"I needed invasive vines and poison ivy removed from areas around my property.Matt went over the whole job with me and explained the way he would do it and assured me about the safety of his method. He even noticed something that needed to be be treated on a magnolia in my yard. He arrived the next day and did the job quickly and thoroughly. Hi price was more than fair. The fact that he was a licensed arborist and had other certifications was doubly ressuring."

"My husband and I are extremely blessed and grateful for the opportunity to have met Rubin from A & R Tree Services and his Crew. We had them remove several trees from our property and the work they did was absolutely amazing. Rubin, along with his crew are very professional, respectful, and extremely hard working. They gave us a very reasonable estimate and the work they did was absolutely beyond what we expected. This is a â Greatâ company and would recommend them to anyone!"

"Excellent experience. The lead guy (Nathan Timberman) was very friendly, efficient, and helpful. On the day they did the work, the crew showed up on time, clearly know exactly what they were doing, and completed the job very quickly. Every member of the crew was also fluent in English, which nowadays is a big plus."

"I can't say enough positive things about this group. They were punctual, professional, and showed great attention to detail. And they offered very competitive pricing to boot! They worked all day on my yard, eliminating and removing 2 large oak trees, an extremely tall hickory tree, 9 pine trees, and a "widow-maker" deciduous tree in 100 degree heat. My kids and I tried to bring them food, drinks, chairs, etc... , but we had to be EXTREMELY forceful for them to accept our offering. I'm very tight-fisted with money, but I opted to tip over $400 because of my appreciation and respect for the work they performed."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Tree roots are hearty and complex systems, so they don’t die immediately after the rest of the tree is removed. If you leave the root system in place, it takes anywhere from two to seven years for it to run out of nutrients. It is worth noting, however, that the roots stop growing and expanding after cutting down the rest of the tree.

You can use a chainsaw, but it won’t remove the entire stump or root ball and is not a recommended method. It takes quite a bit of physical work to achieve and will likely dull or ruin your chainsaw. Instead, consider using salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, stump grinding, or burning to kill a tree stump. These methods allow you to kill a stump using minimal machinery and physical exertion.

A tree branch should start to form roots in about three months. It can take about a year for a tree branch to develop roots strong enough to go in the ground. For best results, start several branches because, no matter how closely you follow instructions, they won’t all form roots. Compost any that aren’t thriving.

An arborist specializes in tree care, performing tasks such as pruning, treating diseases, and removing hazardous trees. They also assess soil conditions, plant trees, and develop landscaping plans to ensure healthy growth. They also manage debris cleanup, inspect equipment, and record maintenance activities. Arborists often collaborate with landscapers and professional tree maintenance services, applying their specialized knowledge and problem-solving skills to maintain tree health and safety.

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.
