I have a Live Oak in my yard that I was told 17 years ago would not survive the cold in Charlotte but is still doing well. Some smaller branches had died and some need pruning. I wanted a company who knew trees and would respect my love for this tree. As it turned out, the crew chief had spent several years in Charleston, SC and was very familiar with Live Oak trees. They pruned the tree beautifully. I also had them remove several trees that were either dead or damaged. I was very pleased with their work and will lhire them again.
