"Urban tree care, they came and knocked out three big and tall redwood trees located in my backyard. Heriberto (the tree climber and business owner) came with his crew and knocked all three of them out in a day. Urban tree care is by far the best tree service provider out there. I would highly recommend them to for any tree service or any estimates needed."

"If you’re searching for a reliable tree service to trim your redwood trees beautifully, I wholeheartedly recommend ExTREEme Tree Experts! Their five-star quality and commitment to excellence truly stands out. I consider myself fortunate to have found Danny and his dedicated crew. Just a week before, another tree service I had contracted with suddenly backed out in favor of a larger project, basically putting me on the back burner for another two weeks. I discovered ExTREEme Tree Experts through Angie’s List, and Danny quickly visited my home to offer a quote that was even more affordable than the initial company I had engaged. My redwood trees now look healthier and more vibrant, adding beauty to my yard. Additionally, he trimmed a leaning crêpe myrtle that was encroaching on my backyard fence, restoring its upright stance. Thank you, Danny for the excellent work. I will continue to use your services to ensure my trees remain stunning and healthy for many years to come."

"Elmer and his team of Fernandez Tree Service is very professional. They came out for site estimate within hours and had scheduled out within 2 days for us during peak season due to the storm. They were very capable, efficient, well staffed and equipped and managed. They were able to complete the job within 1 day - we had several big trees and dead oak trees on the slope full of rocks. They cleaned up everything and looked totally neat. Besides, their price is very reasonable and affordable. Highly recommend Fernandez Tree Service and definitely ask them to do our next tree service."

"The site assessment and quote were extremely easy and transparent due to a slick app that itemizes the tree removal by type of tree/trunk diameter, with photos, then automatically generates a quote. The crew showed up right on time and were done on schedule. Super happy with the work and would recommend to anybody looking for tree removal services in the East Bay!"

"It was a big job, the trees were probably over 30 ft tall and horribly overgrown and intertwined. They did a wonderful job and cleaned everything and replaced my statues leaving my yard emasculate. The price was what I expected and worth it. Very nice people, I will be calling them again for some more work next spring."

"Daniela was top notch. She made contact timely and estimate was reasonable. I could not be present, so she kept me in the loop via phone, text, and email. The estimate process was pleasant and professional. Daniela knew exactly what I needed and sent photos to clarify. The day of service, she called to announce when the crew arrived and started as well as updates and photos at time of completion. I couldn't be more satisfied. I will certainly use North Bay Tree Service again."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Using Epsom salt to kill a tree stump typically takes between six and 12 months. While this may seem like a long time, it is significantly faster than the natural decomposition process, which can take up to seven years. This method is a viable DIY option for stumps that do not pose an immediate hazard. If you need a faster solution, you can hire a professional for stump removal or grinding, though this may cause more damage to the surrounding ground.

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. 

If a disease has attacked and destroyed the roots, then the tree may fall over as soon as it has died or while part of it is still alive. Trees that die with their roots left in place tend to stay standing for much longer, but those roots will decay eventually, allowing gravity to do the rest.

A tree growing close to a house can pose several risks, but removal isn't always the only or best solution. Potential problems include roots growing into the foundation and causing structural cracks, branches damaging the roof or promoting moss growth, and debris clogging gutters, which can lead to water damage. Trees can also provide access for pests and encourage mold. However, a small, healthy tree may not be a problem, and for larger, established trees, strategic trimming can be a cheaper and more beneficial alternative to removal. It is generally recommended to take action for trees within 10 to 20 feet of your home, especially if they are unhealthy or encroaching. Your best bet is to consult a professional arborist who can assess the specific situation and provide expert advice.

Finding a reliable arborist starts with researching specialists in your area and checking their licensing and certifications. Use online resources like the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to conduct research on each company. Next, contact the arborist and ask the following questions to see whether they are the right fit for your project:

  • Do you handle or specialize in dealing with the issue I’m having?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Do you have any third-party certifications?

  • What equipment and strategies do you plan to use?
