"Phoenix Tree Service is very professional, they removed 3 trees and trimmed branches that were over the house. They also cleaned the roof from all debris which was marvelous. Victor is always on time and if something happens he keep us informed. They left my yard cleaned and shredded all small branches and I am really happy with everything they do and would recommend them to anyone. Each crew member is so nice and I noticed as they work everything is completed with safety in mind."

"We have a very small house next door to our house. The roof began leaking badly and we hired Chris to replace the old roof, based on our previous experience with his work cleaning up storm damaged trees. My past positive experience with metal roofing resulted in my contracting with him to install a new metal roof on the small house. The crew showed up on our schedule. They quickly removed the old shingles, tore down an old damaged chimney and replaced all of the water damaged roof sheathing. When the metal roofing was delivered they wasted no time in starting the install. Despite frequent showers and storms they worked whenever conditions permitted. They identified some problems with the roof of a small porch and replaced that roof with architectural grade shingles. Throughout, they were diligent, courteous, professional and conscientious in their work. The day after the job was completed they completely cleaned up the consideable mess involved in a job of this scale. Recommended!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Yes, forestry mulching can grind stumps, but the level of effectiveness depends on the equipment used. Drum mulchers can break down smaller stumps, but larger or deep-rooted stumps may require a dedicated stump grinder for complete removal. If full stump removal is necessary for replanting or construction, additional excavation may be needed. Always check with your forestry mulching provider to confirm whether they offer stump grinding and if their equipment is suitable for your specific needs.

Trees naturally want to grow upward, so one may straighten all by itself, though this only comes into play when a tree is leaning just a small amount. For trees growing into an awkward position or those leaning heavily in one direction, the above steps are necessary to ensure the tree gets back on the right path. This also holds true for trees planted in a spot with unstable soil.

Rock salt or Epsom salt can damage and kill tree roots over several weeks and can even assist in removing the tree's stump. However, you need to drill holes or cut into the stump and surface tree roots to inject them properly with the salt. Repeat the process every two weeks until the roots visibly rot away.

No. Topping a tree refers to severely cutting down all its major branches and tree in a straight line. It was once recommended for streetside deciduous trees but has fallen out of practice. Topping leads to many problems, removing so much of the tree that many trees struggle to survive and become much more vulnerable to insects and diseases. Also, it doesn’t really help tree growth as once assumed and often leads to an ugly appearance of many sprouting stems in competition to become new main branches.

Late winter is ideal, but if you’re pruning apple trees in the spring, prune them as early as possible in the season. You want to ensure your tree is just creeping out of dormancy and hasn’t started pushing out new growth. If you prune your tree too late into spring, you generally won’t see results until the following year.

That said, there’s no pruning season for unhealthy growth. Remove dead, dying, or diseased branches as soon as you notice them, regardless of the time of year.
