"Trimming was complete and nice cleanup done.   The workers even went out of their way to cleanup branches that had been cut down by a fence vendor and just left behind the fence.
Vendor very willing to work with change of plan on what needed done during the service.  Originally Cottonwood was going to be trimmed but in such poor shape, dangerous for climber and wouldn't last much longer so decided to remove.
Tree and stump that was removed....   used stump grinder.  All of the stump debris was left and was told it would disappear shortly by being watered.  It is still there after 3 months, will need to remove ourselves.  Also...some large roots coming off of this tree within a couple of feet are still there and poking out of the ground.  They were hidden under the stump debris.  We will need to dig out. in order to level ground.   I wouldn't hesitate to use vendor again but would be more forceful in making sure all of  the cleanup on a stump removal was done and check for problems with roots.  I attribute this issue to the fact that this work was done late in the day and it was getting dark.

"Ironforged Excavation recently completed work on my property and I couldn't be more impressed. They not only delivered on their initial quote with exceptional quality but also went above and beyond by tackling several smaller projects I'd been putting off, including filling in an old trampoline hole. My garden beds look fantastic, and the brush and tree clearing they did has truly transformed the landscape! Will definitely be hiring for future projects! Fair pricing for the work the completed! Will definitely be hiring for future projects :)"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

You can hire a professional arborist or tree removal service to cut down a tree to ensure safety, prevent property damage, and comply with all the local regulations. It’s highly advisable to always hire a professional, as tree removal can be extremely dangerous, especially for large or damaged trees. Certified arborists or tree removal experts have the proper equipment, training, and insurance to do the job safely and efficiently. They can also handle cleanup, stump removal, and obtaining the necessary permits.

Some fast-acting products can rot a tree stump in four to six weeks. Keep in mind, these products contain harsh chemicals that may prevent regrowth in the area. Other products, like fertilizer that contains lots of nitrogen, can enhance the process and rot a stump in about a year. (This is compared to the ten years it can take naturally for a stump to rot.)

You can use a chainsaw, but it won’t remove the entire stump or root ball and is not a recommended method. It takes quite a bit of physical work to achieve and will likely dull or ruin your chainsaw. Instead, consider using salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, stump grinding, or burning to kill a tree stump. These methods allow you to kill a stump using minimal machinery and physical exertion.

Yes, many services include stump grinding to eliminate tripping hazards and improve aesthetics.

Only trim palm trees as needed, which is usually about once per year. However, don't stick to that schedule if the palm tree doesn't need it. Avoid trimming palm trees when possible. It’s best to trim palm trees only when you notice a buildup of dead fronds. That said, leave the brown fronds during the dormant season because this organic matter helps protect the tree from the cooler weather.
