"Great group of guys! They completed a big task in my yard with multiple big hemlocks and pine. They also removed a huge brush pile that was in my yard from other trees I cut down. Great price and amazing work! Highly recommend them!"

"I contacted KB Tree Services because we had a very large tree leaning over our home and I was concerned it might fall if there was a severe storm this winter. I was impressed, not only by how quickly they came out to look at the job but also by how fast they got me a quote and completed all the work. Their team was friendly and left the area completely clean afterward. My husband and I were very happy with the whole experience. Thank you!"

"I had a great experience with Maine Roots Stump Grinding. Lucas took care of two stumps for me and did an amazing job! Communication was excellent from start to finish. Lucas was friendly, prompt, and easy to work with. Both stump sites look great. What a difference it makes in how my yard looks to have the stumps taken out. I really appreciate the quality of the job and would definitely recommend this service to anyone needing stump grinding."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It depends on where you live—but in most areas, leaves begin falling in September and continue falling until January or February. Warmer regions, such as Southern states, may see leaves fall a bit later in the calendar year. It also depends on the type of trees in your yard and their maturity. 

There are many signs that a tree is diseased or dying, and if you suspect that’s the case, you should call an arborist immediately. You might notice rot or fungus on the trunk or that the tree is beginning to lean to one side. Brittle branches or signs of root damage are other indicators that a tree is in trouble. If the tree is dying, it might be time to cut the tree down so it doesn’t fall.

On average, tree removal costs around $750, with a typical range between $200 and $2,000. The final price depends on several factors, including the tree's height, trunk diameter, species, and overall health. Accessibility is also a key factor; costs will be higher if the tree is in a hard-to-reach area or located near structures like power lines or your home. Additional costs may apply for services such as stump removal (which can add $100 to $150), log-splitting, debris cleanup, and obtaining necessary permits. It is also customary to tip the professional, usually between $20 and $100.

Unfortunately, most of the time you’re out of luck if a neighbor’s tree blocks your view. You don’t have a right to a view, so if you have a tree that’s near the property line but on your neighbor’s property, you can’t cut it to be able to take in a majestic mountain or a beautiful sunrise. In some communities, however, there are ordinances protecting scenic views. Checking into your local laws can help you determine your rights in this situation.

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.
