"Isaac Ayala is amazing, along with his tree trimming helpers. I submitted a request online for tree trimming quotes on April 1 at 11 a.m. I had no sooner submitted an online request for a quote when Isaac called me and we set an appointment for 3 pm that day to meet to look at 5 large (70') cottonwoods that needed serious trimming at my daughter's house outside Rifle. Of course, Isaac arrived a half-hour early for our appointment. Isaac said he was between jobs for a day or 2 and gave me what I thought was a fair price for trimming the tall cottonwoods. Isaac wanted to do the trimming on April 2. He showed up at my daughter's ranch and did a fantastic job over a 6-hour period trimming tall cottonwoods. Our agreed-upon price only included dropping the wood and not having it chipped or hauled away. To shorten this story, Isaac's 2 helpers ended up picking up all the logs and branches and tossing them into a nearby gully. I hoped I tipped the 2 ground guys enough!! The crew picked up all the branches, raked, and basically left the land in the same condition as before starting. I asked Isaac what outdoor tree/landscape/sprinkler/concrete/masonry work that he and his associates could NOT provide. He said, "We do it all." And, I believe him. He is that good Dr. Kirk Beattie Rifle, CO"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Carefully pruning small roots no thicker than three inches in diameter won’t harm the tree. However, cutting larger roots may impact the tree's stability and nutrient absorption. It's advisable to consult an arborist or tree care professional to evaluate the root's size, the tree's health, and the potential impact of cutting. Proper tree pruning techniques and timing can minimize damage, but larger root removal may necessitate expert guidance to avoid compromising the tree's overall health and stability.

It is good to spray water on a Christmas tree to help keep the needles hydrated. Spraying a Christmas tree with water prevents dryness, stops needles from falling off, and reduces the risk of fire.

There are several methods to hollow out a tree stump, and the best one depends on your tools, experience, and priorities. Common methods include using a chisel and hammer, a chainsaw, or burning.

  • Chisel and Hammer: This is often considered the easiest approach for those with limited tools or experience, though it is the most time-consuming.

  • Chainsaw: Using a chainsaw is the fastest method, but it comes with significant safety risks, especially for inexperienced users.

  • Burning: This can be an effective method, but it is not recommended unless you can first drill holes into the stump. Without holes, the stump will be difficult to light and may not burn completely through.

A power drill with at least a ⅜-inch diameter bit can make the job quicker and easier, regardless of the primary method. While you can use a chisel or chainsaw without a drill, it will require more time and effort. Always wear protective goggles and thick gloves, as splinters are an inevitable risk.

You can trim just one side of the tree, especially when that side is growing near something like a power line or a home. Pros will carefully trim the tree back until it is safe from that structure. While this is common, it also needs to be done with the utmost care, as pruning or trimming away at one side of the tree may make it structurally unsound. This instance is yet another where hiring a pro is wise, especially if power lines are involved.

Planting trees far enough from your foundation will protect your home from root damage, but if you’re dealing with existing trees, you can still guard against roots. Root barriers form a physical boundary that will prevent roots from encroaching on your foundation and can help save you from expensive foundation repair costs.
