"Palmer Tree Service removed my trees as discussed. However, the work they performed at my yard was very messy, and the cleaning was not up to my standards. They did not remove all the debris and caused significant damage to my lawn areas. Therefore, I give then 3 stars"

"C&J Tree service did an excellent job clearing some trees that were diseased on my property. They were on time, courteous and efficiently removed the trees and stumps, leaving the area ready for some fresh landscaping in the spring time (which I've already hired them to do). I highly recommend their services and plan to use them again for another project later this year to have arborvitae trees planted around the property line."

"The company owner recommended that instead of grinding the tree stump he would dig it up. I am glad for his recommendation. I can plant a new tree in the same spot. The work was done promptly and they cleaned up the area. The price was right."

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

If you’re looking to rot a tree stump fast, potassium nitrate will work far quicker than copper nails. First, drill several holes into the stump using a power drill, then pour potassium nitrate pellets into the holes. Next, add water to help the chemical absorb into the wood, thoroughly soaking the stump to ensure the pellets dissolve and spread evenly. Afterward, cover the stump with a tarp to retain moisture and block sunlight, then place mulch on top to secure it in place.

While trees can grow in the curb strip between the sidewalk and the street, this placement often poses the problem of interfering with overhead power lines. It’s best to consult your local utility provider and tree planting service before transplanting a tree that might grow into power lines. Also, you should never work within 20 feet of a live power line to avoid the risk of electric shock. Tree branches should never touch nearby power lines, so it’s essential to ensure your tree isn’t in danger of growing too close to them.

If a tree isn’t pruned, it can inhibit proper growth and fruit production, cause damage to both the tree and your property, and create entry points for pests and diseases. Pruning a tree enhances its stability, appearance, shape, and growth. Pruning trees regularly can also save you money long-term by avoiding overgrown or dangerous dying trees.

Generally, homeowners do not need permission to cut down a tree on their own private property, but there are several exceptions where a permit may be required. You might need a permit if the tree is particularly large, old, or a protected species, such as a heritage tree. Trees located near public property or power lines can also be subject to special rules. Additionally, many local governments and homeowners associations (HOAs) have regulations controlling which trees can be removed to manage an area's appearance or prevent the spread of invasive species. To avoid hefty fines, it is crucial to check with your local government and HOA to determine if a permit is needed before you begin.
