Can all tree roots regrow?

• <div><p>Although many tree roots will continue to grow after the tree has been cut, there are a handful of exceptions to this rule. While species like elms, ficus, and willows have roots that will regrow with a vengeance, pine, oak, and maple roots will die when they’re cut down. If you’re not sure what kind of tree roots you’re dealing with, there’s a simple way to find out. New sprouts on old trunks, stumps, or exposed roots are a sign that the root system is still hard at work. </p></div>

Can you cut down your own tree?

• <div><p>It is possible for you to cut down your own tree, but only take this project on if it’s a small tree and you’re experienced handling a chainsaw. If you need to use a ladder to cut down the tree or tree limbs, it’s too large (and dangerous) for you to remove yourself. </p><p>Hire a pro instead who can safely remove the tree without injury to you, themselves, or your home. Either way, look into tree removal regulations for the state you live in before having a tree removed to ensure it’s not a historic tree or protected by your city.</p></div>

How do I dispose of old shrubs and roots?

• <div><p>If you have a large number of leftover roots, shrub branches, rocks, and soil to remove from your stump removal project, you may need to call a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/junk-removal/">professional junk removal service</a>. A small truckload of <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-junk-removal-cost.htm">junk removal costs</a> between <b>$75 and $125</b> to haul away. You may also have a free composting center in your area where you can haul the materials on your own.</p></div>

Do I have to remove a tree stump?

• <div><p>Unless there’s some sort of rule in your community’s homeowners’ association that requires you to remove a stump, there’s no law that says you have to take it out. If you’re not wedded to the idea of removing it, there are plenty of ways to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/tree-stump-ideas-your-yard.htm">get creative with this tree remnant</a>. Using the stump as the medium for a wood carving or turning it into a planter are just two examples of ways to repurpose a tree stump. </p></div>

Very professional and responsive and courtesy customer service. The two employees were friendly and attentive. They did an amazing job on the kitchen. You may need to remind them of a few things in the bathrooms. Wonderful on removing dust and mopping. Will use them again!

When I asked the provider how long the job would take, he said it would take 3 men a day. The actual job took 2 men one morning. The second problem is that the provider did not say what was likely to be under the tiles, and what to do about it. What was remaining on the concrete floor was a...

Leaf Removal questions, answered by experts

Although many tree roots will continue to grow after the tree has been cut, there are a handful of exceptions to this rule.

Hire a pro instead who can safely remove the tree without injury to you, themselves, or your home. Either way, look into tree removal regulations for the state you live in before having a tree removed to ensure it’s not a historic tree or protected by your city.

Whether it's better to grind or remove a stump depends on your professional tree service’s advice and what you intend for the landscape to look like after removal. Grinding is faster and likely more affordable, but manual removal unearths the root system and leaves the potential for a clean slate for landscape design.

If you have a large number of leftover roots, shrub branches, rocks, and soil to remove from your stump removal project, you may need to call a professional junk removal service. A small truckload of junk removal costs between $75 and $125 to haul away. You may also have a free composting center in your area where you can haul the materials on your own.
