"Juan called me shortly after posting. He said he could come over within an hour to look at the job and he was prompt. He quoted me a fair price and said he’d be over at noon the following day. He and his team were prompt. They had to use hand tools to remove the weeds due to a follow up project in a couple of weeks. The team did a great job of cleaning up the surrounding area. I would definitely hire them again."

"Unbelievably efficient and professional. I was beyond impressed by how well they sculptured my small grove of 32 eucalyptus trees. After receiving an outrageous quote from a well known large tree firm, I sought options from Angie's List. Green Canyon outbid all and the price versus quality of work was outstanding!"

"Gutierrez Tree Service is a professional business! Based on our experience of trimming 4 Queen Palms, we give them a thumbs up; this is a legitimate company, not some guys dropping business cards around the neighborhood; they make a statement as soon as they show up to your house with their work truck - it lets you know you hired the right crew; licensed and bonded; punctual; well prepared to provide you with a service for a fair price; courteous; clean and knowledgeable. We had 3 different estimates done for the job, but after meeting Martin we were impressed with his professionalism! We recommend this company and will be calling on them again in the future! Great job guys!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Aside from removing dead or diseased branches, you should prune your trees somewhere between every one and three years. Some people—particularly commercial farmers—prune their apple trees yearly to produce higher yields. This is the best way to promote tree health. That said, the average homeowner can get away with hard-pruning their mature apple tree every other year or every three years. 

Professionals use assessments, strategic cuts, specialized equipment, and safety measures to ensure healthy growth or the safe removal of trees or shrubs.

There are a few things you should look for in a stump removal company to make sure you’ll be satisfied with the results:

  • Proper business licensing and insurance

  • History of positive reviews

  • Good rating with the Better Business Bureau

We also recommend asking any company you’re considering the following questions to help find the best value:

  • Will you remove the roots as well as the stump?

  • Will you haul away wood chips or large portions of the stump?

  • What method will you use to remove the stump?

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.

Tree roots are hearty and complex systems, so they don’t die immediately after the rest of the tree is removed. If you leave the root system in place, it takes anywhere from two to seven years for it to run out of nutrients. It is worth noting, however, that the roots stop growing and expanding after cutting down the rest of the tree.
