"Franco’s tree service cut down 2 trees for me and i am more than satisfied with the work they did. From start to finish they were fantastic. Anthony came out to give me my initial quote and was very professional and courteous and his quote was very fair for the work that needed to be done. After accepting the quote Franco’s continued to be very professional by keeping in contact as far as when they would do the work . On the day they did the work Anthony was there to insure his crew knew exactly what needed to be done. The crew was there on time and went right to work. The crew was very hardworking and courteous and completed the job quickly and cleaned up as if they were never even there. I highly recommend Franco’s for their tree services use them and you’ll be happy too!"

"An excellent tree service company. Highly recommended. First, the owner stopped by to see the job. He was courteous and prompt. He provided a quote that same day. The price was very reasonable. On the scheduled date the team arrived and once again we reviewed the project in detail. In a matter of a few hours, they were done and they left the entire front yard clean. The entire team was courteous as well and they were respectful of the property. I will definitely use them again!"

"Chris @ CC responded quickly to my estimate request, came out to estimate quickly, and his crew came out as soon as time allowed to perform the work. The workers did a great job of removing the trees, grinding the stumps, and cleaning up. I was impressed with the time they took to setup & remove equipment in a way that minimized any damage to my lawn. Chris is very responsive and good to work with. I am glad I went with CC!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Burning a tree stump can be effective, but it comes with safety considerations and isn’t always best for every situation. It's essential to check local regulations and assess the safety risks involved. Stumps that are near wooden structures or other non-moveable flammable objects aren’t good candidates for burning due to the risk of the fire spreading. Alternatives like grinding or a DIY stump rotting project might be safer and quicker for getting the job done.

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.

Whether tree roots will continue to grow after a tree has been cut down depends on the species. Some tree roots will eventually die because they can no longer get nutrients through photosynthesis. However, other species that reproduce through root sprouts can continue to grow and produce new sprouts for seven years or more. For example, the roots of elms, ficus, and willows tend to regrow aggressively, while the roots of pines, oaks, and maples will typically die. To determine if a root system is still active, look for new sprouts on the old trunk, stump, or any exposed roots.

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.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.
