"Set Apart tree service went above. Our expectations from the moment I received the phone call from this company I was treated with respect,. They gave us an honest quote and were able to do the project the very next day they were prompt on their arrival. The job was done at top quality. They went beyond my expectations. I will continue to use the service.. we are having them back out in a few short weeks to remove a couple of sick trees. If you are looking for a top quality and respectful company, this is truly the best company I have worked with in a long time we live in Sagamore Hills ."

"Louis responded promptly to my message to have a tree trimmed and a large lilac bush removed. He gave me a quote for half of what another company quoted .He came the following week as promised and did an excellent job. He cleaned up the yard and hauled everything away.I would definitely hire him again and highly recommend him"

Gave me a few options and explained each one in its entirety so that I was able to choose the option best for me. They did a great job on removing 2 trees that I needed out of my yard. Thank you Cedarwood!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally speaking, you’ll want to avoid flush cuts, which are cuts made as extremely close to the trunk or main branch. These cuts can weaken your tree, lower its natural defense mechanisms, and even cause decay. You’ll also want to avoid tree topping, which is the total removal of the leader and upper main branches of a tree. 

Most pros will advise against either of these methods, which is why hiring a pro is often the best choice when it comes to tree trimming.

If executed correctly your tree should survive after being transplanted to a new spot. However, effective transplanting requires six months, careful root pruning, safe transport to the new location, and replanting in prime soil conditions. You’ll also need an appropriately sized root ball for a complete tree transplant. A good rule of thumb is that, for every inch in diameter, your tree’s root ball needs to be around 11 inches. So a tree with a diameter of six inches needs a root ball of approximately 66 inches.

Tree roots don’t necessarily break through concrete on their own, but they can certainly take advantage of existing cracks, even very small ones. As roots grow, they expand the cracks, making them larger and leading to serious and costly foundation damage. It’s a good idea to have repairs on any foundation cracks you’re concerned about.

Tree roots can take weeks to years to die, depending on the method you use. Chemical herbicides take the least amount of time—typically between three and four weeks—while homemade methods, like covering an old stump with leaves, could take between seven and eight years. If you’re unsure which method to use or how quickly you need to act, consulting with a pro is always a good idea.

All of the tree root removal methods mentioned above are effective on any kind of root, whether it’s still growing or simply needs a gentle nudge to finish decomposing. The only difference is that larger roots tend to be harder to remove and may require multiple chemical treatments as well as manual labor to eradicate.
