"There were 3 guys, One was the tree climber. He did all the cutting & trimming. The other two guys were on the ground and they all worked in unison to navigate the cut branches & limbs from falling on the electric cables & my fence in the backyard. They worked non-stop until the job was completed. Any branches and limbs that fell in my yard & neighbor's yard they removed & raked up the twigs, thoroughly cleaned up! All 3 were respectful of my property and hard workers. I have Oak trees in my backyard and they have a lot of branches, the guys worked non-stop until the job was completed. They arrived by 9:00 a.m. and were done by the afternoon! I recommend Reyes Tree Service and would hire them again!"

Quick to come by and quote the job, and fit me in his schedule pretty quickly! I would recommend him to anyone needing quality tree service!"

"Alberto from Bison Landscaping was extremely easy to work with from the very beginning when he examined the work I needed completed. He provided a very detailed cost estimate to fix my retaining walls in my backyard. He was very understanding, took precise measurements, and provided options to replace the damaged RR ties that formed my backyard landscaping retaining walls. Other contractors provided estimates without measurements which I found very odd. Alberto was thorough and provided multiple pictures of stone walls he installed for other clients. It was very easy for us to choose exactly what we wanted installed. He and his team battled some very poor weather when work first began, but made quick progress in removing all RR ties and tree roots. They also installed drainage piping and gravel along the walls' foundations. The team cleaned the entire work area and the project took only one week! We are so happy our backyard wall is fixed and looks great! We highly recommend them!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

All of the tree root removal methods mentioned above are effective on any kind of root, whether it’s still growing or simply needs a gentle nudge to finish decomposing. The only difference is that larger roots tend to be harder to remove and may require multiple chemical treatments as well as manual labor to eradicate.

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

You can use a chainsaw, but it won’t remove the entire stump or root ball and is not a recommended method. It takes quite a bit of physical work to achieve and will likely dull or ruin your chainsaw. Instead, consider using salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, stump grinding, or burning to kill a tree stump. These methods allow you to kill a stump using minimal machinery and physical exertion.

Getting a tree pro with the right experience can be the difference between your transplanted tree surviving or not. When hiring a local tree transplanting and removal service, follow up on references, check their portfolio, ask for a breakdown of the costs, and get proof of liability and workers’ compensation insurance. 

Also, look for companies certified by the International Society of Arboriculture or registered with the Tree Care Industry Association and make sure they have an appropriate state or city license.
