"Once again, my Dynamic Duo came through for me! I had a beloved tree that had to come down. Michelle was very supportive of my feelings about losing this tree and explained to me (again) why it was necessary. Randy and his crew did a fabulous job, protecting the house, other trees, etc. Great care was taken with taking down the very large tree. They cleaned up after they were done, as well. I would definitely say if you have any tree work done, call Limb it Up!"

"I hired Precision Tree Solutions to remove a huge Bradford Pear tree from my front yard. The tree had large branches over the house and over the driveway. Jacob replied quickly and provided me with a fair estimate. Jacob and his team arrived on time and got straight to work. They smoothly and quickly removed the tree and the stump. When I saw how much work was involved; I realized what a good price I was charged. Thank you to Jacob and the Precision Tree Solutions crew!"

"If you are looking to have stumps removed, look no further than Carolina Tree Service. I needed 11 stumps removed! Super Stump Man, Larry Wallace came out and he initially said, he would remove some of them that day and come back at a later date to remove the others. However, he removed all eleven stumps in record time! In my book, he is the superhero of stump removal, period."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Unfortunately, palm tree stumps are one of the most difficult types to remove due to how their roots grow. Unlike other trees, palm tree roots grow horizontally and vertically. Palm tree roots grow as deep as three feet into the ground, although soil and growing conditions could mean they go as far as 50 inches into the earth. 

If you want to be able to repurpose the grass in the area where you removed a stump later, you’ll have to dig quite deep—and perhaps wide—to trim away all the roots.

Tree removal can be quite expensive, especially for larger projects, but you can use the following tips to help keep costs down:

  • Do the yard cleanup afterward yourself

  • Choose to leave the logs on your property and split them yourself

  • Opt to leave the stump in the ground and tackle stump grinding yourself

  • Pull permits for tree removal, if necessary, to avoid fines

  • Pay to have multiple trees removed at once

  • Remove tree in the late winter or early spring during off-season

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.

A tree branch should start to form roots in about three months. It can take about a year for a tree branch to develop roots strong enough to go in the ground. For best results, start several branches because, no matter how closely you follow instructions, they won’t all form roots. Compost any that aren’t thriving.

The recovery time for pruning depends on how much you prune, the species of tree, and how well you care for it afterward. All trees grow new wood and often sprout additional branches after pruning. Ideally, trees should recover from normal pruning after one or two years. Heavy pruning or slow-growing trees may take several years to fully recover.
