"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,."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

For Bradford pears, damage from storms is common, and if the trunk splits, it can pose a danger to people and surrounding structures. The best thing to do in that instance is to have the tree removed. If there’s only minor damage to the branches, pruning away the damaged parts is the first order of business. You may also want to consult a professional arborist to make sure the tree is healthy.

We don’t recommend DIY tree trimming for a few different reasons. First, the tools required to trim a tree can be costly, up to $1,100 or more, for the ladders and specialized saws needed. 

Safety is another concern, especially when working with more mature trees. As a guideline, you should only DIY tree trimming when branches are less than two inches in diameter. Any more, and the safety risk becomes too high, which could lead to catastrophe. For this job, it’s safest to let a tree-trimming professional assess the work needed.

Yes, burning wood with Dutch elm disease is a safer way to dispose of it than, say, tossing it in with the rest of your yard waste, which could potentially allow it to spread to healthy trees. But it’s always a good idea to check with your local government to make sure you’re complying with any ordinances about removing diseased trees as well as burning brush piles.
