"Tree services went extremely well. Workers were not only polite and helpful but kept me updated on when they were coming and were accommodating when I asked for a few extra things to be done. Both my next door neighbors were so impressed they had them stop by to give them estimates and hired them too. As a bonus MigeI is a tree climber so no heavy equipment needed to tear up your lawn. They were also considerate and did not walk through my plantings but walked way around. I would highly recommend and will use them again."

"The owner was friendly, on time and did an excellent job. He took out the stump, made sure he got all of the stump and roots and cleaned up after himself. We would recommend there company to grind a stump to anyone. Thanks for a job well done."

"Jerry responded less than an hour after I posted the job and I had an incredibly fair quote an hour after that. Jerry and his crew took down a very large cottonwood tree in our yard. They were right on time they communicated the process in a cohesive and very understandable way. They were careful not to hurt the lawn. They worked incredibly hard and finish the job in about five hours. I would highly recommend this company. You would be doing yourself a disservice if you didn’t give them a call."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

If you’re looking to rot a tree stump fast, potassium nitrate will work far quicker than copper nails. First, drill several holes into the stump using a power drill, then pour potassium nitrate pellets into the holes. Next, add water to help the chemical absorb into the wood, thoroughly soaking the stump to ensure the pellets dissolve and spread evenly. Afterward, cover the stump with a tarp to retain moisture and block sunlight, then place mulch on top to secure it in place.

Before you cut down a dead palm tree, try to revive it using the methods listed above. However, there are instances when it makes sense to remove a dead palm tree, including:

  • The heavily infected tree will infect nearby trees, bushes, and plants.

  • The palm’s roots are overtaking your yard, foundation, and sidewalk and causing structural damage.

  • The tree is unstable and a hazard to your property, your neighbor’s property, and pedestrians.

Yes, you can prune a palm tree with a chainsaw, but a chainsaw is overkill for a job like this. You risk damaging the tree if you make a bad cut. More commonly, you’ll need pruning shears or a serrated knife to trim a palm tree, or you can use a specialized pruning saw instead of a chainsaw.

If you aren’t sure what you’re doing, be very careful when cutting mature tree roots (roots larger than 2 inches). Root cutting and pruning can affect both a tree’s stability and its ability to nourish itself. Issues during root cutting can result in damage or injury. 

It’s recommended you call in a pro to help, unless it’s a very small tree and you aren’t worried about the prospect of losing the tree.
