"Adrian and his team showed up on time every day and worked tirelessly until the job was done. Ours was a big job with lots of big trees, but Adrian kept his promise to do it right and leave the area looking beautiful and clean. He has all the equipment to take out the trees, remove the trunks and haul it away. Everyone was polite and completely professional. I was very impressed."

"Their communication skills were top-notch--they clearly stated what they could do for me, what they strongly advised against (tree topping), explained their decisions and delivered in everything (and then some). - clearly explained what trees needed trimmed up, why, and what ones even needed removed - proceeded to trim accordingly, removed the two poor trees, and even trimmed one down to desired specifications to be used as a part of a fence - even swept off my roof from debris from their cutting--and even cleared some moss that was up there Exceptional service, highly recommended, 5/5 all around!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

You should avoid cutting off the top of mature cherry trees. This process is called tree topping, and it’s not recommended for cherry trees—or any trees, for that matter. Tree topping removes between one-third to half of the length of the tree trunk, resulting in structurally unsound, fruitless suckers. The only exception is for saplings. Young pie, sour, and tart cherry trees that are over 30 inches tall in the fall or winter before the tree blooms can benefit from heading cuts.

Ensures complete removal and mitigates risks of underground root damage.

Some fast-acting products can rot a tree stump in four to six weeks. Keep in mind, these products contain harsh chemicals that may prevent regrowth in the area. Other products, like fertilizer that contains lots of nitrogen, can enhance the process and rot a stump in about a year. (This is compared to the ten years it can take naturally for a stump to rot.)

Not every arborist climbs trees, but most will do so if that’s the best method for assessing or treating a tree. Arborists have a variety of tree climbing gear and safety equipment to choose from when climbing trees. Consult your local arborist about their tree-climbing plan if your service requires that type of task.
