"Alex and his crew responded to my request immediately and got the job done within a couple hours. They were already working in the neighborhood. They cut down a huge oak tree including grinding the stump and cleanups. Cost less than the rest. I absolutely recommend them."

"Ruben's Tree Services did an incredible job. We hired them to cut down our tree and grind the stump. They were outstanding proffesionals who did a fantastic job. The tree was in my backyard and hung over the house and shed so it was a difficult job and they made it look easy. They did a great job cleaning up as well. If you need work done at a reasonable price, I would highly recommend them."

"Was in contact in the morning and they came out for a quote a couple hours later. They had an opening that afternoon so I had them remove one tree and prune 2 others also trimmed and top some Arborvitae’s. Great price for great work."

"Great company, great prices, very reliable. I needed a very large stump removed from my mothers lawn. I hit up Angieâ s list and then Josh from the Stump Brothers was the first to contact me. He quoted me over the phone and I went with him. Very nice guy and easy to do business with. Did a excellent job and ground the stump and roots around it deep. Some companies will not go to that extent leaving you with roots and parts of stump still in lawn. He also keeps his word. If he says heâ s coming out, he sticks to the appointment. I highly recommend his service and have him locked into my contact list for future use and to recommend to my friends and family. Thank you Josh and Stump Brothers for doing a great job and being an honest trusted company. A1 Mark Mason, Waterford MI"

"Thanks to Brent, Christie and the team for an excellent job! I had a dead tree over 60 ft cut down and branches of another pine tree overhanging my roof trimmed. They were professional, quick and cleaned up all the debris for a very reasonable price, I would definitely recommend them."

"Ryan and crew were professional, knowledgeable and very hard working. After receiving and approving Lynch's bid, they immediately started working and demonstrated that we had made a great hiring decision. They returned to finish up and, again, were impressive. In all, they removed eight arborvitae, a large Austrian Pine, and thoroughly trimmed a large Maple tree with some storm and structural damage. All stumps were ground, debris hauled away (except for some logs which were cut up for firewood for our neighbor) and all areas were raked and blown clean. Fantastic guys, great work ethic and understanding of what needed to be done. They have all the necessary equipment to get the job done and the attitude to do it well. We have already recommended Ryan to several neighbors and will definitely hire them for any subsequent work."

"Wow! Incredible professionalism and efficient tree company with an incredible customer focus. And believe me there are a lot of high end tree companies in my country club neighborhood - this one is #1 and believe me standards are high. Tim removed my large tree like a surgeon taking branch by branch being careful of my house as he went. Crew cleaned up as he went and left my lot spotless. Did I mention they grind the stump down immediately after!! Not several days later like most others. Highly, highly recommend."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Palm trees are unique in that their roots don't grow straight down; they grow horizontally. Typically, palm tree roots go down between 12 and 36 inches deep. The roots grow far and wide from the base of the palm tree to absorb as much water and soil nutrients as possible. In addition, the horizontal roots are also very strong—keeping palm trees stable and helping them sway during storms.

A tree branch should start to form roots in about three months. It can take about a year for a tree branch to develop roots strong enough to go in the ground. For best results, start several branches because, no matter how closely you follow instructions, they won’t all form roots. Compost any that aren’t thriving.

It could be anywhere from weeks to years for a dead tree to fall. A dead tree falls based on its weight, how it leans, the state of its roots, the state of decay, and what local windstorms are like, among other factors. Since it’s hard to predict the fall’s timing, it’s important to cut down a dead tree quickly and avoid any unpleasant surprises.

Any cutting of tree roots can hurt or kill a tree, which is why it's recommended you don’t do it unless the roots are damaging or invasive on a nearby structure like your home. You should never cut more than 15 percent of above-ground tree roots at one time. If you have any questions about cutting tree roots, contact your local arborist.

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.
