"Excellent service and pricing. Arrived on time, took down a very large tree and cleaned up in 90 minutes. They left our yard completely free any debris including leaves from another trees. This is our second time using them and we have been totally satisfied both time. Will definitely hire again for any other tree service."

"I had a difficult dead tree to remove in a space that was challenging. Kenny and Andrew arrived on time. The top 20 feet of my tree was rotted and they were able to top it safely to the ground after using proper engineering techniques. Andrew was the climber and handled all the unexpected problems that came up. He is a certified Arborist and really made the difficult job go easy. Kenny worked the ground ropes very safely and professionally. Kenny was the eyes on the ground and made sure the job ran smoothly. Both men are military veterans and they made sure everything was cleaned up to my satisfaction. I highly recommend Carolina Tree Trimmers for any tree related problems that customers might have. These two are the best in the business."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

You should not trim an oak tree in the summer. Oak trees are especially susceptible to disease, and open tree wounds are an invitation for beetles that carry tree-killing fungus. If there’s no risk that the oak tree will do damage to your property or hurt someone, it’s best to save the trimming for fall or winter. If you can, seal the wound with latex to prevent fungus from getting inside.

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.

You can use a chainsaw, but it won’t remove the entire stump or root ball and is not a recommended method. It takes quite a bit of physical work to achieve and will likely dull or ruin your chainsaw. Instead, consider using salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, stump grinding, or burning to kill a tree stump. These methods allow you to kill a stump using minimal machinery and physical exertion.

You can use a felling ax to chop down a tree by following the same prep and steps as a chainsaw, but be prepared to use some muscle. For trees bigger than 7 inches in diameter, it can take some time and serious strength to cut down a tree using just an ax. 

It’s not as common for Dutch elm disease to affect other types of trees, especially if the surrounding trees aren’t elms. However, it is possible for DED to spread to other trees, particularly in northern states, like Minnesota. In fact, it’s a good idea to use geography to identify wood and determine which types of trees are in your yard. 

Unfortunately, the complex and shallow root system of elm trees makes surrounding elm trees particularly vulnerable to DED. Early discovery is key!
