleaned up and hauled away everything well."

"So the large troop of workers did exactly what they advertised.  The Maple tree in my back yard was quite large and had been damaged in a past ice storm.  That damage made the tree lean in a precarious manner that I wasn't comfortable cutting down.  That tree was apparently a piece of cake.  The very large Pin Oak trees were also broken in the previous storm and large enough to possibly hit my home.  The trees were dropped and didn't even come close to my house.  The other issue with the two oaks was they were intermixed in a substantial garden and were very close to a very mature Japanese Maple, Tri-color Beech, two Blue Spruces and the other parts of my garden ? they hit NOTHING.  Perfect drop.  Then a couple of their workers made it up the other trees and trimmed out all the broken, dead and dangerous branches out of the trees.  The whole job was 2 hours and 20 minutes, I timed it.  I have done this work on my own many times (property is 4 acres) when its safe to do it.  It would have taken me days to get all of this done.  Again I couldn't drop 2 out of the 3 trees due to safety issues.  They chipped the branches and left the logs for my fireplaces.  The team of men then proceeded to rake up the back, front, and trimmed up areas as well as my driveway (which is not short).  Every single man there was very kind, professional and polite.  They were very concerned that I was happy with the job from start to finish.  They not once took a break or asked me for a thing which would have been understandable since it was literally 3 degrees and about 10 below with the wind chill.  Did I mention they gave me the option of keeping the chips for my gardens or LMI hauling them away? Sounds silly to some, I did opt to have them hauled off.  However I could have kept them for spring use.  It was a thoughtful offer and had it not been the dead middle of winter I would have kept the chips.  Trees were about 3 stories for the maple 4-5 stories tall for the oaks, all very mature trees.  Couldn't be happier. 
Thank you LMI if I need tree removal or trimming in the future I know who I am calling.

FAQs for tree service projects in Lakeland, MI

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.
