"Utterly satisfied with the professionalism in communication and expert service. Not only did they cut down three trees and prune two more, they ground the stumps and thoroughly cleaned up and hauled everything away at a price lower than it cost me for one tree from another company I went with before. I was so impressed I had them complete work at my mother’s home that had damaged trees hanging over her house from Hurricane Helene. I will definitely be calling them back in the future. If you want an awesome job at a more than reasonable price you can’t find anyone better."

With over 20 years of experience, I’ve spent a good portion of my life fixing, building, repairing, and occasionally staring at projects with my hands on my hips until inspiration strikes. I’m a handyman by trade, woodworker by passion, and problem-solver by habit.\n\nServices include general handyman work, custom furniture, furniture repair and restoration, woodworking projects, lawn care, and tackling the projects you’ve been meaning to get around to for the last six months (or six years).\n\nI take pride in quality work, honest communication, and doing things right the first time.\n\nAs an added bonus, services may also include unlicensed (and occasionally unsolicited) advice, a winning personality, and hairbrained answers to the deepest mysteries of the universe and the human condition.\n\nBecause sometimes you don’t need magic—you just need a guy with tools and questionable levels of confidence.

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Trees provide many benefits, including shade, habitat for local wildlife, and cleaner air, so it’s always a good idea to try an alternative strategy like crown reduction before you chop one down. But sometimes, cutting down a tree is the only option (like if it’s severely diseased). A licensed arborist can assess the tree and recommend the best course of action.

Unfortunately, palm tree stumps are one of the most difficult types to remove due to how their roots grow. Unlike other trees, palm tree roots grow horizontally and vertically. Palm tree roots grow as deep as three feet into the ground, although soil and growing conditions could mean they go as far as 50 inches into the earth. 

If you want to be able to repurpose the grass in the area where you removed a stump later, you’ll have to dig quite deep—and perhaps wide—to trim away all the roots.

Before you cut down a dead palm tree, try to revive it using the methods listed above. However, there are instances when it makes sense to remove a dead palm tree, including:

  • The heavily infected tree will infect nearby trees, bushes, and plants.

  • The palm’s roots are overtaking your yard, foundation, and sidewalk and causing structural damage.

  • The tree is unstable and a hazard to your property, your neighbor’s property, and pedestrians.

If you don’t cut down a dead, dying, or diseased tree, it can become a nesting place for pests like mosquitos, bees, beetles, wasps, fly larvae, and more. Some pests will live in the tree, while others will feed off the decaying wood. Unhealthy trees are also more likely to fall over, potentially injuring people and causing damage to your property.

The best way is to start controlling tree height long before it grows too large, via careful pruning through the years. But that’s not always possible. If a tree has become too high or too large, use selective pruning to remove the most troublesome branches, one by one, without topping the tree. Gently shaping a tree like this can, over time, correct problems. You can also find growth inhibitors to spray on a tree to stop it from growing too rapidly, but use these sparingly if at all.
