"Cleaned up problems but over sprayed weed killer on landscape plants killing and stunting some. Owner responded promptly. We agreed on remedial action including no more use of spray boom on my lawn. I have full confidence in Larry and expect them to earn straight "A"s next time around"

"I purchased an Angie's List deal from this company -- $230 for up to 4 hours of leaf removal. I couldn't be happier. They scheduled quickly and at my convenience, on the day I work from home. Mr. Brison came himself with two workers -- pretty much unprecedented in my experience (sorry I didn't realize it was you at the time, I had forgotten the name of the company I booked with!). The work was done in the alotted time, with all the leaves from the front and back of our tree-filled corner lot cleared. Mr. Brison walked around with me after the job was done to ensure I was satisfied, and gave me a little additional advice about some of my trees and shrubs. I will definitely be using this company for future landscape projects. I paid an additional $75 dump fee for the leaves and a few big branches, which is standard in my experience."

"The lawn looks a lot better today than it did before I hired Scott.  Each time he applies fertilizer, he leaves a note explaining exactly what he did and what I can do to improve the lawn such as raising the mower height and thinning out tree branches where there is too much shade.  He aerated and seeded the entire yard recently.  Areas that were totally bare are now covered in thick green grass."

FAQs for trees & shrubs treat, protect and maintain projects in Port-penn, DE

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.
