"BOSS Tree Service did an amazing job at our property. Removed about 20 large trees and many other small ones. They also excavated and cleared up our front yard to finally have a lovely grass yard! Great people to work with."

"They were very thorough in a tree trimming project I hired them for originally. I then tried discussed with them that I was looking for a lawn maintenance service. I would be mowing myself but wanted someone to provide the maintenance, ferilization, soil conditioning and other basic services for the year. Their price was fair and the day I signed the contract, they showed up to take a soil sample and provide the first treatment. They have been nothing but polite on the phone and very responsive with email replies and updates when they complete any portion of the project. I recommend using them."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Some trees will bounce back just fine, and others will struggle and possibly die. Evergreens, for instance, have a very difficult time recovering after droughts and usually die after periods of extreme dryness. Usually, you’ll have to just wait and see—if the drought occurs in wintertime, it’s possible that your tree will recover during the gentler springtime.

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.

Deciduous shade trees (the type of trees whose leaves fall off in autumn) need to be pruned in late winter—between February and March. That’s because it’s easier to find and remove sick or dead branches when no leaves are present. And wounds close and heal faster in colder temperatures so pruning them at this time also makes them less prone to infection.

It could be anywhere from weeks to years for a dead tree to fall. A dead tree falls based on its weight, how it leans, the state of its roots, the state of decay, and what local windstorms are like, among other factors. Since it’s hard to predict the fall’s timing, it’s important to cut down a dead tree quickly and avoid any unpleasant surprises.

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.
