"OK, long review here, but Tree Images totally deserves it! Their crew recently did an AMAZING job taking out and trimming 3 large trees in my barely accessible backyard. If I could give this company more than 5 stars, I’d give them an 11 on a scale of 10. From my first phone call to Eric to schedule their estimator Tony’s visit, to the actual hard work by crew leader Joey and his team Scott, Kevin, Francisco, and Rogelio, this company is a TOTAL class act –everyone I dealt with was professional and knowledgeable, willing to answer all my questions, skillful, efficient and thorough…..plus personable and friendly on top of all of that : ) In the past I’d had bad experiences with tree companies’ work and billing practices, so I asked friends and neighbors for their recommendations. Tree Images got highest recommendation from a friend who had hired them to take down trees in very tight spaces. Some other companies wouldn’t even quote me when they saw the extremely narrow path between my house and my neighbor’s home, said they couldn’t get any equipment in. But Tree Images brought in an awesome piece of machinery, an impressive Spider Lift that was narrow enough to squeeze between houses and access my backyard (see my pics). The crew was so efficient and skillful that the job was completed, even down to a beautiful clean-up, in a little less than 5 hours. Team leader Joey and his crew were just fascinating to watch – an extremely well-practiced team, all in perfect sync with one another, doing the hard work efficiently and safely. And they were VERY careful to protect small understory plantings from the Spider and from the roped limbs coming down, as well as protecting my neighbor’s lawn with plywood sheets laid down for moving the 3+ ton Spider between houses. A MOST EXCELLENT job and all for a VERY REASONABLE COST, with no billing surprises….I was charged the same amount as Tony’s estimate. Tree images will most def be my go-to team for any future tree service…an EXCEPTIONAL experience, and I've already recommended Tree Images to friends and neighbors. MANY THANKS, guys!"

"We hired Mario's Landscaping of Cincy to provide a spring cleanup and make some changes in our current landscaping. We added rocks and block edging in some areas and kept mulch in other areas. Mario was great in helping us find just the right rocks and edging that we desired. His crew did a fantastic job in every aspect. We especially appreciated the attention to detail that he provided to make everything perfect and meet our requests and expectations. Also, his pricing was very reasonable. We highly recommend Mario's Landscaping of Cincy. You definitely will not be disappointed."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Whether tree roots will continue to grow after a tree has been cut down depends on the species. Some tree roots will eventually die because they can no longer get nutrients through photosynthesis. However, other species that reproduce through root sprouts can continue to grow and produce new sprouts for seven years or more. For example, the roots of elms, ficus, and willows tend to regrow aggressively, while the roots of pines, oaks, and maples will typically die. To determine if a root system is still active, look for new sprouts on the old trunk, stump, or any exposed roots.

Tree roots can take weeks to years to die, depending on the method you use. Chemical herbicides take the least amount of time—typically between three and four weeks—while homemade methods, like covering an old stump with leaves, could take between seven and eight years. If you’re unsure which method to use or how quickly you need to act, consulting with a pro is always a good idea.

The best time to cut down a tree is during its dormant season, typically in winter or early spring, after all the leaves have fallen. Removing a tree during this period is advantageous for several reasons. Frozen ground helps secure the tree stump, protects the surrounding landscape from damage, and reduces the risk of the tree falling in an unintended direction. With the leaves gone, there is less risk of the tree's foliage getting tangled with other trees. Additionally, since this is often a slower season for tree services, you may be able to hire a professional at a lower rate. This dormant period is also the best time for tree trimming.

You may wonder whether tree removal is tax deductible: Tree removal is not tax-deductible for homeowners unless it's related to a federally declared disaster. In that case, the cost may qualify as a casualty loss. However, if you own a commercial property, like a rental home, tree removal could be deductible if it's necessary for safety, maintenance, or part of a larger capital improvement project, and you must hire a professional tree removal service and keep documentation. Always consult a tax professional beforehand to see if you qualify.

You may need permission to take a tree down. Check with your local ordinances about rules regarding tree removal and to gain any necessary permits. Check with your local ordinances or the fire department if you plan to burn the stump. Make sure you have all the steps in place before removing the tree, or contact a local tree removal service.
