""Great Crew!" Thanks Charles, for the work that was done on my trees. The guys showed up and after a brief conversation reiterating what was to be done and pricing they started the job. They were quick and very professional did exactly what needed to be done. Team cleaned up after the job and left my yard looking better than they found it. "Overall it was a fantastic experience, and I would most highly/definitely recommend WoodChuck Tree Services to anyone needing tree work done.""

"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 FAQs, answered by experts

You can hire a professional arborist or tree removal service to cut down a tree to ensure safety, prevent property damage, and comply with all the local regulations. It’s highly advisable to always hire a professional, as tree removal can be extremely dangerous, especially for large or damaged trees. Certified arborists or tree removal experts have the proper equipment, training, and insurance to do the job safely and efficiently. They can also handle cleanup, stump removal, and obtaining the necessary permits.

You can trim just one side of the tree, especially when that side is growing near something like a power line or a home. Pros will carefully trim the tree back until it is safe from that structure. While this is common, it also needs to be done with the utmost care, as pruning or trimming away at one side of the tree may make it structurally unsound. This instance is yet another where hiring a pro is wise, especially if power lines are involved.

If you don’t trim your palm trees, you can expect several negative outcomes, including:

  • Unhealthy palm trees attract pests, diseases, and fungi 

  • Dead falling fronds can cause severe injury or damage to your home, pedestrians, or cars

  • Dead palm branches are flammable and can catch fire, especially during a lightning storm

Tree roots are hearty and complex systems, so they don’t die immediately after the rest of the tree is removed. If you leave the root system in place, it takes anywhere from two to seven years for it to run out of nutrients. It is worth noting, however, that the roots stop growing and expanding after cutting down the rest of the tree.

Generally, if your neighbor’s tree hangs over your yard, you can legally trim overhanging branches. Keep in mind that you cannot cross your property line to cut the trees, and if you damage the tree by trimming it, your neighbor could sue you. Depending on the type of tree and value, this could mean dishing out two to three times the value of the tree.

It’s worth noting that the specifics of this type of tree maintenance and the guidelines around it may vary by location. Do your research and, most importantly, consult with your neighbor.
