"They safely removed a 60'ft oak tree that was diseased missing bark in large areas and efforts to revive it after the Camp Fire 5+ years ago didn't work. All Green Tree service downed by sectioning and cleaning branches with that chipper/grinder. They kept their safety promise, grinded both stumps below ground level and did a fine job for a good price. Thank You, Michael C. 2-15-24, (530)246-1755..."

"I had 4 very large oaks trimmed in a hard to reach area. They had industrial equipment and a 4 man team. Phenomenal, professional job. Safely removed limbs and had me inspect as they went to make sure they were cutting far enough for my liking. They raked, cleaned up piles and mulched branches. Left my house, nice and neat with a new "haircut". Couldnt be more impressed with their service. Bonus, my neighbor saw their work, loved it and they stayed later trimming her trees. They were eager and happy to work. They were tree perfectionist! Great job guys! Kyle"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

While there is a lot of debate about whether boiling water is strong enough to kill tree roots, it is not best to remove the roots from large, old trees. You may be able to weaken young roots enough to remove them manually, but boiling water will likely not do the trick for large root systems.

Palm trees are unique in that their roots don't grow straight down; they grow horizontally. Typically, palm tree roots go down between 12 and 36 inches deep. The roots grow far and wide from the base of the palm tree to absorb as much water and soil nutrients as possible. In addition, the horizontal roots are also very strong—keeping palm trees stable and helping them sway during storms.

Depending on the severity of the damage, a tree might continue healing for years after a split or a break. Saplings can usually bounce back in the spring in one or two seasons, but larger trees might take a few years to regain their former strength. If your tree is showing strong growth and is not dropping limbs, you can consider it healed after the first two seasons.

Once you confirm a tree is dead, you should remove it. Dead trees eventually fall, and larger trees in particular can cause damage to rooftops, fencing, flowers, and other objects. As we mentioned, letting decayed wood stay in your yard also invites risks to the surrounding landscaping and vegetation.

In most cases, you should not use a pruning seal on trees after trimming. Applying a sealant can interfere with the tree's natural healing process, and it does not guarantee protection from pathogens. Instead of sealing the cut, the best practice is to support the tree's natural recovery by providing it with plenty of water and a dormant-style fertilizer. However, there are exceptions. Pruning seals may be recommended for very vulnerable species, like elm trees, in areas where dangerous diseases such as Dutch elm disease are prevalent. In these specific situations, the protection offered by a sealant can outweigh its downsides. For advice tailored to your situation, especially after cutting large branches, it is best to consult a local tree trimming professional.
