Should trees close to a house be removed?

• <div><p>A small, healthy tree growing close to your home isn’t usually a problem. However, it’s worth speaking to an arborist if you have a tree within 15 to 20 feet of your home that isn’t in such good health or is encroaching on your home’s perimeter. The last thing you want is branches burrowing their way under tiles, causing a roof leak.</p></div>

Do trees grow back if cut down?

• <div><p>Trees don’t usually grow back after being cut down. Some particularly robust tree species may start sending up new stems from a stump to recover, but those stems won’t become a “tree” like before. Generally, trees don’t recover from being entirely cut down, which is why it’s important to be careful when making a decision. When you cut down a tree, it’s a good idea to make plans to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/tree-stump-removal.htm">remove the stump</a>, even if it’s unlikely to grow back.</p></div>

Q: Should trees close to a house be removed?

• <div><p>A small, healthy tree growing close to your home isn&rsquo;t usually a problem. However, it&rsquo;s worth speaking to an arborist if you have a tree within 15 to 20 feet of your home that isn&rsquo;t in such good health or is encroaching on your home&rsquo;s perimeter. The last thing you want is branches burrowing their way under tiles, causing a roof leak.</p></div>

Q: What do I do if my neighbor is complaining about dead trees?

• <div><p>Your neighbor is not in a good position to know if your trees are truly dead or pose any kind of danger. That&rsquo;s why hiring an arborist or tree service expert can be such an important part of the process. If the trees are still alive and don&rsquo;t pose any threat, you&rsquo;re in the clear (but you may want to document and photograph everything in case events turn sour down the road).</p><p>But if a tree is visibly dead and near the property line, you should remove it to be safe. If a dead tree falls on a neighbor&rsquo;s property, they may have grounds to sue for negligence. If any branches on trees have died, it&rsquo;s a good idea to cut them back for similar reasons.</p></div>

Q: How is tree and shrub trimming or removal professionally conducted?

• <div><p>Professionals use assessments, strategic cuts, specialized equipment, and safety measures to ensure healthy growth or the safe removal of trees or shrubs.</p></div>

Q: How hard is it to use a stump grinder?

• <div><p>Using a stump grinder is no walk in the park. You&rsquo;ll need to feel confident using some heavy and dangerous equipment. You&rsquo;ll also need to know what size chainsaw you&rsquo;ll need. Factor in the labor for clearing out the debris and filling the hole, and your project becomes quite a laborious one. If you don&rsquo;t have experience with operating a stump grinder, it might be best to call a professional to do the job for you.</p></div>
