"When we purchased our house in the Bronx 2 years ago, we interited a large tree that was being choked with years of boston ivy growth. 2 landscapers removed some of the lower vines, but none would tackle removing all the vines which extended about 40/50 feet up the tree. Lenny was the first of 8 tree trimmers Angie recommended who called me (never heard from 6 others) and he came over in 45 minutes to give me an estimate. The price for trimmiing about 10 trees was very reasonable (based on prior experience) and I hired him right away. He came with a crew the next morning and trimmed all the trees & vines, chipped all the leaves and branches and cleaned up the yard. His climber was amazing & they did a fantastic job!! I highly recommend Always Green and will use them again."

"RJR understood the project and what we were looking to accomplish. Rosalio did a thorough walk through with me. He knew the situation we were in with the Spotted Lantern Flies that were feeding on the Athlantus trees in our yard. He made great suggestions from an arborist perspective and worked out a fair estimate for all the different aspects of the job. RJR and crew went right to work immediately and didnâ t stop. They work fast and are completely careful and respectful of the property. The clean up was like nothing took place that day. Every scrap of wood, leaves and branches were removed. I highly recommend RJR for projects that need a specific consideration."

"they removed the tree trunk and branches timely but did not remove the ROOTS that were sticking up out of the concrete which to me would be part of the tree So I have to pay someone else to remove the roots. Also they were removing parts of tree from next door neighbors garden and broke down the fence between us and started carrying those branches out through the ground floor apartment in my building until they were told to stop by my tenant. I would say they did a good job even tho the man in charge went on vacation before the job was finished, but if you use this company be sure every possible event is covered in your agreement"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

Dead trees are dangerous for several reasons. They are structurally compromised and prone to branch or trunk failure, which can pose a significant safety risk to people, vehicles, and nearby structures. Dead trees can also harbor pests like termites, which may spread to other trees or your home. If a tree died from a disease, it could spread the illness to healthy trees. Additionally, the dry wood is highly flammable, increasing fire risk.

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.

In most cases, leaving tree roots underground is not a problem if the stump has been removed or ground below the soil. However, some larger roots may decompose, leaving dents in your soil. Additionally, some aggressive trees, including willows, oaks, elms, maples, and poplars may grow back from roots. Large aggressive trees with established root systems are more likely to grow back.

Hiring an arborist or tree surgeon is usually more expensive than a standard tree company, but it is often worth the investment. Arborists have education and certifications that standard companies typically lack, leading to a more professional, expert-level service. Their expertise is particularly valuable for diseased or infested trees, as they can ensure safer removal and help prevent the issue from spreading. Additionally, arborists may be necessary for work near power lines, as uncertified companies are often not permitted to service these trees. If your goal is to preserve the health of your trees, an arborist is the best choice. Their services, such as stump grinding, are also performed with greater expertise to ensure a safe depth that won't cause your lawn to collapse over time.
