"George and his crew were on time and did a great job. When they left the yard looked the same as it was when they got there. They were about 70 feet tall and crew a great job. Would hire them again in a heartbeat and will again this fall for my Bradford tree in front yard."

"I would hire Alfonso's company again without hesitation. As a woman and single parent, the majority of workers I hire have been disrespectful and condescending, and on top of that do not do a good job. Not so with Alfonso and his crew. Hernandez Tree Service was accommodating for my schedule, punctual, and experts in tree removal. I had two dead trees, a fallen large tree and another leaning against a sapling, ready to fall into the neighbors privacy fence. It was a tricky and dangerous job. There were two medium size live trees to cut also, that they cut the trunk so close to the ground, thankfully, that I will not need the stump removed nor can one see the stumps. They did excellent cleanup when done. I highly recommend this company."

"F&M did a fantastic job with removing a massive white oak tree that fell on my yard. They managed to get the job done in two trips due to the severe amount of rainfall we’ve experienced during the last few weeks and they returned afterwards to fill in the tractor tracks with topsoil, grass seed and straw. We are very impressed with their service and professionalism and will recommend them to my friends, neighbors and family. Job well done! Thanks F&M."

"I had a great experience working with Markeith Boyd for tree removal. He was professional, reliable, and got the job done efficiently. He showed up on time, explained everything clearly, and made sure the work area was cleaned up afterward. The whole process was smooth, and the pricing was fair for the quality of work. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for tree removal services."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

Not all leaning trees are dangerous, but they can be a hazard as gravity may eventually cause them to fall. A key factor is whether the lean is new or has been present for a long time. Trees that have grown with a lean for years are not typically an immediate danger, but a sudden lean is a cause for concern as it often indicates weakening roots. If a tree is leaning more than 15% from vertical, you should consider having it straightened or transplanted. To be safe, it's always best to hire a professional arborist to inspect any leaning tree to assess the risk and avoid potential accidents.

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.

If your palm tree has spots on the leaves, rotting buds, or is beginning to turn yellow, then you have a sick tree on your hands. You should contact a palm tree specialist to identify the problem and help treat the tree if possible. Preventing diseases and pests is key to a healthy palm tree, and it's essential to take action as soon as possible if your tree is showing signs of being sick.

There are several methods to hollow out a tree stump, and the best one depends on your tools, experience, and priorities. Common methods include using a chisel and hammer, a chainsaw, or burning.

  • Chisel and Hammer: This is often considered the easiest approach for those with limited tools or experience, though it is the most time-consuming.

  • Chainsaw: Using a chainsaw is the fastest method, but it comes with significant safety risks, especially for inexperienced users.

  • Burning: This can be an effective method, but it is not recommended unless you can first drill holes into the stump. Without holes, the stump will be difficult to light and may not burn completely through.

A power drill with at least a ⅜-inch diameter bit can make the job quicker and easier, regardless of the primary method. While you can use a chisel or chainsaw without a drill, it will require more time and effort. Always wear protective goggles and thick gloves, as splinters are an inevitable risk.
