"I was mostly just confused throughout the process. I had two business lined up for estimates on the job I needed done. This one showed up first. The estimate went great. The guy who came out for the estimate said he was an arborist so he was able to give me an opinion on the overall health of the tree which was nice because it is dangerously close to my house. Then I was going to wait until I got my second estimate, but the guy told me that they usually get a deposit before a job so if I did not give him the deposit today he would have to come back out to get it. I decided to just give him the 10% deposit. The other estimate I got ended up being more expensive anyway (though as you will see later that might be because the second company had a better understanding of what I wanted). I was told that the boss would call me to set up the date the team would come out and cut the branches. I never received a call, or at least if I was called there was no voicemail left. I do not answer numbers I do not recognize so if I do not see a voicemail I assume it was a spam call. Then one day I look out my kitchen window and there are people in my yard. I did not know they would be coming, but they were here and I wanted the limb hanging over my house cut back. Luckily I had enough money on me to pay them for the job, so I went ahead and had them work. This was the part I ended up confused on. I am not sure if I was not clear enough with the guy who did the estimate, or the guy leading the team who did the job, but I thought I was paying to have the limb cut back so that it was not over the house. What they did was cut all the dead branches off the limb and take a lot of weight off the limb. They did assure me that the tree would be safe and that it was healthy. I just thought the plan was different. They did a great job of cleaning my path afterward. They blew all the trimmings off my path, and ended up having to come back the next day to put the branches through the woodchipper. They even ended up leaving me the big pieces of wood when I asked so I have a nice little pile of wood now. The negative here is that anything that the woodchipper did not throw directly into their truck was swept up and put in my trash can, which had just been emptied the day before. So I had to go almost a whole week with my trash can being 70 percent full of tree trimmings, because out here where I live recology only offers the Grey trash can. I do not have the green waste or blue can. They did a good job of making sure the limb is trimmed and safe for the winter, but I am still going to save money and end up going to the other more expensive company that was going to come put with a crane to help remove the rest of the limb. So a summary: the positives were that they did a good job of cleaning my yard, and did the job quickly. The negatives were that I was not told they were coming, I wish they had dumped my trimmings somewhere else, and I feel we had a miscommunication on what the job was supposed to be (that might have been my fault I am not always good at explaining myself)."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

If you aren’t sure what you’re doing, be very careful when cutting mature tree roots (roots larger than 2 inches). Root cutting and pruning can affect both a tree’s stability and its ability to nourish itself. Issues during root cutting can result in damage or injury. 

It’s recommended you call in a pro to help, unless it’s a very small tree and you aren’t worried about the prospect of losing the tree.

Tree experts don’t advise against digging through tree roots, but instead encourage caution and consultation with a local arborist to make sure you don’t damage the tree’s structure or interrupt its water or nutrient intake. An arborist can recommend specific practices when digging and help prune the roots or dig a trench for utilities with a tool that can remove soil without touching the tree’s roots.

Whether tree roots will continue to grow after a tree has been cut down depends on the species. Some tree roots will eventually die because they can no longer get nutrients through photosynthesis. However, other species that reproduce through root sprouts can continue to grow and produce new sprouts for seven years or more. For example, the roots of elms, ficus, and willows tend to regrow aggressively, while the roots of pines, oaks, and maples will typically die. To determine if a root system is still active, look for new sprouts on the old trunk, stump, or any exposed roots.

Pruning trees during the summer can be a bad idea because the new growth will take place during the hottest months of the year, which can stress your tree out. Similarly, pruning during the early fall can be a bad idea, too, because you’d be stimulating new growth when most trees are aiming to go dormant. 

Pruning recommendations will vary by the type of tree, but generally, waiting until winter to prune your trees is a good idea.

Unfortunately, if you cut the top off a palm tree, it will die. Instead of budding or branching out, the top begins to slowly rot. That's why having a professional tree trimming at least twice a year is a good idea. If you don’t have experience with trimming your palm tree, you might accidentally cut the top off, leaving a dead and rotting tree in your wake.
