Had 3 huge trees removed from my house. All three were leaning over house. It went great. Adam is a great guy and knows his stuff. His crew is hard-working and professional. One of the climbers- Andy- did an incredible job. It was fun to watch! I would highly recommend these guys both for the quality of work and reasonable prices. ...read more

I had 3 trees removed – one of which was a 4 trunk hickory in an inconvenient spot close to the house/AC units/inside fenced backyard. Not only did Pegram’s do a great job removing the trees, debris, and stumps they made what could have been a stressful experience a breeze. Other companies couldn't even schedule a quote for almost 2 months - not good if you have a tree that might cause damage. ...read more

I can not speak more highly of Pegram Tree Service. They gave me a reasonable estimate and completed the job as planned (including going beyond the day of the job and removing additional trees). They have also done work for my daughter in the past and again did an amazing job. We would recommend them over and over again. Great service/quality/price! ...read more

I received the proof of insurance, worker's comp and liability promptly from the office as well. Definitely recommend Pegram Tree Service to anyone needing tree work done and will rehire for any future work. ...read more

CORRECTION ! My previous review should have been rated at a 5.0 not 1.0. Sorry for misconception. Pegram Tree Service trimmed four trees for me, two of which were massive oaks in great need of being thinned and shaped. Adam Pegram and his very experienced crew worked very efficiently and with great care when working on all my trees. They made sure there was no damage to my yard, house and landscaping during the whole process. They were extremely knowledgeable in what they were doing and did exactly what I wanted and as quoted. I was very impressed that the job was completed in a day and their clean up was complete. Lastly, their quote was extremely competitive and I would say even reasonable for the difficultly of the job. In this day and age it is gratifying to work with a company that actually does what it says it will do and takes such pride in its work. ...read more

Pegram removed a large sweetgum tree from my front yard. They gave me a great price compared to other tree services I solicited. My only complaint is that they did a fair amount of damage to my lawn and other landscaping during the removal. I was told that my other landscaping would be preserved during my consultation, but this was not the case. I suspect that the crew had to sacrifice some caution for the sake of speed. I was told that they would start first thing in the morning but they did not begin until after noon, and had to finish under artificial light after the sun went down. Otherwise, I am happy with the work and would use them again. ...read more

I was so impressed with this company and all the workers that were at my house to remove 4 massive trees! The owner is very personable and knowledgable and put us at ease with the tree removal process. They kept us informed every step of the way and went out of their way to protect our home, cars and the surroundings. They were timely and worked hard both days only stopping to take a 45 minute lunch! These guys worked super hard and cleaned up impeccably when finished! You cannot beat their service and the price was right! ...read more

Tree-killing insects like the Pine Beetle, the Emerald Ash Borer and the Spruce Budworm have become a major problem in North America. Every year hundreds of thousands of trees are killed by these pests. This means that every property owner who has trees or woods on his or her land needs to be on the look out for these pests. The only way to keep trees from these pests is to take aggressive action when they first appear. The first action a property owner needs to take is to learn which pests are active in his area. Some pests like the Pine Beetle are confined to a particular region. Others like the Emerald Ash Borer are spreading quickly over the country. To make matters worse many pests are coming into the US and Canada all the time. These unwelcome visitors can spread fast so homeowners have to be on the look out for them. A good first step in fighting the bugs is to find out which insects are active in your area. The US Forest Service, state and provincial forestry agencies and universities can tell you which bugs are around and how to control them. Other steps property owners can take to protect trees include: • Get a regular visit from a professional tree service. The employees of such a business are expert at spotting and controlling infestations. • Regularly inspect trees for signs of infestation. These include holes bored in bark and sap running from trees. • Cut down dead or dying trees as soon as you notice them. • Dispose of wood from infested trees as soon as possible. The longer it stays on your property the greater the risk the bugs will spread. • Don't cut or buy firewood from areas infested with tree-killing insects. • Spray or treat firewood from infected trees or areas with infestations with an insecticide when you bring it on your property. • Have your trees sprayed with insecticides as soon as you notice the signs of an infestation. ...read more

Trees have appeared in myths, legends and fairytales since the tradition of storytelling began. Though there are trees mentioned in hundreds of children's stories, some are more significant and memorable than others. Here are the top five most famous trees that have appeared in fiction. 1. The Magic Faraway Tree Author, Enid Blyton, is most famous for her well-loved children's stories about splendid adventures in the Enchanted Wood. This enchanted forest featured the Magical Faraway Tree. Colorful characters like Silkie the Fairy and Moonface inhabited the tree, which grew a strange selection of fruits at different times of the day. The heroes of the tale climbed to the top of the tree to visit strange lands and were involved in many memorable escapades. The Faraway Tree series consists of four books: The Enchanted Wood, The Magical Faraway Tree, The Folk Of The Faraway Tree and Up The Faraway Tree. 2. Spaghetti Trees The invention of Spaghetti Trees was an April Fools' Day joke, which was broadcast in 1957 on famously fact-based BBC show, Panorama. The hoax was highly successful, coming at a time when few people had eaten or heard of spaghetti. Many viewers believed the tall tale so much so that they contacted the television network to ask how to grow their own spaghetti tree. 3. Old Man Willow J.R.R Tolkein's Old Man Willow appears in the book The Fellowship of The Ring. Old Man Willow uses his magical abilities to entrap the protagonists of the story called the hobbits. Also known as the Great Willow, Old Man Willow has an evil nature and the sinister appearance of a gnarled grey willow tree. 4. Yggdrasil, The World Tree In Norse mythology, Yggdrasil is an enormous ash tree. Yggdrasil is generally translated to mean Odin's Horse. The great ash tree is the center of ancient Scandinavian cosmology acting as the solar plexus of the nine worlds surrounding it. This mysterious tree has been the muse of many creative types over the years, showing its influence in poetry, paintings and carvings. Famed mystery writer, Agatha Christie, even used the name Ygdrasil for a tree in her novel The Hollow. 5. Robin Hood's Tree Robin Hood is one of the most popular characters from English folk tales, who was said to rob from the rich and give to the poor. In some versions of the Robin Hood story, the outlaw and his group of bandits lived in Sherwood Forest near Nottingham, England. Tourists travelling in the area can visit an ancient oak tree known as the Major Oak, which locals say served as a hideout for Robin Hood and his followers. Even without the legends of Robin Hood, the Major Oak is rather special and has been named as one of the Great British Trees by Queen Elizabeth II. ...read more
