"If your project is on a schedule this company responds. A very polite young man called back within a couple of hours, set up the survey, made the deal with a hand shake, and two days later the crew handled all of the work. The crew arrived and got right to business, each of them knew their part and worked together very well. My project required several large trees to be removed, as well as the stumps. They came equipped, removed everything, and cleaned up after themselves. Highly recommended and respected by me."

"The crew that came to trim our tree was very efficient. We needed a tree trimming company that would climb our tree to trim certain branches. We did not have room for heavy equipment and it was hard to find what we were looking for in a tree service. Down Home Quality Tree Service sent out a crew that had an excellent employee who climbed our tree and knew how to use ropes and leverage to cut and lower huge heavy limbs. The employee on the ground knew just what to do to help the climber lower the limbs. There was a third employee who helped by carrying the limbs out to the trailer after the limbs were cut in smaller sections. They went above and beyond! When the crew left my yard it looked as if no one had been working back there, but the two trees that were trimmed looked fantastic! Quick, safe, efficient and neat. I would definitely use and recommend Down Home Quality Tree Service, again."

"I could not say enough great things about Mitchell and Whistle Punk Worx tree service! they came out and trimmed all of our trees in preparation for the upcoming hurricane & storm season, and their work was absolutely outstanding. From start to finish, the crew was professional, efficient, and CLEARLY EXPERIEENCED. What impressed me was how hard they worked - their equipment and chainsaws ran nonstop the entire day, and they never slowed down. It was clear they were dedicated to getting the job done right and safely. Mitchell did a thorough job trimming and shaping the trees, leaving everything looking clean, neat, and much safer for the season. The clean up afterword's looked as if it had was hollowed ground which made a huge difference. If your looking for a reliable, hardworking tree service that takes pride in their work, I would highly recommended Whistle Punk Tree Worx !!! I will have them back for other properties and will be my go to tree service."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Palm trees are unique in that their roots don't grow straight down; they grow horizontally. Typically, palm tree roots go down between 12 and 36 inches deep. The roots grow far and wide from the base of the palm tree to absorb as much water and soil nutrients as possible. In addition, the horizontal roots are also very strong—keeping palm trees stable and helping them sway during storms.

The safest way to cut down a tree is to make sure you’re completely prepared and have done all the necessary safety checks, including double-checking your equipment is in good working order, you have plenty of clearance to fell the tree, you’re wearing all the safety gear, and you have a partner to help you (who should also be wearing safety gear). 

Unless there’s some sort of rule in your community’s homeowners’ association that requires you to remove a stump, there’s no law that says you have to take it out. If you’re not wedded to the idea of removing it, there are plenty of ways to get creative with this tree remnant. Using the stump as the medium for a wood carving or turning it into a planter are just two examples of ways to repurpose a tree stump.

If you want to take your tree-planting hobby beyond your outdoor space, here are a few great ways to do it:

  • Encourage your neighbors to participate in the Arbor Day Foundation’s Tree City USA program, which has a four-step framework that helps communities grow and maintain their own tree cover.

  • Support businesses that plant trees. 

  • Lobby your local government to plant more trees around your community.

  • Donate to a tree-planting charity.

Since each tree is different, it’s impossible to say how long a dead tree can remain on your property. While it could be days, months, or even years, it’s highly likely that, at some point, the tree will fall. In the meantime, dying or dead trees can become a haven for pests, so it’s best to have them removed sooner rather than later.
