"Promised more than could be delivered - did an in-person estimate and quoted for two trees plus stump grinding, but when he came out, could only do one tree and no stump grinding. Left debris all around my house and on my roof, and completely destroyed my giant elephant ear planted against my house by carelessly tossing limbs off the roof. HOWEVER - the price was extremely fair - I am just stuck having to hire someone else to finish the job."

"The company was very professional for my landscape project. Lindsay designed my front and backyard and was very attentive to my needs. She got a large palm tree for the front of the property which makes a “statement”. I have had numerous neighbors inquire about who did my property. George (one of the managers) also made some great suggestions on lawn and patio install. Finally Keith helped design the patio, made sure gutters were in place for the pavers. Ideal Lawn Solutions is a top notch company in every way. They met all of our needs as homeowners."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally, homeowners do not need permission to cut down a tree on their own private property, but there are several exceptions where a permit may be required. You might need a permit if the tree is particularly large, old, or a protected species, such as a heritage tree. Trees located near public property or power lines can also be subject to special rules. Additionally, many local governments and homeowners associations (HOAs) have regulations controlling which trees can be removed to manage an area's appearance or prevent the spread of invasive species. To avoid hefty fines, it is crucial to check with your local government and HOA to determine if a permit is needed before you begin.

Once you confirm a tree is dead, you should remove it. Dead trees eventually fall, and larger trees in particular can cause damage to rooftops, fencing, flowers, and other objects. As we mentioned, letting decayed wood stay in your yard also invites risks to the surrounding landscaping and vegetation.

Transplanting a palm tree is a similar process except for a couple of important differences. First, their root ball doesn’t need to be as large as a “true” tree, which makes them a bit easier to dig up and move around. Second, they struggle more with taking root and staying upright in a new location, so it’s important to give them extra support when staking. 

Opt for a barefoot tree. Pros harvest barefoot trees when they’re dormant (leafless). They shake the dirt from the root ball and pack it in moist material. 

These trees can cost half as much as the trees at your local nursery, and you can buy them online—so there’s a much wider selection. Just make sure you keep your barefoot tree cool until you’re ready to plant it.

You can remove a small tree from your yard if there’s space for the tree to fall, you have the right tools and safety equipment, and you follow a clear plan of action. You’ll just want to follow the steps above carefully, and ideally, you will have experience doing similar tasks. If you have any doubts that you can do this project safely, though, you should hire a pro.
