"I hired Guillermo and his crew to remove a large pine tree w/ stump grinding. The price was better than other tree removal services I have used in the past and they did an excellent job. I will definitely reach out to AMG again."

"Andrew's trees service gave me several options. Decided on having two tall trees and one good size branch (storm damage) removed. Awesome price, work and completed quickly. Cleaned up with no stray branches around. Can't even tell where they did the work, except for the two stumps! Plan on using again in the fall. Highly recommend!"

"First, I chose the category of <Maintain a Lawn,> which is less than they do. Not only do they do that, but they also do the fall and spring cleanup. This is the first and only landscaper we have ever employed. I always took care of my yard and lawn. I am retired.. Now, thanks to them, I donâ t feel stressed about it as they take care of the weekly mowing, cleaning the patio and making everything look amazing. They are exceedingly polite, they have a most incredible work ethic, and they are always there when you need them. I cannot speak highly enough of them. It was very hard for me to let go of my lawn work and they made it possible."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Since each tree is different, it’s impossible to say how long a dead tree can remain on your property. While it could be days, months, or even years, it’s highly likely that, at some point, the tree will fall. In the meantime, dying or dead trees can become a haven for pests, so it’s best to have them removed sooner rather than later.

Early signs that a tree is struggling include premature leaf shedding and lesions or other strange markings. Peeling bark, dead or rotten branches on the ground, and a conspicuous lack of leaves can all be signs that a tree has started to die. By the time a tree starts leaning, it’s usually too far gone to save.

Rock salt or Epsom salt can damage and kill tree roots over several weeks and can even assist in removing the tree's stump. However, you need to drill holes or cut into the stump and surface tree roots to inject them properly with the salt. Repeat the process every two weeks until the roots visibly rot away.

There are several signs that may indicate a tree needs to be cut down. These include visible damage to the trunk or branches, a hollow trunk, extensive storm damage, or a significant lean to one side. Other warning signs are pest infestations or the tree growing too close to a house, power lines, or other structures. It is best to hire a professional arborist to inspect the tree, as they can determine if it can be saved or if removal is necessary.

Tree removal can be quite expensive, especially for larger projects, but you can use the following tips to help keep costs down:

  • Do the yard cleanup afterward yourself

  • Choose to leave the logs on your property and split them yourself

  • Opt to leave the stump in the ground and tackle stump grinding yourself

  • Pull permits for tree removal, if necessary, to avoid fines

  • Pay to have multiple trees removed at once

  • Remove tree in the late winter or early spring during off-season
