"Great work and great customer service! The price was very fair and economical too. I felt the entire time that I was being treated honestly. Dale also was a great communicator to hear what I was wanting, and also to suggest options that I might not have known about. All of his suggestions were always intended for a great final product that all of us would be happy with.. I learned about Daleâ s quality work for another personâ s large retaining wall project that was impressive and beautiful. My project was smallâ ¦but still turned out beautiful too. Also involved were removal of 4 huge tree stumps. That work was also done skillfully and the holes filled and ground surface properly cleaned. Dale does a lot of other types of work, and we would be very glad to select Dale for any service he provides. I highly recommend!"

"Outstanding! Not only were they here the day following my request for a quote, but they also were able to do the job within a week of my go-ahead. I then changed me mind about stump removal the day after they took down the tree and they came back that same day and completed my other request. OUTSTANDING SERVICE and the kicker is that they were lowest bid of 3 different tree service companies in the area!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Tree experts don’t advise against digging through tree roots, but instead encourage caution and consultation with a local arborist to make sure you don’t damage the tree’s structure or interrupt its water or nutrient intake. An arborist can recommend specific practices when digging and help prune the roots or dig a trench for utilities with a tool that can remove soil without touching the tree’s roots.

While the trees in your backyard are good for the environment and look beautiful, they could present a danger to your home under the wrong circumstances. This task is typically beyond the capabilities of the average homeowner due to its dangerous nature, so it’s best to leave this task to a professional. In some cities, it’s even illegal to remove a tree yourself.

A tree can split because of high winds, a change in temperature, or from an infestation or tree disease. All of these factors can overlap, making a single cause difficult to pinpoint. While winter storms are some of the most common causes for a tree to split, it can also happen because of termites or rot.

You can use herbicides to prevent roots from growing without killing the tree itself, however they must be used with caution. Systemic herbicides are absorbed by the root and can kill off problematic roots. However, herbicides can sometimes negatively impact nearby plants, so the solution is best used sparingly.

Absolutely. These steps are significantly easier, too, especially when it comes to preserving the root ball and moving the palm tree. However, you will want to make sure the tree has plenty of fertilizer to establish itself and start growing. Supports may also be more important, as it can take extra time for a potted palm to spread out its roots. If you are transferring a palm to another pot, you’ll want to move up a size or two to a larger pot. Make sure the pot has excellent drainage to keep the palm from getting waterlogged.
