"I reached out on Angie website back on March 29th to find someone that could trim/cut my hedges. Tom called me, we scheduled a date and time to check the hedges that needed to be cut. He gave me a good price. Told me he would come within a week or 2. Ok no problem. April 28th I texted Tom to see if I was still on schedule. He informed on April 29th that i was on schedule, but with all the rain we had for a couple of days pushed him back, he will reach out to me mid week. Ok no problem. May 8th sent another text because he never texted or called me to give me an actual date. No response now its May 12th. It only took communication to let me know that you are still coming to do the work. Not good customer service or business when you can't respond back. Now I'm back to square one."

Leaf Removal questions, answered by experts

The felling notch you make before you make the final cut will determine which way the tree will fall. The cut will be in a wedge or triangle, and the tree will fall from the highest point of the triangle. You can use this, as well as the process described above, to estimate where a tree will fall. 

A stump grinder can cause damage if it’s used improperly. These are large, powerful saw tools that need careful handling even when not in use. When used improperly or when the sawblade misses the mark, it can easily damage your lawn, walkways, nearby flower borders and delicate borders. That’s why it’s important to use stump grinders carefully and to contact a professional if you don’t feel up to the task.

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.

Stump grinding leaves the stump and roots below the grinding depth intact, though they will gradually decay over the next decade. You can grow plants with shallow roots, such as grass, over the remaining pieces of your now-deceased tree. However, you should wait until they fully decay to plant anything with a larger root system.

Unfortunately, palm tree stumps are one of the most difficult types to remove due to how their roots grow. Unlike other trees, palm tree roots grow horizontally and vertically. Palm tree roots grow as deep as three feet into the ground, although soil and growing conditions could mean they go as far as 50 inches into the earth. 

If you want to be able to repurpose the grass in the area where you removed a stump later, you’ll have to dig quite deep—and perhaps wide—to trim away all the roots.
