"North Idaho Tree Works was recommended to us by our neighbor who was really happy with Josh's work, and we can't recommend Josh and his team enough! Super respectful, professional, fair, and really high quality work. Josh removed 6 trees from our front yard in one day (1 that had died and 5 that were growing into our home's foundation). At least 2 of those trees were not easy work, as they were leaning back over our roof and required careful attention and expertise to get them down without damaging our roof. Josh and his team got all 6 trees down without issue, and removed all of the branches and debris, and left any wood we asked to keep for firewood. We also had 3 young fruit trees in our yard very close to the large trees being removed, and Josh and his crew were very mindful to work around them. Really grateful for the work done by North Idaho Tree works. Can't recommend them enough, and we will definitely call them again for any trimming or tree work in the future. Thanks again Josh!"

"Brent and his crew did an awesome job at landscaping a larger planter area. He removed the overgrown area of excess brush and plants, replanted some plants and topped it off with decorative bark. The job was done in record time and it looks great! I would highly recomend ATL to anyone and already have. Chuck S."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

If you’re taking down a tree that you don’t suspect is affected by disease or pests and it’s nowhere near your home or other structures, then calling in a tree company should work fine. However, anything more involved means an arborist is a better option. These pros have years of experience with tree removal and can safely take down trees located next to structures, and they have the tools, sanitization equipment, and experience to remove sick or dying trees without infecting nearby trees. 

Bleach can potentially kill some types of delicate ornamental trees, but for the most part, it will only kill the foliage it comes in contact with. Applying bleach is not an effective method of killing a tree. A better option is to use an herbicide, which is a chemical compound designed to effectively kill a tree. 

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

A general rule is that trees need 10 gallons of water for each inch of the tree’s diameter. For large trees, that can amount to approximately 160 gallons of water or more. Watering big trees to this extent can take quite a bit of time using a hose. For this reason, you may consider installing a soaker hose or sprinkler system to make the job easier.  

The best tool to cut trees is a chain saw. You can adjust your chain saw to the correct size based on the size of the branches, offering you the fastest and cleanest cut for medium- to large-sized trees. Depending on the type of chainsaw you use, you can cut through larger trees than you would with a more manual tool like an ax.
