"Our 2 fan palms had grown so tall it was impossible to trim them ourselves as we had done in the past, so there was years of new growth and dead palm frons. One by one 4 workers arrived, each had a specific task. The first to arrive was the trimmer who climbed into the 3 story high trees to trim them. 2 men were on the ground stacking and picking up the ground and carrying them to the 4th man running the chipper. They were synchronized with their task. If any debris fell into our neighbors yard they picked that up. All of this was accomplished in 40 minutes. They left the yard picked up and clean and our trees beautiful!."

Customers say: True professional

"Angel Carrera and his crew were careful, professional and attentive to each one of my tree service directives. They serviced 30 Queen Palms and four very large Chinese Elms on our 1.3 acre hill property—at times using proper tree-climbing equipment, at times using two boom lifters. Their rates were quite reasonable. I definitely recommend LM Tree Service!"

"Angel and his team did a great job with removing a huge palm tree, walnut branches, and huge pine branches on our property. They were able to work around the house safely and took down the tree and branches without any damage. They were great to work with!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

You can use the formula mentioned earlier to calculate the depth of tree roots. Each inch of width of a tree trunk translates to six inches of depth within the root system. Large trees extend anywhere from 2 to 6 feet into the ground, with some magnificent specimens going even deeper.

A chainsaw is the best tool to cut down a tree, but you may also use a handsaw or ax. You may also want to use a lopper or pole saw to remove limbs before cutting down the tree. Wear chainsaw chaps and protective gear, including eyewear and earplugs if you use a chainsaw. Again, if you’re unsure about how to use this tool, this project may be one to skip.

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.

It takes anywhere from three to seven years for a stump to decompose on its own. This timeframe can depend on the kind of tree and your climate. The lower to the ground the stump is, the faster it rots. If you kill a tree stump with salt, boiling water, herbicide, light deprivation, or burning, the tree stump decomposes faster. 

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.
