Is it a good idea to cut down an old tree?

• <div><p>Trees are beneficial to the environment and wildlife. If you have an old tree, but it’s healthy, it may be best to avoid cutting it down. However, if it’s showing signs of bug infestation, disease, or is potentially hazardous, then you should <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/tree-removal/">contact a tree removal company</a> to cut it down. </p><p>If you are unsure whether you should have it removed or not, then speak with an arborist to determine what is best.</p></div>

Are the roots included in stump removal?

• <div><p>Manual removal is the only method that includes removing the tree’s roots. Otherwise, root removal is considered a separate job—and depending on the complexity of your root system, you can expect to pay between $100 and $200 per hour for a tree professional to remove roots safely.</p></div>

Are there alternatives to stump grinding or direct removal?

• <div><p>The most common alternative is burning the stump first, then dealing with the cinders and ashes. As you can imagine, this option creates fire hazards, especially since roots can burn underground, hidden, for long afterward. That’s why many states and cities have outlawed the use of stump burning entirely. We do not recommend this option as a viable alternative unless you get a permit from the local fire department and practice all safe burning procedures.</p><p>Others prefer a more long-term DIY approach of degrading the stump with home mixtures <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/will-epsom-salt-vinegar-kill-tree-stump.htm">like Epsom salt and vinegar</a> injected directly into it. This may help the stump decay faster, allowing homeowners to dig it out themselves, but it’s still a lengthy process. It usually takes months for a stump to start falling apart with such treatments, and in the meantime, it can be vulnerable to rot, insects, and other problems.</p></div>

They did a wonderful job on a difficult slope. Also had to remove very large tree stumps that others balked at. They worked quickly and efficiently. I liked Mr Osborne and family from the first meeting. I will certainly call on him again if needed.

Mr. Bunche did a great job of ending the sidewalk, fixing the ends, patching mortar, and building a bridge. There was more concrete to be removed than it appeared at first, so there was an additional charge above the estimate. He is in demand, so sometimes it takes a bit for him to get you on...
