"I hired Limb It Up because they were very knowledgeable concerning tree and shrub trimming AND the have a PhD Botanist on staff who also came out and provided guidance on shrub care for several of my very mature and now somewhat struggling plants. I?ve now had my trees pruned and I?m hiring them for shrub care as well. The trees they cut were done quickly and efficiently and debris was removed with the added benefit of my front yard being blown free of leaves! I can tell the job done on the trees is a professional one because I am a long time farmer?s daughter and gardener, and I look forward to seeing the trees become healthier and more beautiful over the next few seasons. I highly recommend this company for tree and shrub work."

"Vincent and his crew did an amazing job. They worked quickly, dilligently, safetly and above all expertly. They checked in numerous times throughout the project to assure my satisfaction with each tree. I was most impressed by the clean up, they left my yard better than it was when they arrived. I was thoroughly impressed and have already recommended them to neighbors who asked about the work."

"Jose and his professional crew did a great job removing a large Pecan tree and then entirely removing the stump so a detached garage could be built in the same location as the tree. They were prompt and did an excellent job including all clean up. Their price was also better than other quotes. I would hire them again for any tree service."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

While there is a lot of debate about whether boiling water is strong enough to kill tree roots, it is not best to remove the roots from large, old trees. You may be able to weaken young roots enough to remove them manually, but boiling water will likely not do the trick for large root systems.

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.

You should plant trees at least 15 to 20 feet away from your house, and more if the tree will grow large and spread its limbs. Trees pose several dangers to houses when planted too close. They can litter the roof with leaves and branches, create fire hazards, make a ladder for larger pests, and even damage the foundation as their roots grow.

For safety reasons, leaning trees are best removed by a professional, as they may often tear away from the hinge, causing you to lose control over where the tree falls. If you choose to cut down a tree leaning slightly, avoid cutting off root protrusions before you start. Make your hinge a little longer than usual by cutting it deeper (up to 30% of the diameter) and applying a wedge into the felling cut on the side the tree is leaning. Stand away from the direction the tree leans while making your felling cut.

Transporting a fully-grown tree requires heavy equipment, typically specialized for the task. A tree spade is a truck-mounted tool that removes the tree from the ground in one location, transports it, and places it in a new hole in a new location. A combination of mechanized shovels and lifts is necessary to move very large trees, and the exact tools often depend on location and the surrounding area.
