"Greg and crew were able to do my work on the same day that I spoke with him. They were amazing! Very kind and great to work with. I had 6 small stumps, they were done in 30 minutes, and did a great job with clean up and even used a blower to clean off my front porch. And the price was so reasonable. Iâ  ll absolutely be calling them again!"

"My husband and I hired GPS to paint the exterior and interior of our home. After seeing the spectacular work, we decided to have them re-stain our entire back deck and front porch. Phillip is a one-of-a-kind professional. He went above and beyond from day one. He actually cares about his customers and constantly stays in touch to make sure we are getting the best service possible. He made sure he was available at any time of the day for any question we had! LOVE this company and will recommend them to everyone!"

"Junior and his crew were awesome. Easy to work with, friendly, and did an excellent job removing my trees, clearing some brush, and stump grinding. I also appreciate how clean they left the yard after completing the work they did. They even came back to touch something up. Highly recommend!"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

If you aren’t sure what you’re doing, be very careful when cutting mature tree roots (roots larger than 2 inches). Root cutting and pruning can affect both a tree’s stability and its ability to nourish itself. Issues during root cutting can result in damage or injury. 

It’s recommended you call in a pro to help, unless it’s a very small tree and you aren’t worried about the prospect of losing the tree.

Usually, trees cannot grow back after their stump has been ground, but some very hearty types of trees can. For example, if you have a black locust or Redford pear, the grinding will need to go deep to prevent them from growing back. Ask your tree service or stump removal expert whether your tree can resprout after its stump is ground down.

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

There are a few things you should look for in a stump removal company to make sure you’ll be satisfied with the results:

  • Proper business licensing and insurance

  • History of positive reviews

  • Good rating with the Better Business Bureau

We also recommend asking any company you’re considering the following questions to help find the best value:

  • Will you remove the roots as well as the stump?

  • Will you haul away wood chips or large portions of the stump?

  • What method will you use to remove the stump?

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.
