"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."

"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."

"He contacted me quickly when I submitted my request at Angi. He asked me to send a picture of the stump I needed removed. He quoted me through ANGI at a price LESS than what it would cost to rent a stump grinder. He was done in 20 minutes and the area looked exactly how he found it minus the stump. He was timely, kept in contact throughout the day until he arrive and did an amazing, efficient job."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Palm trees will not regrow from a stump once the tree has been cut down. This type of tree is unique because the root and stump system will slowly decay after the tree is gone, unlike other species that can regrow. That’s why it’s preferable to remove dead or decaying palm tree stumps quickly as they can become an eyesore and don’t offer future growing potential.

You can use a felling ax to chop down a tree by following the same prep and steps as a chainsaw, but be prepared to use some muscle. For trees bigger than 7 inches in diameter, it can take some time and serious strength to cut down a tree using just an ax. 

Since overwatering can harm mature trees just as much as a lack of water, it’s important to know the signs of an overwatered tree. If your tree’s leaves are yellowing, wilting, or dropping leaves, it’s likely that you’re overwatering. Other common signs include rotting, fungi, soggy soil, soft or peeling bark, falling leaves, and brittle roots. 

If you realize that you’ve been overwatering your mature tree, stop watering and give the soil time to dry out. Then moving forward, increase time between watering sessions. 

It is possible to burn out a tree stump if it is dried out and in an area of your property with a large buffer. Drill holes in the stump and dig around the base so it burns more easily. Then, build a small campfire on top using kindling and firewood. You’ll need enough to keep the fire going for many hours to completely burn out the stump, especially if it’s large. 

Monitor the fire closely to ensure it doesn’t spread, and have a hose on hand if it starts to get out of control. When the fire is out, break apart the burned stump and dig out what’s left of it.  

If this sounds like a good option, learn more about how to burn a tree stump before attempting it, as it does come with risks.

A chainsaw is the best tool to cut down a tree, but you may also use a handsaw or ax. You may also want to use a lopper or pole saw to remove limbs before cutting down the tree. Wear chainsaw chaps and protective gear, including eyewear and earplugs if you use a chainsaw. Again, if you’re unsure about how to use this tool, this project may be one to skip.
