"I strongly recommend BAH Pro tree service. They cut down a large dogwood tree that had become too big for the space. BAH Pro was prompt, polite, fair priced, and knew what to do. They cleaned up work site to complete their work."

"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."

"C.T Tree Service did an outstanding job from start to finish in assessing, maintaining my yard quality and carefully removing a dangerous tree from my yard. Not only were they incredibly professional, they were also helpful in educating my on healthy versus unhealthy trees. I would give them 10/10 starts if I could! Connor and his crew not only did a great job removing my tree and tree branches but also had special pads to not tear up my driveway! I highly recommend this company for your tree removal services!"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Surface-level tree roots might only pose a small threat, such as being a tripping hazard or obstacle when you mow your lawn. But if mature tree roots start growing in the direction of your home’s foundation or plumbing system, it could be a real problem. Cutting small tree roots out before they grow too large can keep your home safe without removing the whole tree.

If you don’t stake a tree that needs support, it could be at greater risk of being damaged or failing completely, whether it uproots or falls over. That could cause damage to your property or other surrounding trees. If you want to grow healthy trees, you may need to stake them for best results.

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.

Permits are often required for large tree removals, especially in urban areas or for protected species, ensuring regulation compliance and neighbor safety.

If you’re planning on keeping the tree, unless the roots are invasive, there’s no need to remove them, as doing so can cause damage to the tree. If the tree has been cut down and the stump and roots are left, grinding and removing the stump can cause root decay for some species. For other species, the stump and roots will need to be removed to prevent pests, disease, and possible tree regrowth.
