"I had an area of my deck rotting out. I had 2 other companies out that only wanted to sell a whole new deck and feed me a bunch of BS. Roots met me and showed me exactly what was bad and what he could do to fix it and make it look like it was never patched. His price was very fair. No BS, straight to the point. They worked clean. No mess, and they were very mindful of the many flowers and shrubs along the deck. Job well done."

"They were super communicative and willing to work with us as we are out-of-town owners. Jesse was very knowledgeable about are various trees and their points in the life cycle. He listened carefully to what we wanted right now as well as our future plans and made suggestions to help with that plan. When it was time for the job, we always received a notification from Danielle letting us know when Jesse was on his way or if there was any delay, etc. As I said, spectacular communication! Since we were out-of-town, Jesse sent plenty of before and after photos and even offered a video walk around, but I could see that he did exactly what we had discussed and even got a little more that we thought we'd be able to get on the Lakeshore side. I can not say enough good things about our experience with Roman Empire Tree. We will definitely be using them for all future work on our property and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for land clearing or even basic tree removal service!"

"HIGHLY RECOMMEND! They were fast, efficient and very communicative! I had a tree that had been threatening to take out my neighbors new fence but I could not find a service that would return my calls or offer a quote. Wholeheartedly contacted me quickly with an honest quote and had the job done before I even got home from work. I will most definitely be hiring them again!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

A serrated knife will work for cutting off small palm tree fronds, about 1 inch in diameter. For larger fronds, you will need pruning shears. You may also use a pruning saw, and if your palm tree is especially tall, an extended pole saw can help you reach the brown fronds around the trunk.

Most tree surgeons cost around $100 per hour or between $70 and $200 per hour for their services. You might get flat fees for more straightforward services, like a tree assessment, tree removal, stump grinding, and one-off treatments, but many times, treatments for tree diseases or pests will be charged based on an hourly rate or a per-visit rate. Since the cost of a tree surgeon can vary widely, it’s best to speak with an arborist near you to get an idea of what your particular issue will cost to correct.

Dead trees are dangerous for several reasons. They are structurally compromised and prone to branch or trunk failure, which can pose a significant safety risk to people, vehicles, and nearby structures. Dead trees can also harbor pests like termites, which may spread to other trees or your home. If a tree died from a disease, it could spread the illness to healthy trees. Additionally, the dry wood is highly flammable, increasing fire risk.

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.

Deciduous shade trees (the type of trees whose leaves fall off in autumn) need to be pruned in late winter—between February and March. That’s because it’s easier to find and remove sick or dead branches when no leaves are present. And wounds close and heal faster in colder temperatures so pruning them at this time also makes them less prone to infection.
