"Very pleased with this contractor and the cost and quality of their work. Upgraded my panel to 200 Amp service, split an overloaded circuit, and ran a line set for an HVAC project. Max and his team are real pros. The cost estimate was fair and accurate. After initial review of the project, we made a few changes on job day, and these were accomplished with zero problems. Their coordination with the electric co-op was also flawless and the job was accomplished on time and within the cost estimate. They even gave me a $100 credit for the removed 100 Amp panel. I plan to hire them again to wire an existing out building on my property. If you need electrical work, call them!"

"Vinc and his crew were exceptional in the work performed and their interaction with us. There were at least seven guys here and they were all friendly and polite. The site manager Kane is exceptional. The best that I can say about this company is I plan for them to do other work for me on near future."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

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.

In general, trees should be planted no closer than 15 to 20 feet from your foundation. For larger trees with far-reaching roots like maples, oaks, or poplars, a good guide is to plant as many feet from your home as the tree’s height is expected to reach at maturity. Some trees, like elms and willows, should only be planted far from where their roots may encounter sewer or water lines.

Cutting down a dead tree is always strongly advisable. Aside from being an eyesore, a dead tree can be extremely hazardous, especially when it’s near people or structures. Even if the tree isn’t near your home, it can still harbor pests and diseases that can potentially spread to nearby plants and homes.

The safest way to cut down a tree is to make sure you’re completely prepared and have done all the necessary safety checks, including double-checking your equipment is in good working order, you have plenty of clearance to fell the tree, you’re wearing all the safety gear, and you have a partner to help you (who should also be wearing safety gear).
