"I hired Dan to remove several trees as well as clean the gutters and moss off of a roof on a tenants house. Dan went above and beyond. I had 3 other companies promise to come out and 1 even shook hands and said they would be out and never showed up. I was in a huge bind because the homeowners insurance was threatening to drop insurance. I found Dan through our community forum. Dynamic Landscapes! He came out gave a more than reasonable price. He came the very next day and did the entire job. He cleaned the yard and everything was left meticulous. I was so impressed by his work and just him in general... we have 5 homes. I would never even ask anyone else or consider another company. Dan is top notch. He is my go to guy now. I have shared all of his info on community forums because he is trust worthy and he truly cares about making sure you are happy with the job. He even followed up after the job to make sure we were happy and if there was anything we had an issue with he would have come right out. You can trust Dan's word. He is absolutely ð ¯ the best hands down. I think I've thanked him about 3 times now."

"They were great ! First-rate experience, start to finish. They removed a number of dead trees from my back yard--which has no vehicular access from the front. The work was expertly done, from angling the tree falls to maximize the limited space; to disposing of the wood; to cleaning up after themselves. I would recommend AATC to anyone who needed arborist services without reservation."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you can prune a palm tree with a chainsaw, but a chainsaw is overkill for a job like this. You risk damaging the tree if you make a bad cut. More commonly, you’ll need pruning shears or a serrated knife to trim a palm tree, or you can use a specialized pruning saw instead of a chainsaw.

It’s possible, although a lot depends on the cause of damage and what steps you take. If the remaining parts of the maple tree are alive and not under attack by disease or pests, they can often be saved even if large portions of the maple tree have died. Frequent watering, careful pruning, mulch, and any recommended fungicides or insecticides can all help with survival.

No, you cannot throw branches from your neighbor’s tree back into their yard, nor can you discard leaves or other plant matter that originated from their yard back over there if it happens to land in your yard. You are responsible for cleaning up plant matter that made its way into your yard.

In the short term, you’ll have a lot of fallen trees to deal with. Tree removal services costs typically start at $200 per tree and increase based on species and size. Then, you’ll have to deal with the loss of trees: That means a loss of shade and a greater risk of rain runoff and erosion. Also, you’ll miss out on the health and aesthetic benefits of having trees on your property, which could even affect the resale value of your home.

That being said, cutting down a tree it’s not always a bad idea. Trees growing too close to rooftops can present fire hazards or debris problems. You may need to remove diseased or dying trees to prevent future issues.

Palm tree stumps can take as long as seven to ten years to rot naturally. Whereas some tree stumps rot within a year, palm trees tend to last longer due to their deep root networks. Chemical rotting (described above) can help speed the process up so your palm tree stumps rot in under two months.
