Why is there such a price difference between tree service companies? 

3/2/2016

​The answer is simple; license, bond, insurance and workers compensation. Anyone can go around with a pickup truck and a chain saw and offer super low prices for tree service. If you have tree work done at your Biloxi or Ocean Springs home and the company you choose does not carry workers compensation and a worker gets hurt, you could be liable. Another problem is that lets say that the tree you want removed falls onto your home during the removal, the company won’t have insurance to cover it.
Being in the industry for so many years, we have heard all too many horror stories of people hiring out companies to do work for them and the company cuts down the tree in a way that damages the property or someone gets hurt.
On the flip side of that hiring a big company that does work all over the US is extremely expensive. They will of course be licensed, bonded and insured but their prices are extremely high. Mostly you are just paying for the name.
Out on a Limb Tree Service MS is the perfect in-between. We are fully licensed, bonded and insured. We carry workman’s compensation on every employee. We are also a local and family owned company. We know the trees in Oceans Springs, Biloxi and the Mississippi Gulf Coast. We have been serving this area for 23 years. We have a perfect safety rating and we do an excellent job and always offer affordable prices.

DIY Stump Removal - 4 Ways to (Not So Easily) Remove A Stump

11/2/2015

Do it yourself stump removal is a brave undertaking. Stumps are not only an eyesore, but they can be extremely difficult to remove without the use of a stump grinder. We recommend that before you take on your stump removal journey, you give us a call for a free stump grinding quote. We serve Biloxi, Gulfport, Ocean Springs, Pascagoula, Vancleave, Moss Point, and more. So, if you're in the area and you want your stump gone today - the easy way, give us a call!

So, you've decided to do it yourself eh?

Alright then. Roll up your sleeves and get ready for some work!

Here are a few ways you can try to remove a stump by yourself:

1. Chemicals - There is no such chemical that will rid your lawn of your stump. You can, however, use chemicals to eat at the wood, making it more porous and easier to burn. 

2. Fire - Before you go dumping gasoline on your stump and setting it ablaze, you should know that in most cases, fire is a very slow process for removing a stump. Stumps flare out when underground and the low oxygen environment can make it difficult to burn a stump out of the ground. If you're patient and willing to endure many fires over your stump - we suggest creating an oven over your stump and burning sections at a time. 

3. Accelerated Decomposition - If you have a considerable amount of patience, you may consider assisting nature in naturally decomposing your stump. This process will take years but it does work. Start by drilling some 1 inch holes in your stump and adding high nitrogen fertilizer, like cow manure. Insulate the area with a tarp or cover it with hay, or the like, and keep it damp. After the first year, use carbon based additives like sugar in place of manure. 

4. Get a Bigger Ax - Good ole' fashion labor will always do the trick. Hopefully, you had children approximately 10-18 years before you had your tree removed! You can dig your stump out with pick axes shovels and axes. We recommend digging around the stump and eliminating roots as you remove your stump. 

If you're starting to rethink your DIY stump removal, we don't blame you! Stump grinding is simply the most effective way to remove stumps. Our stump grinders can grind out even the toughest stumps in a matter of minutes. Give us a call for a free quote and get your stump out today!

Tree Service Biloxi - Ocean Springs | Why maintain your trees?

Why do I need Tree Service in Ocean Springs MS or Tee Service in Biloxi MS?

We want our clients to be educated about the value of tree service and some of the pitfalls that many face as a result of not properly trimming trees, or improper tree trimming techniques. There are many benefits of keeping your trees trimmed and well kept. For instance, beautiful trees and a tree landscape that fits your home will give your home a greater curb appeal and can increase the value of your home by up to 20%. Trees increase shade that will keep your home and yard cooler in the summer heat, give you better air quality and studies show that neighborhoods with more trees are associated with lower crime rates. Hiring a reputable tree service that is experienced, licensed, bonded and insured to take care of these trees is imperative.

Trees add an incredible amount of value to your property, however if not properly cared for they can quickly become a liability. Each year thousands of trees fall and cause damage to homes and businesses. Why do branches fall in the first place? Well, that's a good question! Branches and limbs usually fall during a storm because they were either unhealthy, or overloaded and waiting to break. Many trees look extremely healthy on the outside but could be rotting or even hollow on the inside. In fact, this is a lot more common that one would think. You can easily tell when a tree's branches have become overloaded as they look as if they are sagging, almost sad with the amount of weight they have been left to carry! When the time comes, the branches eventually give way to the stresses of high wind, or another falling branch. 


The first goal of a homeowner should be to properly care for and maintain trees to avoid critical failures. However, even the best kept trees can give way to the major storms here in the Gulf. When that happens, having a professional tree service company help you remove any fallen trees or branches is a must. During the removal of a tree there are many things that can go wrong. This is definitely something that you want to leave up to a company that has years of experience, is licensed, bonded and insured and has top of the line equipment to get the job done right. There are ways to even further strengthen your tree through bracing and cabling. You can read more about that here.
