"Rivetts Tree Service went above and beyond what I had imagined! I canâ t recommend them enough - and they will be our go-to tree service company from here on out! First off, I had not planned well for their arrival.. but before I could even get my shoes on, the crew were moving all our â lawn ornamentsâ (aka garbage cans, grills, lawn chairs, toys, and even heavy objects I wasnâ t able to move myself!) without complaint! Matter of fact, they were so easy to talk to - we were laughing together by the time it was cleared! When we hired Rivetts Tree Service, we had planned for the removal of a very large tree between lot lines. However, when I talked with the crew about my concerns/questions of removal vs trimming, they listened intently and were so so informative! After 20 minutes of us talking â treesâ (yes, 20 minutes!), we decided to trim the large tree (yay!!). They were so flexible with the change of plans - and Iâ m so grateful! Now, this is the cherry on top! After they had beautifully trimmed our large tree, I asked Justin (lead crew) for a quote of more tree removal/trimming on our lot. We walked around the yard for at least ten minutes! He diagnosed our plum tree, made winter plans for our oak, and gave info/opinions about my ideas. (Have I mentioned how great Rivetts Tree Service is?!) Once we decided on a plan, Justin tells me they will COME BACK (they were already loaded to head to another site!)- SAME DAY! Itâ s the day after having Rivetts Tree Service at our home, and I canâ t stop looking at our newly trimmed trees! I love them! Rivetts Tree Service is truly the best out there - they are informative, talented, courteous, go out of their way, and I very seriously had a great time learning from them! If you are in need of tree service, Rivetts Tree Service is the place! You will not be disappointed!"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Lightning can cause massive damage, fires, and openings for other threats like bugs or fungal diseases. Barring any large fires or explosions, it’s difficult to tell how much damage a lightning strike has done until after a thorough inspection. Contact local authorities immediately if lightning strikes a tree in your yard and it causes a fire or explosion.

The best time to prune Japanese flowering cherry trees depends on where you live and the type of flowering cherry tree. Some trees benefit from being pruned toward the end of winter or early spring, after the last freeze. Meanwhile, other trees do well after blooming, in late spring or early summer. Avoid pruning your flowering cherry tree in the early winter, as this encourages open wounds that can lead to infections or infestations. 

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.

Using Epsom salt to kill a tree stump typically takes between six and 12 months. While this may seem like a long time, it is significantly faster than the natural decomposition process, which can take up to seven years. This method is a viable DIY option for stumps that do not pose an immediate hazard. If you need a faster solution, you can hire a professional for stump removal or grinding, though this may cause more damage to the surrounding ground.

Trees aren't big fans of moving, and they do go into shock during a transplant. Although most carefully thought-out tree transplants see the tree recover from the shock just fine, there is always a risk of having an unsuccessful move. Proper preparation, timing, and diligent aftercare are crucial to minimize the risks when transplanting a tree.
