"Jose and his crew took down a huge 200+ year old tree on our property. They did an excellent job! They are professional experts and we will most definitely call them again to trim and/or remove the other old trees that need attention. Jose was quick to answer our call and worked with our schedule. We highly recommend MW Tree Service!"

"The Tim Mente crew performed the felling of six dead mature trees on our property with great skill, care and professionalism. Two very large trees adjacent to our neighbor's property line were dismantled in sections and gently lowered to the ground. Not a single branch fell into the nearby yard. Our lawn was swept free of all debris and chipped. We will use this byproduct for mulch. Logs were removed very skillfully by a worker operating a Toro tracked Dingo. Plywood was laid down to protect our lawn. The company is licensed and insured to a sufficient level. The total job price was very competitive and significantly less than the top bidder. Tim Mente's crew earned an A+ rating from us. We most definitely would recommend them to others and, when needed, call upon their services again."

"Mr. Hill and his wife came out and surveyed the trees in the ground within two days to see what I would like to have done. We thought it would take weeks for them to use as a starting date for it to be done they showed up on time and within three days. I was taken down and away and done exactly how I wanted to be. The grounds are so clear you can’t even tell that we had a tree down and limbs all over the place. It was a very fair price and I would hire Mr. Hill again."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is essential to confirm that any tree service company you hire is properly insured before they begin work. Tree removal, trimming, and pruning are dangerous jobs, and proper insurance protects you, your home, and the company from liability in case of accidents or damage. Look for a company that carries both general liability and workers’ compensation insurance, and do not hire one that cannot provide proof of coverage. When browsing for professionals, you can look for indicators like an “Angi Approved” badge, which signifies that the business meets standards like holding applicable licenses and passing a background check. Keep in mind that a license is a legal requirement to operate, while certifications are typically voluntary.

Burning a tree stump can be effective, but it comes with safety considerations and isn’t always best for every situation. It's essential to check local regulations and assess the safety risks involved. Stumps that are near wooden structures or other non-moveable flammable objects aren’t good candidates for burning due to the risk of the fire spreading. Alternatives like grinding or a DIY stump rotting project might be safer and quicker for getting the job done.

If a disease has attacked and destroyed the roots, then the tree may fall over as soon as it has died or while part of it is still alive. Trees that die with their roots left in place tend to stay standing for much longer, but those roots will decay eventually, allowing gravity to do the rest.

When a palm tree no longer produces new fronds and old fronds start turning yellow-brown, that’s a sign the tree is dying. However, transplanted palm trees can show these signs for the first several months as they re-establish themselves. It’s best to keep watering and not give up on the palm tree until a couple of seasons have passed and you’re sure it’s not coming back to life.

The depth of tree roots depends on the species. Trees like oaks and maples can have root systems that grow down 20 feet or more. However, trees that grow in shallow soils will have roots that go only a few feet down. Research how your tree species grows in your climate area to estimate root depth.
