"An old tree was set on fire and was put out by the fire department. Now the tree was a hazard. Called Bills Tree Service. The owner came out that same afternoon and by 10 a.m. the next day, the entire tree was cut down and all wood, bark and sawdust was cleaned up. Fantastic crew and excellent service. Highly recommend this company.."

"Pros: Price, professionalism, insurance, great cleanup. Cons: None. Needed a tree removed that was directly between the rear of my house and shed. I also requested to have a nearby limb on an adjacent tree trimmed back. Decided I would get 5 quotes prior to making my decision on service provider. Deciding factors for me: insurance, price. Westbrook came in with the best price and speedy service - I asked when they could be here, and they said "tomorrow." Westbrook employees operated responsibly and professionally when on my property. Services were completed within roughly 4 hours of start time, and the cleanup was impressive. My wife commented that the patio area around where the tree was taken down was actually cleaner than it was prior to tree removal. Great job guys!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

You can hire a professional arborist or tree removal service to cut down a tree to ensure safety, prevent property damage, and comply with all the local regulations. It’s highly advisable to always hire a professional, as tree removal can be extremely dangerous, especially for large or damaged trees. Certified arborists or tree removal experts have the proper equipment, training, and insurance to do the job safely and efficiently. They can also handle cleanup, stump removal, and obtaining the necessary permits.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

The speed of your tree root removal process depends on a few different factors, including the size and type of tree. However, the fastest method of killing tree roots is applying chemical herbicide, which starts working quickly and efficiently. But this removal method has its drawbacks, such as having a negative effect on the surrounding vegetation and landscaping. Other options like rock salt and stump grinding work relatively quickly and cause less damage to your yard.

Absolutely. These steps are significantly easier, too, especially when it comes to preserving the root ball and moving the palm tree. However, you will want to make sure the tree has plenty of fertilizer to establish itself and start growing. Supports may also be more important, as it can take extra time for a potted palm to spread out its roots. If you are transferring a palm to another pot, you’ll want to move up a size or two to a larger pot. Make sure the pot has excellent drainage to keep the palm from getting waterlogged.

Transporting a fully-grown tree requires heavy equipment, typically specialized for the task. A tree spade is a truck-mounted tool that removes the tree from the ground in one location, transports it, and places it in a new hole in a new location. A combination of mechanized shovels and lifts is necessary to move very large trees, and the exact tools often depend on location and the surrounding area.
