"Contact called for stump removal which wasn't completed as the small stump grinder broke. Took several months and multiple minders to get job completed.  The arborist was really good, knowledgeable and professional. I would recommend her work."

We are a fully licensed and insured Tree Service company who has been working on the Monterey Penninsula for over 25 years. We were previously known by another name, so Integri-Tree was first licensed in 2019. \nWe are a full service tree service company, with all the equipment and skill necessary to complete your job, remove all materials, and clean up your property prior to departure. Ideally you would never know we were there; except that the trees look amazing. We are specialized in Oak trimming, and continue to learn from local professors and arborists about the special needs of Monterey Coastal trees. We would always rather trim and try to rejuvenate a tree rather than cut it down. If removal is necessary; we can help you apply for the proper permits and plan the space, whether re-planting is desired or a new landscaping design. We also work with local businesses to bring their expertise for this phase of your property’s landscape design. \nWe look forward to working together.

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can prune a palm tree with a chainsaw, but a chainsaw is overkill for a job like this. You risk damaging the tree if you make a bad cut. More commonly, you’ll need pruning shears or a serrated knife to trim a palm tree, or you can use a specialized pruning saw instead of a chainsaw.

Trees naturally want to grow upward, so one may straighten all by itself, though this only comes into play when a tree is leaning just a small amount. For trees growing into an awkward position or those leaning heavily in one direction, the above steps are necessary to ensure the tree gets back on the right path. This also holds true for trees planted in a spot with unstable soil.

Unfortunately, palm tree stumps are one of the most difficult types to remove due to how their roots grow. Unlike other trees, palm tree roots grow horizontally and vertically. Palm tree roots grow as deep as three feet into the ground, although soil and growing conditions could mean they go as far as 50 inches into the earth. 

If you want to be able to repurpose the grass in the area where you removed a stump later, you’ll have to dig quite deep—and perhaps wide—to trim away all the roots.

The ideal depth of a tree notch depends on the tree, but it should usually be between 20% and 25% of the tree’s depth. However, if the tree is leaning towards the direction of the notch, it can be cut more shallowly—at as little as 10% of the depth. When the tree is leaning away from the direction it needs to be felled, you can cut deeper, closer to 30%.

Though summer is not ideal, you can do some light pruning during this time of year. Just make sure it’s not excessive. Vigorous pruning will stress the tree and impact next year’s growth. Generally, August to September are the best summer-pruning months, particularly for fruit trees.
