"My previous review documented the incomplete job done by M&M Tree Service, Monte Linton, owner. After Home Advisor contacted him about same, he came and did the grinding, which was left of job from 9/25/19. He ground down other stumps, for which he was not responsible, as a way of making up for untimely completion of job. Mr. Linton has a pleasant spirit and held no ill feelings for my previous review. I will hire him again, if needed."

"It went well. William Podeski and his assistant came out and were finished in about an hour. He came out the day before and quoted us an affordable price, and gave advice as to how to trim the trees without damaging them. They trimmed several branches off three of our large trees that were close to the house. The price was very fair, especially when compared to the rates of other tree service competitors in the area and they did an excellent job. As the trimming work was for an insurance company, he gave the best advice he could on what they would be looking for with trimming, and offered to come back out at no charge if the insurance company had any further complaints about the trees. We would definitely hire them again and recommend them to others looking for a quality job at an affordable price!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

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.

In the case that a tree is growing directly on your property line, the cost of maintaining the tree is shared and is the property of both owners in common. In this case, all decisions regarding the maintenance of the tree must be made jointly, and both parties must agree on a course of action. You will need to agree with your neighbor about the cutting of any roots before you carry it out, and your neighbor must also consult with you before doing any trimming. Coming to an agreement with your neighbor about any shared trees ahead of necessary trimming and maintenance will make this process much simpler.

How often and long you should water a tree depends on the species and if it is mature or newly planted. The amount of water is also based on the tree's size. A good rule of thumb is approximately 5 gallons per inch of the trunk's diameter.

Adjusting watering to the recommended suggestions for the tree type and weather conditions is vital. For instance, watering trees during a drought is necessary, and you may need to water more frequently than usual.

The exact answer to this question depends on which region of the country you’re talking about, but according to various tree counts, some of the most common types of trees in the United States include red maple, Douglas fir, quaking aspen, loblolly pine, and sweetgum.

For safety reasons, leaning trees are best removed by a professional, as they may often tear away from the hinge, causing you to lose control over where the tree falls. If you choose to cut down a tree leaning slightly, avoid cutting off root protrusions before you start. Make your hinge a little longer than usual by cutting it deeper (up to 30% of the diameter) and applying a wedge into the felling cut on the side the tree is leaning. Stand away from the direction the tree leans while making your felling cut.
