"Power Tree Removal removed my yard tree, which was infringing on 3 of my neighbors yards. It was a mulberry which stood about 2 stories high. They did it safely and efficiently. The crew were well supervised and all extremely diligent. I gave a few instructions to Alex and Sammy, and I didn't need to tell them twice. I even hugged Davey at the end. Power Tree was communicative, timely, respectful and hard working. All the boxes you would want checked when hiring a contractor, they check. One of my best experiences in hiring a contractor. I highly recommend."
"Couldn't be more satisfied great job truly professionals cut down the tree cleaned everything up and even cut down an old tree stump If anyone needs work done thse are the guys"
"They accomplished everything that I explained I wanted done. The cleanup was very efficient and neatly done. I would definitely recommend this company."
"Francisco was very fast in his response to my initial query. He came right on time and did exactly what I asked - removed a dead tree from the pot and replanted with another plant, as well as a few other things around the yard. Very pleased."
"This is a great company. They gave a reasonable quote. They showed up early. Everyone was professional. The only thing I would recommend is that Jose keep working on speaking English. I was not convinced that he understood the nuances of our conversation. I would highly recommend this company. Great work, they were not on time but EARLY which is a BIG plus, professional staff. I will use them going forward and also recommend this company to my friends."
"This crew is amazing! My uncle needed to have a tree removed from our backyard... I'm talking HUGE with many of the biggest limbs leaning over our neighbors house. He came over right away and gave a reasonably priced quote. I discussed it with my uncle and decided to go ahead and use his services. He removed this tree in two days, even with it being some of the hottest days its been in a while! His whole crew was extremely kind and they made sure to clean up very carefully after they were done. They even took a look at my broken car when they noticed me filling my radiator with water! We were thrilled with the services this crew gave us and would recommend them to anyone. "
"The two man crew ensured, through communications with company management and with the homeowners, that they understood the job. Clean up was excellent. Price was very fair considering the time spent, initially, by the Arborist and by the two man crew."
"We needed 4 very large trees on our property removed. Julio was extremely accommodating, as we were late getting back to our house for the estimate meeting. He was very knowledgeable, and was very detailed in his estimate. The pricing was also extremely competitive. We only ended up having two of the trees dropped, but the work was impeccable. Julio and his team were punctual, extremely well prepared and very professional. Both trees, stumps and all of the wood were removed in one day, and the cleanup was excellent. We are extremely satisfied with the work and will almost definitely contract them again in the future."
Though summer is not ideal, you can do some light pruning during this time of year. Just make sure it’s not excessive. Vigorous pruning will stress the tree and impact next year’s growth. Generally, August to September are the best summer-pruning months, particularly for fruit trees.
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.
It depends on the type of tree. Typically, late spring on the cusp of winter is ideal for trees about to emerge from dormancy and produce new buds. That said, late fall is ideal for certain deciduous trees prone to bleeding sap. Avoid trimming trees in early spring, when they’re prone to disease.
The best tools for tree removal include a chainsaw for large trees, an ax for notching and cutting down small trees, and a wedge to help control the direction a tree falls in. A hatchet can be useful for very small trees, but won’t be effective for medium to large trees.
Using vinegar to kill tree roots is just one of the clever ways to use vinegar around the house. The method works best when you apply vinegar as directly to the root system as possible. For example, if the old tree roots and stump are currently exposed, drill holes in the tops of the roots and pour undiluted white vinegar into the holes to soak into the plant. Remember that vinegar can kill the surrounding grass and plants should it pour over the edge.
