Five massive Southern pines towered over the house my wife and I purchased more than a year ago. Being in hurricane alley, those trees had to go. I searched for local contractors on the Internet, only to find a bunch of entries buried in frustrating directories that gave only a phone number and an address, but no website. Only a couple of contractors' websites showed up relatively high in the search. I wanted to know more about the local companies: whether they were fully insured, how long they'd been in business, what kind of testimonials (if any) they had. That info would help me winnow the list to two or three that I'd call for an estimate.
