"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."

"5D Landscaping and Cleanup did an amazing job. BJ did a full walk around of my 2 acre home and we went over everything I would like done. He started right away and made sure his timing and mine worked out and completed the job when promised. I would recommend this company to anyone. They are honest and thoughtful and did a great job. Asked me questions if he needed to and the clean up was way beyond what I expected. The value of the work I received was well worth the price we agreed upon. Thanks so much. Will differently use you for my spring cleanup."

"Rodney and his crew done a fabulous job with the trees working with non cooperating weather conditions which made their job which made their job harder. They also had a challenge with my small yard getting their equipment in to do the job professionally and safely which they done very creatively and professionally. The completed job cleanup was outstanding also. I would recommend this team to any Angi customers looking for a professional reliable trees service company."

"I reached out to him on a Sunday evening for a quote and within 24 hrs he was at my home and we talked about what was priority and what could wait for next spring. We scheduled the tree removal for 2 days later and when he arrived, he got the job done in less than an hour. His prices were affordable and we spoke about him coming back to remove a larger tree and several stumps. I’ll be sure to recommend him to those I know that’s looking to have trees removed"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

While there is a lot of debate about whether boiling water is strong enough to kill tree roots, it is not best to remove the roots from large, old trees. You may be able to weaken young roots enough to remove them manually, but boiling water will likely not do the trick for large root systems.

A chainsaw is the best tool to cut down a tree, but you may also use a handsaw or ax. You may also want to use a lopper or pole saw to remove limbs before cutting down the tree. Wear chainsaw chaps and protective gear, including eyewear and earplugs if you use a chainsaw. Again, if you’re unsure about how to use this tool, this project may be one to skip.

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.

If a tree stump is removed properly, the chances of a tree growing back are low. However, if a tree has a robust root system, roots can sometimes sprout and someday grow into a tree. The chance of regrowth will depend on several factors such as the type of tree, soil quality, and strength of the root system. In general, it is not recommended to plant a tree where a stump was removed.
