"Alex came out on a Sunday to give us a quote. The quote was half of what we had received from another company. They were out within the week. Completed exactly what we had talked about. They even cut and stacked some of the bigger pieces for firewood for us! The yard was left clean. If you have tree work needing to be done - I definitely recommend reaching out to them."

"Good price for a great and very efficient service. They cut and removed one large tree then they moved to a second site to remove several large drooping branches from a huge maple. They were done in less than 2 1/2 hours. They exceeded my expectation."

"As a worried homeowner with 5 very old 40 foot trees in between my house and my neighbors with fall debris every time the wind blew I was fortunate enough to get set up with Mr Tom Gray I found him to be a no nonsense guy ( like myself) honest he came out on a Sunday gave me a free quote was impressed with the price thinking it was gonna be higher going into this project lucky break for me he was able to get on the job next day as I watched him and his crew roll in with their state of art equipment I knew I chose the right man for the job I watched in amazement as his crew gets right down to business watching the 10 of them work together was impressive they drop all 5 trees with pin pointing accuracy everything went like clockwork from the minute they arrived till they rolled out of my driveway 4 hours later debris was loaded yard was cleaner than when they started I can’t say enough about how satisfied I was to find someone that cares about doing a good job and cares for employees and most of all his customers!! I was 110 percent satisfied I recommend him to anyone that needs tree work including my family and friends."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Tree roots are hearty and complex systems, so they don’t die immediately after the rest of the tree is removed. If you leave the root system in place, it takes anywhere from two to seven years for it to run out of nutrients. It is worth noting, however, that the roots stop growing and expanding after cutting down the rest of the tree.

The best time to transplant a tree is when it is dormant. For many trees, this means either in the fall after the leaves have dropped (around October or November) or in early spring before new growth begins (around March). The ideal timing can depend on the type of tree. Deciduous trees do well when moved in early spring or fall, while evergreens are best transplanted in early spring or late summer. For example, pine trees are best moved in early fall, but maples prefer late fall. Avoid transplanting in winter, as the frozen or hard, cold soil poses a significant risk to the roots and prevents the tree from acclimating properly.

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.

While the fastest way to kill a tree is to simply cut it down, there are several other methods to choose from. You should hire a professional tree removal service to cut down a tree to ensure your personal and property safety. Some slower but effective options include treating or grinding the tree stump or using a basal bark treatment. 

The speed of your tree root removal process depends on a few different factors, including the size and type of tree. However, the fastest method of killing tree roots is applying chemical herbicide, which starts working quickly and efficiently. But this removal method has its drawbacks, such as having a negative effect on the surrounding vegetation and landscaping. Other options like rock salt and stump grinding work relatively quickly and cause less damage to your yard.
