Hello my name is Kyle Lawrence Byrne and I recently started my own tree service company with my partner Kyle Corbetta and Lisa LeBlanc. We have only been up and running since October 1st, but I have been in this line of work for a little over a year and got trained by a well educated man that studied in Agricultural Health and growth in the environment of all tree life. So with that being said me and my partner are well educated in all trimming, removal and caring for your trees needs. Now if you have any tree work that is standard or hazardous please give us a call for a free estimate and I can guarantee that we can give you the Professionalism, work experienced and customer care as every other company but at a better price to fit your needs because "it's not about the money its about helping people out at a reasonable price and leave you satisfied with the great quality of work to improve your home or land." Thanks for taking the time to read this and hope to be hearing from you when the time comes! \n Sincerely, Kyle Byrne & Kyle Corbetta

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Rock salt or Epsom salt can damage and kill tree roots over several weeks and can even assist in removing the tree's stump. However, you need to drill holes or cut into the stump and surface tree roots to inject them properly with the salt. Repeat the process every two weeks until the roots visibly rot away.

Pruning is an effective way to prevent a diseased branch from infecting the rest of the tree. If the infection isn’t caught early enough and the pathogen has spread to the trunk or the majority of the branches though, it is too late to prune off the affected areas and you’ll likely need to remove the tree.

We don’t recommend DIY tree trimming for a few different reasons. First, the tools required to trim a tree can be costly, up to $1,100 or more, for the ladders and specialized saws needed. 

Safety is another concern, especially when working with more mature trees. As a guideline, you should only DIY tree trimming when branches are less than two inches in diameter. Any more, and the safety risk becomes too high, which could lead to catastrophe. For this job, it’s safest to let a tree-trimming professional assess the work needed.

Yes, cutting a tree's roots can cause it to fall, particularly if major support roots are severed. In extreme cases, trimming roots can affect the tree's structure and stability. Many crucial roots are located just below the soil's surface. If you make severe cuts to roots more than 2 inches in diameter, you risk impacting the tree's water flow and its ability to withstand severe winds or storms. Even cutting roots less than half an inch in diameter under or outside the tree's canopy can cut off its water supply, causing it to decline, die, and eventually topple.

A standard tree removal doesn’t include stump grinding. If you want your contractor to remove your tree and grind the stump, you must pay an extra charge. That said, you’ll likely save on the cost of stand-alone service—especially if it’s a small tree and they can finish both jobs in a single trip.
