Founder and Owner, Andy Ott, created Simon Sez Powerhouse Incorporated (SSPI Solutions) in the spring of 2003 in an effort to keep up with the growing need of installers available to do retail store installations throughout the midwest. \n \nThe backbone to SSPI Solutions has been sign and lighting maintenance, including retrofitting and LED installations.  \n \nTree Services is the newest branch of SSPI Solutions, which budded in the fall of 2018 out of the love for his family and the great outdoors. For years, Andy's family has managed timber land in order to accommodate a passion for wildlife and habitat improvement. As their experience and equipment continued to expand, so did opportunities. Word of these services began to spread through the community and more and more requests came through for tree removal. \n \nWith strong roots and cultivating new ideas and solutions, who knows where they will branch out next! \n

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Tree experts don’t advise against digging through tree roots, but instead encourage caution and consultation with a local arborist to make sure you don’t damage the tree’s structure or interrupt its water or nutrient intake. An arborist can recommend specific practices when digging and help prune the roots or dig a trench for utilities with a tool that can remove soil without touching the tree’s roots.

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.

Trees are beneficial to the environment and wildlife. If you have an old tree, but it’s healthy, it may be best to avoid cutting it down. However, if it’s showing signs of bug infestation, disease, or is potentially hazardous, then you should contact a tree removal company to cut it down. 

If you are unsure whether you should have it removed or not, then speak with an arborist to determine what is best.

Pruning trees during the summer can be a bad idea because the new growth will take place during the hottest months of the year, which can stress your tree out. Similarly, pruning during the early fall can be a bad idea, too, because you’d be stimulating new growth when most trees are aiming to go dormant. 

Pruning recommendations will vary by the type of tree, but generally, waiting until winter to prune your trees is a good idea.

Trees naturally want to grow upward, so one may straighten all by itself, though this only comes into play when a tree is leaning just a small amount. For trees growing into an awkward position or those leaning heavily in one direction, the above steps are necessary to ensure the tree gets back on the right path. This also holds true for trees planted in a spot with unstable soil.
