Along the way he provides suggestions & ideas of what my thoughts for Cutting Back, Pulling out, Trimming of Overgrown Damaged by our Frost & Cold.

"Just had my trees trimmed by Jamail at I Cut Trees. He did a fantastic job. Reasonable, on time, professional and cleaned up beautifully. The best part my trees look fantastic and the old growth was cleaned to allow the trees to flourish! If you need work done give him a call!"

"I previously hired a company to grind a stump in my backyard, but the job was left incomplete and not to my satisfaction. CT Stump Grinder took care of the rest and made sure the stump was completely removed as well as the roots that were above-ground creating an uneven surface. They were professional and courteous and I would hire them again."

"The crew did a fantastic job taking 3 trees down and cleaning the area so well, you couldn't tell that trees had been cut. All debris removed and area raked. They were polite and did the job quickly while I was at an appointment away from home. I returned to the job done and a clean yard. I had asked for two trunks to be cut so I could make a seat for myself and they were cut perfectly so I could put a piece of wood on them. Thanks guys! I recommend Ethan and his crew to anyone wanting a great job done , a good value and knowledgeable workers."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

If you don’t trim your palm trees, you can expect several negative outcomes, including:

  • Unhealthy palm trees attract pests, diseases, and fungi 

  • Dead falling fronds can cause severe injury or damage to your home, pedestrians, or cars

  • Dead palm branches are flammable and can catch fire, especially during a lightning storm

Only trim palm trees as needed, which is usually about once per year. However, don't stick to that schedule if the palm tree doesn't need it. Avoid trimming palm trees when possible. It’s best to trim palm trees only when you notice a buildup of dead fronds. That said, leave the brown fronds during the dormant season because this organic matter helps protect the tree from the cooler weather.

You can use herbicides to prevent roots from growing without killing the tree itself, however they must be used with caution. Systemic herbicides are absorbed by the root and can kill off problematic roots. However, herbicides can sometimes negatively impact nearby plants, so the solution is best used sparingly.

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.

It takes anywhere from three to seven years for a stump to decompose on its own. This timeframe can depend on the kind of tree and your climate. The lower to the ground the stump is, the faster it rots. If you kill a tree stump with salt, boiling water, herbicide, light deprivation, or burning, the tree stump decomposes faster.
