"Des Moines Area Roofing was professional, trustworthy, and demonstrated excellent attention to detail from initial contact to job completion. Cleanup was so thorough that the next day you wouldn't even know that such a major project had taken place. It has been 2 weeks since the new roofs and we haven't seen even one stray nail left behind (and they did a complete tear down to both buildings, right down to the wood). An excellent company with which to do business. I offer my highest possible recommendation."

"There are not enough superlatives to describe the work ethics and quality of service that Eli and Dan perform. Weeks of persistent wind had brought down so many limbs and sticks from my 2 big old sycamore trees, I could not keep up with the work of cleaning up after them, so in a moment of utter exhaustion, I searched for a tree service to consider taking them down. Eli called and came in very short order to assess the job, and right off the bat, he asked if I was a veteran because they like to give a 10% veterans discount. Well, I am a veteran, but nobody had ever asked me that before with any service that I had ever used for anything. My spur of the moment decision to get those trees down was one of the best I have ever made. I have never seen such hard working, considerate and respectful young men, and they were diligent at cleaning up, leaving the area looking much better than it had before. I am extremely impressed and very pleased,. A month later, a big limb fell from on old tree in my front yard took out my power line and made a big mess,, And this happened after the power company had already trimmed out what they considered threatening limbs. This time there was NO question about who to call. And once again, Eli and Dan did the job with excellence and left the area better and cleaner than it had been before. Some of the limbs on that tree had begun to hollow out, so the potential for the next one to fall on or thru the roof was very real, but thankfully averted. I can most certainly and wholeheartedly recommend them for your tree service job,."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

Grinding down a tree helps reduce the risk of foundation damage and pests and even helps your home’s curb appeal. Stumps can also be a safety hazard. If grass grows above the stump and someone else mows your yard, they may be in for a rude awakening when they accidentally hit it.

Whether tree roots will continue to grow after a tree has been cut down depends on the species. Some tree roots will eventually die because they can no longer get nutrients through photosynthesis. However, other species that reproduce through root sprouts can continue to grow and produce new sprouts for seven years or more. For example, the roots of elms, ficus, and willows tend to regrow aggressively, while the roots of pines, oaks, and maples will typically die. To determine if a root system is still active, look for new sprouts on the old trunk, stump, or any exposed roots.

DIY pruning is possible for small trees and shrubs with basic tools. However, for larger trees, more hazardous removals, or to ensure proper pruning techniques are used, it is recommended to hire a professional for safety.

Unfortunately, if you cut the top off a palm tree, it will die. Instead of budding or branching out, the top begins to slowly rot. That's why having a professional tree trimming at least twice a year is a good idea. If you don’t have experience with trimming your palm tree, you might accidentally cut the top off, leaving a dead and rotting tree in your wake.
