"It is hard for me to believe that we are A&E Tree's first Angie's List Review!  What an honor.  These guys did a fantastic job trimming and pruning our overgrown trees.  They have all the equipment you can imagine.  Erik and his crew were amazing, very friendly and polite.  They were very clean and despite all their hard work, they were phenomenal on the cleanup.  This was a major concern for us as we had seen many other tree services contractors in for the quick buck and left a mess.  The pricing was very competitive.  I would recommend A&# tree for all your tree trimming and tree removal / stump removal without hesitation.

"Five persons in crew arrived at appointed time and were very efficient as they worked together to bring down a very tall dying dangerous elm tree in our backyard. near a shed and two fences. no damages to the property! Although we told Carlos we would clean up and keep the wood, they cut and stacked/piled the tree and raked the yards very well, picking up sticks and small branches. All done in 3 hours. Very satisfied with the job done . will recommend Carlos to anyone shopping for this service without reservation."

"They sent a large crew and were very friendly, helpful and after they finished each tree, would ask me to inspect it.  If I wanted more limbs trimmed, they did so willingly.  They cleaned up the area - even the street - and were done amazingly fast, but accomplished all that I asked for.
Adam Brown was easy to work with and responded very quickly after I purchased the deal. He was very honest that it may take longer than usual to do the work because of his workload.  Even though I had a tree down from a lightening strike, I stayed with him, even though he said I could contact Angie's list for a refund if I needed the work done quicker.  As it turned out, it was not a long wait and I am so pleased that I didn't look for someone else.
I have highly recommended this company to various friends in need of dependable and affordable tree serviette.

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Some people prefer to leave or even carve a leftover stump, but we recommend removing it if possible. You can often dig out smaller trunks with a shovel once they have died and dried out. You can have stumps professionally removed, or request a service to grind them down to ground level so they can be replaced with other landscaping or objects.

If you’re planning on keeping the tree, unless the roots are invasive, there’s no need to remove them, as doing so can cause damage to the tree. If the tree has been cut down and the stump and roots are left, grinding and removing the stump can cause root decay for some species. For other species, the stump and roots will need to be removed to prevent pests, disease, and possible tree regrowth.

Yes, many services include stump grinding to eliminate tripping hazards and improve aesthetics.

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.

If you aren’t sure what you’re doing, be very careful when cutting mature tree roots (roots larger than 2 inches). Root cutting and pruning can affect both a tree’s stability and its ability to nourish itself. Issues during root cutting can result in damage or injury. 

It’s recommended you call in a pro to help, unless it’s a very small tree and you aren’t worried about the prospect of losing the tree.
