"If anyone is looking for a tree removal company, I highly recommend Maximum Tree removal. I had several dangerous old brittle and sick trees. Maximum came with a full crew and removed them all, including stumps and clean up. Great people too! Couldn't be happier with their service."

"My neighbors (3 homes) and I contracted Undercut to trim 5 mature trees, and remove 4 mature trees. I was particularly impressed with their care and skill in dismantling and removing a very large maple that stood between 2 of our houses. They really enjoyed their work and each other which made it nice to have them working on our properties. Conscientious, careful, skilled, and punctual, they also did a great job cleaning up. Highly recommend them."

"Colin and his crew have been in Iowa since the day after the August 10th derecho that caused widespread damage. I was looking for a company to help remove a lot of debris from downed trees and to remove broken trees. He showed up with his crew the same day. They worked nonstop all day. He took great care to cause as little damage as possible to the yard. The entire team was professional and efficient. We were so impressed with Colin that we are having them back to take out the rest of the trees that we had originally planned to wait on. If you need any kind of tree care, removal, high risk removal, tree cabling, landscaping, yard cleanup, you cannot go wrong by hiring this company. I highly recommend them."

"Brett was a very pleasant man to work with. He listened to my suggestions and offered his professional opinion on other branches to take down. He was very careful in the trimming he did so as not to damage any property. His rates were very good. My property looks so much nicer now with all the dead branches he cut down for me. I would definitely recommend his services to others. Thanks Brettð ð"

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

Unfortunately, palm tree stumps are one of the most difficult types to remove due to how their roots grow. Unlike other trees, palm tree roots grow horizontally and vertically. Palm tree roots grow as deep as three feet into the ground, although soil and growing conditions could mean they go as far as 50 inches into the earth. 

If you want to be able to repurpose the grass in the area where you removed a stump later, you’ll have to dig quite deep—and perhaps wide—to trim away all the roots.

No. Topping a tree refers to severely cutting down all its major branches and tree in a straight line. It was once recommended for streetside deciduous trees but has fallen out of practice. Topping leads to many problems, removing so much of the tree that many trees struggle to survive and become much more vulnerable to insects and diseases. Also, it doesn’t really help tree growth as once assumed and often leads to an ugly appearance of many sprouting stems in competition to become new main branches.

Pruning can impact cold hardiness—but it’s less about the exact temperature and more about temperature variation. Generally, you don’t want to prune trees when there’s a risk of temperatures suddenly dropping from 50 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit to 0 degrees Fahrenheit or below. A tree is most sensitive until 48 hours after it’s pruned.

Trimming a tree can take anywhere from just two hours to a full day, depending on the age of the tree, the number of trees, and the species. Young trees are generally easier to trim, as their branches are often thinner in diameter and easier to reach compared to mature trees. They also tend to be healthier. If you haven’t trimmed your trees before or it’s been a while, the process could take even longer.

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.
