"Ray Menefee's was very prompt for their appointment to cut down our 2 trees(remove stumps) and trim up another tree. They were very safe in their removal of the trees, and did not damage any of our property. They cut the remaining logs/branches into good sizes. They trimmed up the tree in the back yard exactly how we had envisioned it. The workers were nice. There are only 2 complaints I have about the entire process. The stump for the largest tree was not removed in its entirety and there is a small section slightly above ground. I didn't notice right away due to the wood fragments on area. There was also trash left in yard."

"If I could give Alex a 6 star score I would. We were very satisfied with the job that he did repairing our concrete porch. He explained everything in detail and did what he said he was going to do. I would highly recommend Alex."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Transplanting a palm tree is a similar process except for a couple of important differences. First, their root ball doesn’t need to be as large as a “true” tree, which makes them a bit easier to dig up and move around. Second, they struggle more with taking root and staying upright in a new location, so it’s important to give them extra support when staking. 

Rock salt or Epsom salt can damage and kill tree roots over several weeks and can even assist in removing the tree's stump. However, you need to drill holes or cut into the stump and surface tree roots to inject them properly with the salt. Repeat the process every two weeks until the roots visibly rot away.

To maintain trees on a commercial property, perform regular pruning, monitor for diseases, and apply fertilization to promote healthy growth. It is also important to remove any hazardous branches to keep the trees healthy and prevent potential liability issues.

Generally, you should prune around 20% of an apple tree’s growth—and never more than 30%. This means that if you have a severely overgrown tree, it can take a few seasons to prune it back enough to produce the healthiest fruit. 

If you’re dealing with a newly planted or juvenile tree, hold off on pruning beyond the initial shaping. Wait at least a couple of seasons into fruit production since pruning can increase the number of water sprouts and unproductive foliage.

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.
