"Positive: Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Responsiveness, Value If you are removing trees, limbs or getting stumps ground, these are the guys to call from Traverse City to Pentwater/Hart. I live in Ludington and had 32 trees removed at my residential home, along with all stumps ground, and clean-up. Unbelievable experience from the start. Jesse the owner is an up and coming leader in this business with his knowledge and drive. His wife Danielle could not have been more cordial, quick on follow-up, and accurate with her appointments. Even through some staffing issues and equipment issues they never missed a beat and got the 5 day job done on time, and at budget. Foreman Sean Williamson was outstanding. His smarts and work ethic showed brightly. I watched him do a complicated job, all while teaching two different new hires. Seriously, I expect Roman Empire LLC to be booked as far as they want with the standard they are setting. Please pass this along and strongly consider them for your, or someone you know's tree service needs. As professional as it gets. Sincerely, Steve Erickson Ludington Michigan"

"Service was prompt and professional, our tree looks great now. Very impressed with the clean-up effort, when they left you couldn't even tell they had been there - no debris left in the yard at all.

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Yes, burning wood with Dutch elm disease is a safer way to dispose of it than, say, tossing it in with the rest of your yard waste, which could potentially allow it to spread to healthy trees. But it’s always a good idea to check with your local government to make sure you’re complying with any ordinances about removing diseased trees as well as burning brush piles.

If you’re wondering whether you can plant a tree where the stump was removed, know that the soil conditions won’t be ideal, so you should avoid it. The soil beneath the previous tree will likely be depleted of nutrients, plus there may be roots left behind that will seriously hinder the growth of a new tree. Also, if you use salt or other chemical solutions to kill the stump, these can linger in the soil for months or even years and prevent healthy growth. It’s best to choose a different spot that’s at least three feet away for a new tree, or wait at least a year and thoroughly amend the soil before you plant.

According to scientists at Penn State University, spotted lanternflies do not typically kill the trees and plants they feed on, but they can cause branches and segments to die off. However, they have been found to kill cultivated grapes, which can have devastating consequences for vineyard owners and regions that heavily rely on vineyards to create jobs and generate revenue. They have also killed the Ailanthu altissima, known as the tree of heaven, though this is classified as a noxious and invasive weed tree.

If a tree isn’t pruned, it can inhibit proper growth and fruit production, cause damage to both the tree and your property, and create entry points for pests and diseases. Pruning a tree enhances its stability, appearance, shape, and growth. Pruning trees regularly can also save you money long-term by avoiding overgrown or dangerous dying trees.

Tree experts don’t advise against digging through tree roots, but instead encourage caution and consultation with a local arborist to make sure you don’t damage the tree’s structure or interrupt its water or nutrient intake. An arborist can recommend specific practices when digging and help prune the roots or dig a trench for utilities with a tool that can remove soil without touching the tree’s roots.
