Why is it not okay to cut down trees?

• <div><p>Trees provide many benefits, including shade, habitat for local wildlife, and cleaner air, so it’s always a good idea to try an alternative strategy like <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/tree-trimming-crown-reduction-versus-tree-topping.htm">crown reduction</a> before you chop one down.

Q: Do arborists climb trees?

• <div><p>Not every arborist climbs trees, but most will do so if that&rsquo;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. </p></div>

Q: How long will it take to grind a tree stump with a stump grinder?

• <div><p>It will take you anywhere from 15 minutes to two hours per tree stump to grind and remove the stump from the ground. The larger the size, the longer it will take to remove the stump. Also, keep in mind that rocky soil may require <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/excavation-companies/">local excavation services</a> to loosen up large boulders before you can begin to remove the tree stump.</p></div>

Q: What are the benefits of professional tree removal?

• <div><p>Professionals ensure safety, prevent property damage, and handle debris efficiently.</p></div>

Q: How does vinegar kill ivy on trees?

• <div><p>White vinegar does not kill ivy on trees because its acetic acid concentration is not high enough to overpower it. Vinegar is an effective herbicide for weeds and other plants, but not for the strength of most ivies, including poison ivy and English ivy. You should use an herbicide to kill ivy, such as one with glyphosate, imazapyr, or triclopyr.</p></div>

He did exactly what he said he would do. Ended up having to scrap out part of what was not in the estimate and he took care of all of it. He was very clean. A very positive experience. I have already referred him to others.
