"Precision Tree Service is the best tree company that we have ever used. They are not the first ones but now they are our only "go to" tree service. They are professional and very friendly. They showed up on time to give the estimate and showed up on time to cut down the tree. We had a very big tree that would fall on our house or shop and carport. They definitely knew what they were doing to get the tree out and they cleaned up everything so that we could not even tell that they were here when they left. Very reasonable costs also."

"My home insurance company was all up in arms about the limbs of the 100+-year-old live oak in my front yard hanging over my roof . . . like a 100+-year-old live oak tree does. Carl came out to take a look, explained to me why the tree should be left as is (it's actually safer), offered to explain it to my insurance company, and even said if the insurance company insisted, he would refuse the project. He is passionate and knowledgeable about trees (I learned some neat tree facts!) as well as ethical in his approach. I'm delighted to report that the insurance company accepted Carl's viewpoint and have stopped demanding I butcher the tree, so I did not need Ferguson's services. But you better believe I'll be calling Ferguson's for all future tree needs!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Dutch elm disease can’t harm humans. In fact, according to Cal Fire, bark beetles aren’t even typically dangerous to trees unless that tree is already weakened. The problem comes when Dutch elm disease kills a tree. That tree is more at risk of falling and catching fire, which can pose a serious threat.

Unfortunately, palm tree stumps are one of the most difficult types to remove due to how their roots grow. Unlike other trees, palm tree roots grow horizontally and vertically. Palm tree roots grow as deep as three feet into the ground, although soil and growing conditions could mean they go as far as 50 inches into the earth. 

If you want to be able to repurpose the grass in the area where you removed a stump later, you’ll have to dig quite deep—and perhaps wide—to trim away all the roots.

Although the terms tree trimming and tree pruning are used interchangeably, they are very different types of tree maintenance. Tree trimming involves enhancing the appearance of your tree by removing unruly branches, providing your tree with ample sunlight and nutrients and prevents unsightly overgrowth. 

Tree pruning helps keep your trees disease-free. This process removes unhealthy growths, dead branches, and other unhealthy parts of the tree. It’s more common for deciduous and ornamental trees but not so common for evergreen trees. To determine which method you need, discuss it with a tree trimming specialist.

Not all evergreen conifers need to be pruned, but some do. Pruning pine trees is not necessary, but you can do so during June and July if you wish. On the other hand, spruce, firs, and junipers do need to be pruned from late winter to early spring.

The fastest ways to remove a tree stump are by grinding it or burning it.

Stump grinding is often the quickest method, with professionals able to chip away a stump and its roots within a single session. You have the option to hire a professional stump removal service or rent a stump grinder to do it yourself. However, it's important to note that these machines can be large, difficult to transport, and dangerous to operate without prior experience. For safety reasons, hiring a local arborist or landscape specialist is often recommended.

Burning is another fast option. Before you begin, check your local burn laws. The process involves drilling holes into the stump, filling them with vegetable oil, and waiting 24 to 48 hours. Afterward, you can add charcoal bricks to the surface and light the fire, which must be attended at all times.

For a more affordable but much slower alternative, you can use potassium nitrate pellets to accelerate the natural decomposition process. This method typically takes four to six months.
