"Hunter and his crew were great! They took out about eight big trees in one day? Size them all up and hauled them all off too! Showed up when he said he was going to show up. The kid?s got a big heart and a strong back. I would certainly have them do more work for me."

"Price quoted was double that of local competitors. That said, he was driving 30 miles to do the job, was very knowledgeable and professional, with great attention to detail. If there's any problem with my selected contractor, Ritzco Tree Care will get the job in spite of the price. All local tree services' prices were in the same ball park, about half of Ritzco. That might just be Waynesville contractors trying to keep Rolla contractors away. Ritzco's price was very close to what I expected for a licensed, insured, certified trees service employing at least one arborist. If that proves to not be true, as mentioned, I'll cancel the local contract and move to Ritzco."

"We hired Smith’s Land Development to regrade the entrance to our commercial storage facility and address drainage problems. Jesse, the owner, performed the work himself and did an outstanding job. He was knowledgeable, straightforward, and completed the project as agreed. The grading and drainage improvements have made a noticeable difference in both functionality and appearance. High-quality work and professional service. Would definitely recommend."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

In most cases, leaving tree roots underground is not a problem if the stump has been removed or ground below the soil. However, some larger roots may decompose, leaving dents in your soil. Additionally, some aggressive trees, including willows, oaks, elms, maples, and poplars may grow back from roots. Large aggressive trees with established root systems are more likely to grow back.

It can be bad to leave a dead stump in the ground. A stump becomes a hefty piece of dead wood in time and eventually (especially with the help of rain) starts to rot. That makes it a locus point for diseases and pesky insects, as well as a bit of an eyesore. It’s best to remove a tree stump completely before it starts to decay, especially before it starts to fall apart. If the tree was removed because of disease, it’s even more important to fully remove the stump if possible.

Yes, carefully prune back dead branches—don’t wait for pruning season. This helps keep your maple tree healthy and also helps prevent large branches from falling unexpectedly. Don’t seal the cut branch—trees can naturally take care of these wounds—but be sure to remove any source of fungus or pest infestation to help save the tree.

Generally, you do not have the right to take fruit from a neighbor's tree, even if the branches overhang your property. The fruit is considered the property of the tree's owner. While you may have the right to trim branches that cross into your yard, the fruit on them typically still belongs to your neighbor. However, laws can vary by state and municipality. In some areas, branches that extend into your yard or trees that straddle a property line may entitle you to some of the fruit. The best course of action is to speak with your neighbor, as they may be happy to share. If a conversation is not possible, check your local regulations before picking any fruit.

Tree roots are hearty and complex systems, so they don’t die immediately after the rest of the tree is removed. If you leave the root system in place, it takes anywhere from two to seven years for it to run out of nutrients. It is worth noting, however, that the roots stop growing and expanding after cutting down the rest of the tree.
