"Justin contacted me immediately after inputting my info into home advisor. I had several items that needed repaired at a rental turnover. Some of the items he repaired were rehanging and repairing a broken door, faucet leak, AC duct work, and electrical issues. All items were completed within 3 days and at a very reasonable price. He was great at communicating with me as well. I will definitely be using him/ Clean cuts in the future. Highly recommend! Carla Lawrence"

"Mike and the team were exceptional. Their professionalism and workmanship exhibited throughout the job from prompt arrival, crane removal of mature trees, stump grinding, and even the end-of-day cleanup. I had incorrectly presumed after their long days work that the 'small' clean-up stuff (small branches, etc) would remain for me/homeowner. NOT SO! They went beyond the 'tree zone' to rid my property of tree debris. I could not be more pleased with the level of service and dedication they exhibited throughout the whole job. WELL DONE! I would not hesitate to use them again."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The fastest ways to remove a tree stump are by grinding it or burning it.

Stump grinding is often the quickest method, with professionals able to chip away a stump and its roots within a single session. You have the option to hire a professional stump removal service or rent a stump grinder to do it yourself. However, it's important to note that these machines can be large, difficult to transport, and dangerous to operate without prior experience. For safety reasons, hiring a local arborist or landscape specialist is often recommended.

Burning is another fast option. Before you begin, check your local burn laws. The process involves drilling holes into the stump, filling them with vegetable oil, and waiting 24 to 48 hours. Afterward, you can add charcoal bricks to the surface and light the fire, which must be attended at all times.

For a more affordable but much slower alternative, you can use potassium nitrate pellets to accelerate the natural decomposition process. This method typically takes four to six months.

The average lifespan of an oak tree is 100 to 300 years, so long as it isn’t impacted by diseases like sudden oak death. Some species will last shorter or longer, depending on where you live.

Tree experts don’t advise against digging through tree roots, but instead encourage caution and consultation with a local arborist to make sure you don’t damage the tree’s structure or interrupt its water or nutrient intake. An arborist can recommend specific practices when digging and help prune the roots or dig a trench for utilities with a tool that can remove soil without touching the tree’s roots.

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.

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.
