"We had a big oak tree that was right over our home removed. It was doing a number on our shingles. The two men who removed the tree were very professional. They always cleaned up after themselves. It was amazing to see. I’m trying to add pictures but it won’t let me. Bottom line we were extremely pleased with what they accomplished. Plus they were very respectful."

"Absolutely fantastic. A few of the workers had some idle time while waiting for their truck to return so they trimmed all the dead branches on all the other trees in my large country acreage. Plus removed some bushes that I wanted gone but were not included in my bill. Even ground out the roots on those bushes. All at no extra cost! Clean up was complete. Fast , very friendly even with both dogs, sawed all the trees into fireplace size logs and neatly piled them . So above and beyond what anyone would have expected"

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.

Large, established tree branches won’t grow roots, but if you find a young tree branch that’s less than about a year old, you’ve got a shot. Put it in water or soil as soon as possible for best results. You’ll know the branch is viable if it’s about the thickness of a pencil and has some leaves or needles.

Deciduous shade trees (the type of trees whose leaves fall off in autumn) need to be pruned in late winter—between February and March. That’s because it’s easier to find and remove sick or dead branches when no leaves are present. And wounds close and heal faster in colder temperatures so pruning them at this time also makes them less prone to infection.

Yes, you can hire professionals to move a tree. Arborists and tree transplanting companies specialize in this type of work and use equipment like hydraulic tree spades to safely extract and relocate trees with their root balls intact. Since tree moving is a complex process, especially for larger trees, it’s best left to experts who understand how to protect the tree’s health and ensure the safety of everyone involved.

While it’s best to have access to large, healthy, strong trees in a safe position, treehouse living is still possible without them. Contractors can fit tree posts to build the structure onto or use posts as additional support alongside the trees themselves. If you’re in doubt about the suitability of the trees on your land, consult with a local treehouse builder before you start the project.
