"If you ever need a tree crew, call Daniel Hovarter Tree Service. Seriously, I’ve never seen anything like it. My neighbors brought out lawn chairs and watched them the whole morning! It was a Cirque du Soleil performance, but in my pine trees. They took down two 80-foot giants, chipped all the branches, and hauled away the trunks, all in about five hours. It was amazing to watch how expertly and quickly they worked. I’ve hired other companies before (Mountain Enterprises did a good job), but Daniel’s crew is on another level. The way they moved through the trees was pure mastery. When the show wrapped in the afternoon, the area where they were working was spotless. If you want the job done safely, efficiently, and with artistry, these are the folks to call. I’m telling everyone. They have my highest recommendation!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Although many tree roots will continue to grow after the tree has been cut, there are a handful of exceptions to this rule. While species like elms, ficus, and willows have roots that will regrow with a vengeance, pine, oak, and maple roots will die when they’re cut down. If you’re not sure what kind of tree roots you’re dealing with, there’s a simple way to find out. New sprouts on old trunks, stumps, or exposed roots are a sign that the root system is still hard at work.

Unfortunately, no: Homeowners’ insurance won’t cover the removal of a tree before it falls, no matter how dead or precariously positioned it is. Homeowners’ insurance usually will only apply when a tree has fallen and caused property damage.

The ideal depth of a tree notch depends on the tree, but it should usually be between 20% and 25% of the tree’s depth. However, if the tree is leaning towards the direction of the notch, it can be cut more shallowly—at as little as 10% of the depth. When the tree is leaning away from the direction it needs to be felled, you can cut deeper, closer to 30%.

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.

Costs range from $500 to $5,000 per tree, depending on size, location, and accessibility.
