"I purchased the elite program.I liked receiving the tag in my yard saying they were there and services were performed. However, there were a couple months I did not receive this tag and wondered if they actually showed up. I do have new grass coming in where the crabgrass was killed so I will see in the spring on whether I will rehire or not."

"PME tree service is a highly competent, highly professional and extremely knowledgeable tree service. What I like the most is that they do not cut down trees just to cut down trees to make money. The example being that I had two trees to be addressed. One for sure was dead or would be shortly (turned out to be dead) and one I thought was dangerous. PME's arborist explained to me that the tree (completely healthy by the way), Was not dangerous and should not be cut down. They could have simply cut it down and doubled my cost and their profit. That is why I trust them completely, would not have anyone else touch my trees."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

You can use herbicides to prevent roots from growing without killing the tree itself, however they must be used with caution. Systemic herbicides are absorbed by the root and can kill off problematic roots. However, herbicides can sometimes negatively impact nearby plants, so the solution is best used sparingly.

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.

A standard tree removal doesn’t include stump grinding. If you want your contractor to remove your tree and grind the stump, you must pay an extra charge. That said, you’ll likely save on the cost of stand-alone service—especially if it’s a small tree and they can finish both jobs in a single trip.

Stay inside or well away until the storm passes. Don’t go outside to inspect the tree until the weather clears, especially if the tree is on a hill or isolated in a field. Lightning often strikes the same easily-accessed places multiple times, and you could be a new target. If a lightning strike causes a noticeable fire, alert emergency services. When the storm is over, take a closer look to gauge the damage done.
