"Organic Enlightenment is definitely the company you want to reach out to for all of your tree servicing needs, They have the equipment for every job. These guys are so professional and hard-working. They were here on one of the hottest days of the year and they never stopped. The owner checked all of my trees carefully and planned his work with an eye for symmetry and design. One of the trees was the first tree I ever learned to climb as a kid, and it still holds lots of sentimental value for me. I didn't want to lose a lot of shade, and it turned out so much better than I had hoped. All of the branches over the house were cut and cleared, leaving plenty of shade to cool the house. I love driving home now and seeing my trees as I come down the street, they look beautiful! And clean-up? Life they were never even here! My yard was spotless! I have never been more pleased with a contractor and would certainly use them again and recommend them highly!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

In most cases, your neighbor is responsible for roots from their tree that cause damage to your property. If your pavement, the foundation of your home, or a fence is damaged by roots from a neighbor’s tree, you likely will have legal recourse for financial relief. While it’s better to notify your neighbor of any problems you notice as soon as they arise to avoid costly damage, there are some instances where filing a civil suit is your only recourse. Your homeowner’s insurance company might wish to do so on your behalf if you file a claim.

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.

Local tree removal prices range from $200 to $2,000 overall, but vary depending on:

  • Local cost of labor and supplies

  • Accessibility of the tree

  • Local laws regarding who is allowed to remove the tree

  • The species of the tree (softer woods are often easier to remove)

  • Local seasonal discounts for the off-season

Any cutting of tree roots can hurt or kill a tree, which is why it's recommended you don’t do it unless the roots are damaging or invasive on a nearby structure like your home. You should never cut more than 15 percent of above-ground tree roots at one time. If you have any questions about cutting tree roots, contact your local arborist.

The best tools for tree removal include a chainsaw for large trees, an ax for notching and cutting down small trees, and a wedge to help control the direction a tree falls in. A hatchet can be useful for very small trees, but won’t be effective for medium to large trees.
