When should I schedule an arborist to prune my tree?

• <div><p>Ideally, you should wait to prune until trees have gone dormant in late fall to early winter. The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/worst-time-prune-trees.htm">worst times to prune trees</a> are early fall and late summer, as pruning them so close to dormancy makes it difficult for the tree recover before it goes dormant for the season.</p></div>

Q: How long do palm trees live?

• <div><p>A palm tree's lifespan typically ranges from 40 to 100 years, though some species can live much longer. For example, certain types of Date Palm trees can live for over 200 years. The exact longevity of a palm tree is influenced by several factors, including its species, size, climate, and growing conditions. To maximize your palm's lifespan, provide proper care and maintenance, such as ensuring it gets enough sunlight, water, and nutrients, and protecting it from pests and diseases. For expert maintenance tips, consider consulting a professional arborist.</p></div>

Q: Is it okay to leave tree roots in the ground?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re planning on keeping the tree, unless the roots are invasive, there&rsquo;s no need to remove them, as doing so can cause damage to the tree. If the tree has been cut down and the stump and roots are left, grinding and removing the stump can cause root decay for some species. For other species, the stump and roots will need to be removed to prevent pests, disease, and possible tree regrowth.</p></div>

Q: Is moving my tree worth the cost?

• <div><p>You&rsquo;ll have to balance up the cost, the value of the tree (sentimental or otherwise), and the risk factors. An experienced arborist will help you understand whether transplanting is likely to be successful. The cost and hassle of transplanting a large, well-established tree are often not worth it, especially if the species is fast-growing and easy to source. The decision depends on the age and species of the tree, the conditions in the new site location, and how careful the company is when digging out and moving the tree.</p></div>

Q: Do I need a tree surgeon or just a regular tree company?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re taking down a tree that you don&rsquo;t suspect is affected by disease or pests and it&rsquo;s nowhere near your home or other structures, then calling in a tree company should work fine. However, anything more involved means an arborist is a better option. These pros have years of experience with tree removal and can safely take down trees located next to structures, and they have the tools, sanitization equipment, and experience to remove sick or <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-tell-tree-is-dead.htm">dying trees</a> without infecting nearby trees. </p></div>

"Eric responded quickly to my request. The service was scheduled in the same week. Crew was on time. Eric even called to let me know he was a little delayed, which was most appreciated and showed respect for me as a customer. The crew was professional and did an excellent job in removing the trees. The stray Elm trees were also removed at my request. Everything was cleaned up and left very neat. I would definitely hire again and since I have a landscaping project in mind, I will definitely have them perform this work as well."

"D&R did a tremendous job of repairing my cracked and buckled drywall. The quality of work was amazing and even brought his team out during the service to evaluate other work at my residence. Their team was extremely professional, produced high quality results, and was extremely well priced. This was by far my best experience on Angie's List and I highly recommend D&R to anyone who needs work done.
