"Jason and his crew worked efficiently and quickly to take down our 50 + foot tree. They cleaned up and barely knew they had been here. We are having them come back to trim out a few other trees on the property. Great to work with, we would definitely recommend them for your project!!"

"Great experience working with Samuel and Alberto. I had them check some bushes on both of the Lansdowne entrances signs that developed mold, and they handled everything professionally from start to finish. The bushes were large (around 8 ft) with big stumps, and they removed them carefully and efficiently. Fair pricing and helped with the cracked left the edge on the neighborhood sign. Highly recommend."

"Garden of Eva did a great job transforming my yard to a much nicer looking area. The guys who were here, Scottie, etc were very friendly and answered all my questions. The only thing I would suggest is perhaps a handout with instructions on what and how to water and how often.. Good service over all and especially letting me pay in installment plan. Thannks."

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.

Any tree that needs to be pruned should be pruned to remove dead branches at least once a year. You may need to prune far more often if you’re trying to maintain a certain shape or to save a tree that suddenly becomes infected.

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.

Costs range from $500 to $5,000 per tree, depending on size, location, and accessibility.

While it’s best to have access to large, healthy, strong trees in a safe position, treehouse living is still possible without them. Contractors can fit tree posts to build the structure onto or use posts as additional support alongside the trees themselves. If you’re in doubt about the suitability of the trees on your land, consult with a local treehouse builder before you start the project.
