"Requesting a quote from and then hiring Illinois Tree Service was quick and easy. Their quote was the same as another large operation in town, but they didn't need to bring massive equipment into the yard as the other company had in the past. A large crew of men worked safely and efficiently for about six to seven hours to remove both old cottonwoods and grind their stumps. They cleaned up beautifully as they worked and left the yard free of sticks and branches. I would highly recommend them."

"Well equipped with top of the line machines. Crew is well rehearsed and efficient. Took down a 50ft , 60 year old silver maple in 3 hours including destumping. Cleaned up well. I have used several tree service companies over the years but never twice. I shall use Fernandez again - excellent service at a reasonable price."

"Cardona Tree Service did an excellent job removing a huge dying tree for me. They cut the tree, ground the stump and hauled every thing off. They did a great job of cleaning up after they were done. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing tree service. Larry M."

"Great communication; Tom responded to my request almost immediately. He is extremely knowledgable. Walking around my property he advised me on several issues looking over my many fruit trees and shrubs of which he knew the species of every one. The same with all my early emerging perennials. I scheduled spring weed control, fertilization, and aeration in the fall. Love that they use organic products! I cannot wait to see the difference in my yard."

"Luis and his crew has done fabulous work on our property for a few years. Their work is impeccable. They make our yard look like Walt Disney World! We definitely recommend this company! They trim our trees and bushes, remove troubled plantings and weeds, replant new bushes and new perennials, add new mulch, clean the yard and landscape beds, and make the property look like it belongs in a magazine. We?ve had numerous companies do work on our property and LJ Tree Service, Inc. surpasses all of them."

"I hired Tomax on the basis of recommendations made on Nextdoor and am glad I did. Tom is a real professional who asked me to get him all the drawings for my backyard so that they could remove the tree and stump without harming any water or electrical lines. Tom also had the utility service come out to make all lines. The tree was taken down by Tom and his crew professionally and cleanly, and then the stump was expertly and carefully removed by Joe, who also cleaned up afterwards. Tomax is the best!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Carefully pruning small roots no thicker than three inches in diameter won’t harm the tree. However, cutting larger roots may impact the tree's stability and nutrient absorption. It's advisable to consult an arborist or tree care professional to evaluate the root's size, the tree's health, and the potential impact of cutting. Proper tree pruning techniques and timing can minimize damage, but larger root removal may necessitate expert guidance to avoid compromising the tree's overall health and stability.

Trees should be pruned every two to five years, depending on its age and type. Young trees should be inspected and pruned every two to three years. Mature trees should be inspected and trimmed every three to five years, and fruit trees should be pruned annually with a careful eye on seasonal growth. Evergreens typically don’t need pruning, unless branches or limbs are damaged, diseased, or harboring pests.

You can use a felling ax to chop down a tree by following the same prep and steps as a chainsaw, but be prepared to use some muscle. For trees bigger than 7 inches in diameter, it can take some time and serious strength to cut down a tree using just an ax. 

If you’re planning on keeping the tree, unless the roots are invasive, there’s no need to remove them, as doing so can cause damage to the tree. If the tree has been cut down and the stump and roots are left, grinding and removing the stump can cause root decay for some species. For other species, the stump and roots will need to be removed to prevent pests, disease, and possible tree regrowth.

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.
