"Noah and crew were on time, super helpful at explaining what we should and shouldnâ t trim, left the yard clean, and where done when they said they would be. Our neighbors even appreciated their work and even hired them on site for another job! I will be using them again at another house and would highly recommend them."

"Colby’s Cactus Cowboys did a great job taking down 3 trees, trimming 2 trees, filling in a pond and placing and filling 2 large raised beds with soil. They worked efficiently and kept me informed on their progress. They were open to suggestions and provided knowledgeable advice. I would definitely hire them for any landscaping jobs in the future."

"I couldn’t be happier with the work done by Edge & Ivy! They completely transformed my yard and did it all for an amazing price that beat every other quote I received. The team was professional, efficient, and clearly knew exactly what they were doing. They showed up on time, communicated every step of the process, and left everything looking spotless! My yard looks better than it ever has, and I’ve already gotten compliments from neighbors. Highly recommend to anyone looking for reliable outdoor work without breaking the bank!"

"Chris was the first to get back to me, came to estimate yard cleanup- which was a substantial amount of work - within a day. He was able to communicate well and gave me a plan and schedule that worked best for us. He matched the price I had been quoted for delivery and installation of tress, shrubs and boulders - so we hired him to do that, alsoâ ¦ in a much more timely manner. Chris aims to please and we were pleased with his work, professionalism snd integrity. Highly recommend."

"Pikes Peak Tree Care provided exceptional service from start to finish. Cole arrived promptly to remove our two large cottonwood trees and did an outstanding job. He skillfully took down the trees, removed the stumps and all surface roots, and left the area spotless. The site looks fantastic, and we couldn't be happier with the service provided. We are beyond impressed and highly recommend their services!"

"Great work done in a timely and affordable manner. Appreciated that the arborist actually walked all the trees with me and explained why I shouldnâ t trim as aggressively for both the health of the tree and the look of the finished tree. They also offered additional landscaping that was a great price but mulch is crazy expensive and not in the budget this year."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

All of the tree root removal methods mentioned above are effective on any kind of root, whether it’s still growing or simply needs a gentle nudge to finish decomposing. The only difference is that larger roots tend to be harder to remove and may require multiple chemical treatments as well as manual labor to eradicate.

The best time to cut down a tree is during its dormant season, typically in winter or early spring, after all the leaves have fallen. Removing a tree during this period is advantageous for several reasons. Frozen ground helps secure the tree stump, protects the surrounding landscape from damage, and reduces the risk of the tree falling in an unintended direction. With the leaves gone, there is less risk of the tree's foliage getting tangled with other trees. Additionally, since this is often a slower season for tree services, you may be able to hire a professional at a lower rate. This dormant period is also the best time for tree trimming.

The best tool to cut trees is a chain saw. You can adjust your chain saw to the correct size based on the size of the branches, offering you the fastest and cleanest cut for medium- to large-sized trees. Depending on the type of chainsaw you use, you can cut through larger trees than you would with a more manual tool like an ax.

Tree borers are difficult to control and remove once they make a home in your tree. However, with patience and determination, some methods can slow the damage or even eliminate the pests. But, once the damage is too much for the tree to handle, the only solution becomes removing it. Talk to a tree specialist early for the best chance at saving your tree.

It can take anywhere from one month to a couple of years for tree roots to grow back in sewer lines. Tree roots can cause extreme havoc on your sewer lines, potentially cracking them and causing untreated wastewater to make its way into the groundwater. Have a landscaping pro remove trees and roots before installing your system, or call a pro to do it retroactively as soon as you can.
