"I’ve been a repeat customer of Acevado's Tree Experts ever since a coworker referred me. My yard has limited access, so they’ve had to climb the trees by hand, and they still get the job done perfectly every time. Their prices are fair, estimates are free, and they always leave the yard clean. Jose and his crew are hardworking and reliable. I highly recommend giving Jose a call."

"When Mr Early surveyed the job and explained how we would do it, I knew he was a true professional. He even asked where the septic lines were so as not to damage them. He was conscientious to not damage our yard in the process, and this was a big job: 15 huge cedar trees were taken out as well as a line of bushes. Yard damage was very minimal, virtually nonexistent. About 10 years ago I had three other trees removed and the crew that did it left my yard a wreck. His price was competitive and he was on the job every day until it was done. I highly recommend his services."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

No. Topping a tree refers to severely cutting down all its major branches and tree in a straight line. It was once recommended for streetside deciduous trees but has fallen out of practice. Topping leads to many problems, removing so much of the tree that many trees struggle to survive and become much more vulnerable to insects and diseases. Also, it doesn’t really help tree growth as once assumed and often leads to an ugly appearance of many sprouting stems in competition to become new main branches.

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.

It can be bad to leave a dead stump in the ground. A stump becomes a hefty piece of dead wood in time and eventually (especially with the help of rain) starts to rot. That makes it a locus point for diseases and pesky insects, as well as a bit of an eyesore. It’s best to remove a tree stump completely before it starts to decay, especially before it starts to fall apart. If the tree was removed because of disease, it’s even more important to fully remove the stump if possible.

You should avoid cutting off the top of mature cherry trees. This process is called tree topping, and it’s not recommended for cherry trees—or any trees, for that matter. Tree topping removes between one-third to half of the length of the tree trunk, resulting in structurally unsound, fruitless suckers. The only exception is for saplings. Young pie, sour, and tart cherry trees that are over 30 inches tall in the fall or winter before the tree blooms can benefit from heading cuts.

White vinegar does not kill ivy on trees because its acetic acid concentration is not high enough to overpower it. Vinegar is an effective herbicide for weeds and other plants, but not for the strength of most ivies, including poison ivy and English ivy. You should use an herbicide to kill ivy, such as one with glyphosate, imazapyr, or triclopyr.
