"Mike Thomas, the owner/operator responded to my call promptly. He came to my home within a few days and presented me with a written statement of cost on completion. My neighbors and I were able to schedule the stump grinding within a short period of time that fit our schedule. The work was completed as described in the work order. Mike arrived on time and completed the job in a neat and orderly fashion. I would recommend him to anyone including family and friends."

"Excellent, Exceptional are words that come to mind. Chris and his helper Bill did a fair amount of work at my home, which included removal of trees and shrubs, as well as, pruning trees and trimming shrubs. They were doing so well I added work that I was considering for another time to the list while they were here. Chris and Bill were professional, responsive, punctual, with clear communication skills doing quality work add cleanliness, good value with a touch of friendliness to the list for a five star experience. In the many years I have lived in my home I can not remember being so unexpectedly impressed with any of the many people I have hired to work here, in any category, as I have been with CG Arborist Service. A true gem of a company."

"Hire Zawalick to do your tree work, period. They respond quickly to questions, are flexible if scheduling changes are needed, complete work efficiently and do it a with a great attitude and competitive prices. Our project included taking down 25 large trees and grinding the remaining stumps, and all of the work was completed â wellâ in around four days. Highly recommend!!!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Rock salt or Epsom salt can damage and kill tree roots over several weeks and can even assist in removing the tree's stump. However, you need to drill holes or cut into the stump and surface tree roots to inject them properly with the salt. Repeat the process every two weeks until the roots visibly rot away.

You can use the formula mentioned earlier to calculate the depth of tree roots. Each inch of width of a tree trunk translates to six inches of depth within the root system. Large trees extend anywhere from 2 to 6 feet into the ground, with some magnificent specimens going even deeper.

Trees should be pruned every two to five years, depending on its age and type. Young trees should be inspected and pruned every two to three years. Mature trees should be inspected and trimmed every three to five years, and fruit trees should be pruned annually with a careful eye on seasonal growth. Evergreens typically don’t need pruning, unless branches or limbs are damaged, diseased, or harboring pests.

State and local laws vary, but in most cases, you are allowed to trim any branches from your neighbor's tree that cross your property line. However, it's important to ensure you do not damage the overall health of the tree in the process. Removing branches incorrectly can jeopardize the health of the tree and could lead to you being on the hook to replace it.

The ideal depth of a tree notch depends on the tree, but it should usually be between 20% and 25% of the tree’s depth. However, if the tree is leaning towards the direction of the notch, it can be cut more shallowly—at as little as 10% of the depth. When the tree is leaning away from the direction it needs to be felled, you can cut deeper, closer to 30%.
