"Jim Rhoads, the owner came out promptly and explained every aspect of the job which included the removal of a very large cherry tree and flush cutting the stump as well as trimming the dead wood off a locust tree. He had a big crew of professionals who worked well as a team to get the job done meticulously. All of the wood and debris were hauled away leaving my yard looking absolutely beautiful. I was quoted a reasonable price for a job very well done. He is fully insured which is important in this line of work! I was extremely pleased with Tomahawk Tree Service and highly recommend them. I will definitely use them for any future tree service I may need."

"The owner and team of workers were respectful to me, my property and the job. They asked me what areas I wanted trimmed. The second tree had several bird nests with eggs. The tree climber trimmed around the nest and relocated the eggs and nest into the tree next to the tree being removed. Awesome work! I will hire Tomahawk if I ever need tree service again."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Yes, cutting a tree's roots can cause it to fall, particularly if major support roots are severed. In extreme cases, trimming roots can affect the tree's structure and stability. Many crucial roots are located just below the soil's surface. If you make severe cuts to roots more than 2 inches in diameter, you risk impacting the tree's water flow and its ability to withstand severe winds or storms. Even cutting roots less than half an inch in diameter under or outside the tree's canopy can cut off its water supply, causing it to decline, die, and eventually topple.

If the roots are still alive, the dead tree will usually try to put out new shoots. That doesn’t mean the tree will survive or that the dead parts of a tree will come back to life. If parts of the tree have died and turned gray or rotten, nothing will bring them back to life and they need to be safely removed.

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.

There are many signs that a tree is diseased or dying, and if you suspect that’s the case, you should call an arborist immediately. You might notice rot or fungus on the trunk or that the tree is beginning to lean to one side. Brittle branches or signs of root damage are other indicators that a tree is in trouble. If the tree is dying, it might be time to cut the tree down so it doesn’t fall.
