I couldn't be happier with the service and all at a fair price. I would highly recommend and will be calling them this Fall for additional projects!"

"AAA Tree Pros did an excellent job removing 2 diseased ash trees from our property. They offered a fair price, scheduled the work very quickly, and handled everything safely and professionally. The crew removed the trees, hauled away all the wood, and ground the stumps thoroughly. The cleanup was great as well. Very happy with the service and would definitely recommend them."

"PHENOMENAL ~ Ever wonder what a Perfect Review would look like? Here it is. I put out an "All Call" for Tree Service, overhanging Power Lines, with branches beginning to break away and fall. Hector and Baron Tree Services responded IMMEDIATELY. I'm talking within 30 minutes. And, he was at the Project Site in under 90 minutes. Oh ~ At the beginning of the weekend. Scenario ~ 2 Trees, Lg and Sm Branches breaking and falling on Power Lines ~ So Many Things with heightened risk. Estimate provided. Following due diligence on my part, Baron was top Response, On-Site Assessment, Bid (25% lower than all others; Disabled Veteran Discount). Start date 48 hrs. This is not AI, although it went this perfectly. Cordial, Professional, Punctual, Personable, Transparent... Job finished without incidents and site clean-up was meticulous and thorough. Baron (and Hector) ~ Call 1st, Respond 1st, Onsite 1st, Quote 1st, Project 1st. Folks ~ Every box you need checked when considering, or hiring,"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

In nature, there are many things that can cause a tree to die, including diseases, insects, and natural disasters such as fires or droughts. Non-natural methods of killing a tree include herbicides or manual intervention, such as cutting it down. Consult a tree removal professional about your options for naturally killing a tree.

Tree removal can be quite expensive, especially for larger projects, but you can use the following tips to help keep costs down:

  • Do the yard cleanup afterward yourself

  • Choose to leave the logs on your property and split them yourself

  • Opt to leave the stump in the ground and tackle stump grinding yourself

  • Pull permits for tree removal, if necessary, to avoid fines

  • Pay to have multiple trees removed at once

  • Remove tree in the late winter or early spring during off-season

Palm tree stumps can take as long as seven to ten years to rot naturally. Whereas some tree stumps rot within a year, palm trees tend to last longer due to their deep root networks. Chemical rotting (described above) can help speed the process up so your palm tree stumps rot in under two months.

Dead trees are dangerous for several reasons. They are structurally compromised and prone to branch or trunk failure, which can pose a significant safety risk to people, vehicles, and nearby structures. Dead trees can also harbor pests like termites, which may spread to other trees or your home. If a tree died from a disease, it could spread the illness to healthy trees. Additionally, the dry wood is highly flammable, increasing fire risk.

You can remove a small tree from your yard if there’s space for the tree to fall, you have the right tools and safety equipment, and you follow a clear plan of action. You’ll just want to follow the steps above carefully, and ideally, you will have experience doing similar tasks. If you have any doubts that you can do this project safely, though, you should hire a pro.
