Are you tired of these cleaning companies that promise a certain quality or time slot and not living up to your expectations? Having a new crew every cleaning (so different people in your house that are on a time schedule so stuff repeatedly get missed.? Would you enjoy Affordable rates? I have recently left a cleaning company to open my own affordable reliable cleaning service with over 15 years experience family owned and ran with many references.

"Here is my experience with this company. We wanted to hire a lawn care company to keep our lawn healthy and green. LCS Lawn Service did an assessment of our lawns in two locations. After their assessment, they provided me a 9-step lawn care treatment plan for each location. After 1 treatment in one location and two treatments in the other location, our grass has died / dying. After sending photos of their disastrous 1 or 2 treatment results, their solution to my dead / dying grass is for me to water the lawn more. NEWSFLASH: It has been raining. So, their watering solution was a worthless suggestion. My neighbors’ lawns in both neighborhoods are green. My neighbors received the same amount of rainwater as my lawns. If my neighbors’ grass is green, my grass should be green. Instead, my neighbors’ grass is green, and my lawns are dying. LCS Lawn Service did not offer any solutions on how they will correct this dying grass situation which is progressively getting worse. After complaining and emailing photos of my dying grass, a company representative did call me. She was going to set up an appointment with their people to meet me at each location to discuss this situation. To date, I have not heard from them."

"Hired Dennis to remove several yards of dirt from my driveway and he had same day availability at a very reasonable price that beat all other quotes (less than half the price). He even helped me move the rest of my mulch pile around my yard. Would highly recommend, great experience!"

The optimal transplanting season depends on your tree species, but most trees respond best when moved during dormancy. For deciduous trees, late fall after leaf drop or early spring before bud break provides the lowest stress periods. Evergreens transplant better in early fall or late summer when soil temperatures remain warm enough for some root growth. Avoiding transplanting during active growth periods helps trees direct energy toward establishing new roots rather than supporting foliage.
While technically, trees of any size can be transplanted with the right equipment and expertise, practical considerations limit what's reasonable for most homeowners. Trees with trunk diameters under 15 inches are most commonly transplanted in residential settings. Success rates decline as trees increase in size and age, with specimens over 24 inches in diameter presenting significant challenges and costs. For large trees, carefully weigh the substantial investment against the potential benefits and survival probability.
Most transplanted trees require one to two years to fully establish in their new location, with larger specimens often needing additional time. During this establishment period, the tree regenerates roots that were inevitably lost during the move. Signs of successful establishment include normal seasonal growth patterns, healthy leaf development, and reduced dependence on supplemental watering. The quality of aftercare during this critical period significantly influences long-term survival rates.
Self-transplanting is feasible for small trees with trunk diameters under two to three inches if you have proper tools and follow correct techniques. However, medium to large trees require professional expertise and specialized equipment to ensure tree survival and property protection. While professional services cost more initially, they achieve much higher success rates and prevent potential damage to your property or the tree itself. The investment in professional services often proves worthwhile when considering the value of mature trees.
