"Jerry did an amazing job trimming a very tall tree in my backyard. The tree was located behind my garage, so he had to climb it. I'd recommend his services to anyone looking for this line of work."

"Prompt arrival and very Professional. Nice to see a young adult so attentive to details, safety and professionalism. He set up fence guards around the area which I found impressive. After completing and cleaning up he added too soil and seed. Pretty soon there was no evidence of a stump! Very Pleased"

"Adam and his crew were professional and efficient. I had requested a quote to have 5 trees removed from my residential property. Some of the trees were in close proximity to my home (and an adjacent apartment building), and were overhanging my roof. I also had a short timeframe in which I needed the work done. Adam provided me with a competitive quote. The work was completed on time and to my complete satisfaction. I would highly recommend P&R Tree and Landscaping."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Whether you should remove the roots of a dead tree depends on whether they’re damaging nearby areas. For instance, if the roots continue to grow near sidewalks, driveways, or the foundation of your home, they can cause damage. If you want to plant something else in that spot, removing the roots can make it easier for the new tree or plant to grow.

You may need permission to take a tree down. Check with your local ordinances about rules regarding tree removal and to gain any necessary permits. Check with your local ordinances or the fire department if you plan to burn the stump. Make sure you have all the steps in place before removing the tree, or contact a local tree removal service.

If you’re planning on keeping the tree, unless the roots are invasive, there’s no need to remove them, as doing so can cause damage to the tree. If the tree has been cut down and the stump and roots are left, grinding and removing the stump can cause root decay for some species. For other species, the stump and roots will need to be removed to prevent pests, disease, and possible tree regrowth.

Carefully pruning small roots no thicker than three inches in diameter won’t harm the tree. However, cutting larger roots may impact the tree's stability and nutrient absorption. It's advisable to consult an arborist or tree care professional to evaluate the root's size, the tree's health, and the potential impact of cutting. Proper tree pruning techniques and timing can minimize damage, but larger root removal may necessitate expert guidance to avoid compromising the tree's overall health and stability.

Coverage varies quite a bit by policy, but most homeowners' insurance policies will cover $500 to $1,000 of the cost of removing a tree. Additionally, if your tree causes damage to your property, like your house, many policies will cover some or all of the costs to repair the damage, depending on why the tree fell.
