"The crew did an incredible job clearing our backyard. We purchased a home that had been vacant for a while and the backyard had become extremely overgrown with a maze of dead trees and stumps everywhere. Jeremy approached the project with a "no big deal" attitude and kept us updated with many pictures and videos throughout the process. They did such a fantastic job, we highly recommend them for any forestry needs."

I take care of the dirty, heavy work that homeowners and contractors don't want to handle around Monroe, Adrian, and the surrounding areas. With a heavy-duty F-250 and a big hydraulic dump trailer, we do everything from ripping out old kitchens and tearing down sheds to clearing overgrown brush, grading land, and cleaning out gutters. We don't just show up, smash things, and leave a mess—we handle the full demolition, pack up the trailer, and haul every piece of trash straight to the landfill so your property is completely clean and ready for whatever's next. If you need a job done fast, safely, and without the corporate hassle, give me a call.

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Carefully pruning small roots no thicker than three inches in diameter won’t harm the tree. However, cutting larger roots may impact the tree's stability and nutrient absorption. It's advisable to consult an arborist or tree care professional to evaluate the root's size, the tree's health, and the potential impact of cutting. Proper tree pruning techniques and timing can minimize damage, but larger root removal may necessitate expert guidance to avoid compromising the tree's overall health and stability.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

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.

It takes anywhere from three to seven years for a stump to decompose on its own. This timeframe can depend on the kind of tree and your climate. The lower to the ground the stump is, the faster it rots. If you kill a tree stump with salt, boiling water, herbicide, light deprivation, or burning, the tree stump decomposes faster. 

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.
