"After being ghosted by several "established" tree companies in Central Iowa I found online, I went to HomeAdvisor to find someone who would actually do the work after coming put to put in a bid on removing my dead ash tree. These guys fron E&H Maintenance called me and came out 2 days later to take a look at my tree. They gave me a reasonable bid and came by 6 days later to do the work. Just two very capable young men who worked hard and got most the tree down in one day, even having to work around multiple power lines and dealing with limbs hanging over my house. The next day they came back to cut down the rest of the trunk and they thoroughly cleaned everything up when they were finished. They did an amazing job with less equipment and with only two guys for about the same price the larger companies had quoted me. I would highly recommend skipping those tree companies who have websites and non-responsive office staff who may quote you a bid but will never bother to return your calls or come out when promised, and go with these two hard-working entrepreneurs. You'll be glad you worked with them, I guarantee it!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

While palm trees can bring aesthetic appeal to your yard, they have a couple of drawbacks. The main disadvantage is that many types require warm climates, so if you live in a cold region, you need to ensure you pick a palm that can withstand the freezing temperatures. Another downside is that maintenance can be difficult because of their height, which means you will need to pay a pro to prune the tree as needed.

If a tree stump is removed properly, the chances of a tree growing back are low. However, if a tree has a robust root system, roots can sometimes sprout and someday grow into a tree. The chance of regrowth will depend on several factors such as the type of tree, soil quality, and strength of the root system. In general, it is not recommended to plant a tree where a stump was removed.

The best pro to hire for spraying trees is a tree maintenance specialist. These pros are well-versed in selecting the right spray treatment and applying it properly to ensure there’s no collateral damage to the tree or surrounding landscape. Many tree maintenance services employ certified arborists, but for these routine visits, the extra investment usually isn’t necessary.

If you’re looking to rot a tree stump fast, potassium nitrate will work far quicker than copper nails. First, drill several holes into the stump using a power drill, then pour potassium nitrate pellets into the holes. Next, add water to help the chemical absorb into the wood, thoroughly soaking the stump to ensure the pellets dissolve and spread evenly. Afterward, cover the stump with a tarp to retain moisture and block sunlight, then place mulch on top to secure it in place.

Generally, no, tree topping isn’t a good technique, and you should avoid using it in most cases. Tree topping may be the only good option to save a tree following severe damage after a storm, but in most other cases, it’s not the right choice. Tree topping can leave trees vulnerable to disease and further damage, and most pros will suggest against it.
