Q: Can a tree grow back from a stump?

• <div><p>A tree can grow back from its stump, but full regrowth is unlikely (especially for more stubborn conifer trees). Instead, trees are more likely to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-stop-tree-stump-sprouts.htm">send up a number of shoots from the dead stump</a>, which will try to develop into primary stems over time. In other words, it will start to look increasingly bushy. The goal of killing and drying out a tree stump is to prevent that from happening, as well as make the stump easier to completely remove.</p></div>

Q: How do I know when a tree needs trimming?

• <div><p>Sometimes, knowing when you need tree-trimming services is straightforward, and other times, you have to do some investigating. Some tell-tale signs that you should have your tree trimmed include:</p><ul><li><p>A poorly-formed tree with unruly branches, which makes the tree appear odd-shaped. </p></li><li><p>A tree with tall or large branches that interfere with power lines or your home&rsquo;s exterior.</p></li><li><p>A tree that provides too much shade in the yard due to branch overgrowth.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: Can I take or eat fruit from a neighbor's tree if the branches hang over my property?

• <div><p>Generally, you do not have the right to take fruit from a neighbor's tree, even if the branches overhang your property. The fruit is considered the property of the tree's owner. While you may have the right to trim branches that cross into your yard, the fruit on them typically still belongs to your neighbor. However, laws can vary by state and municipality. In some areas, branches that extend into your yard or trees that straddle a property line may entitle you to some of the fruit. The best course of action is to speak with your neighbor, as they may be happy to share. If a conversation is not possible, check your local regulations before picking any fruit.</p></div>

Q: What signs does a tree show if it’s been struck by lightning?

• <div><p>After a big storm, you may not be sure if a tree was struck or not. Look for the telltale long scars, like strips or gouges in the bark of the tree, running in sometimes jagged lines down the length of the trunk. These scars will often show vulnerable living wood inside the tree. It&rsquo;s also common to see scorched or wilted leaves on the side or top of the tree where lightning struck.</p></div>

Q: Can a tree grow back after stump removal?

• <div><p>If a tree stump is removed properly, the chances of a tree growing back are low. However, if a tree has a robust root system, roots can sometimes sprout and someday grow into a tree. The chance of regrowth will depend on several factors such as the type of tree, soil quality, and strength of the root system. In general, it is not recommended to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/can-you-plant-tree-where-stump-removed%E2%80%8B.htm">plant a tree where a stump was removed</a>. </p></div>

The inspection service was excellent. Trenton explained the inspection process, findings and recommendations clearly. He represents the company professionally, and went above and beyond to help fix another issue that is unrelated to the roof.

Great company. Installed a new HVAC system for us. Everything was done on time, and they cleaned up after the work. The company followed up to insure we are happy with the system, which we are. The new type of Daikin condensers are quiet and have a nice appearance. Particular kudos to...
