"Ed is a great arborist! He taught me more about trees in a short time than an entire book or internet search! He helped my very large tree at an extremely reasonable price! He will be back later this year for a much needed teim. I will recommend him to everyone I know!"

"We do not have words for the quality of work J and L provided. After six estimates, they beat the other tree services by thousands of dollars. The crew arrived on time, began work and did not stop for eight hours. We had six huge, dangerous white ash trees and a few other shrubs to be removed. I held my breath as they shimmied up the trees like squirrels to get the trees down. I have many flower beds and plantings that I was afraid might have to be demolished, but no, everything was left untouched. They cleaned up every last speck of debris. There are no words to recommend J and L highly enough for any tree work. We definitely want them to come back and remove other trees that are about to kick the bucket. Bravo for an exceptional job and exceptional workers."

"Devin and his crew (with backhoe) completed a project for us that will help our drainage situation-(water flowing back toward foundation). They were on time and finished in a timely manner. Between all three members of their crew, they were able to come up with a plan that made sense. I was impressed with how well they worked together, and it made me more comfortable having three minds on the project than one. They were pleasant to work with and answered all of my questions. I would not hesitate to hire them again!"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

No. Most of the time, suckers are only a sign that the tree is experiencing stress. However, they can also be the canary in the coal mine, letting you know that something else is stressing your tree. If you have lots of suckers on your tree, calling in an arborist or a tree care expert is always a good call to determine the cause and develop a solution that de-stresses your tree.

Burning a tree stump can be effective, but it comes with safety considerations and isn’t always best for every situation. It's essential to check local regulations and assess the safety risks involved. Stumps that are near wooden structures or other non-moveable flammable objects aren’t good candidates for burning due to the risk of the fire spreading. Alternatives like grinding or a DIY stump rotting project might be safer and quicker for getting the job done.

In the short term, you’ll have a lot of fallen trees to deal with. Tree removal services costs typically start at $200 per tree and increase based on species and size. Then, you’ll have to deal with the loss of trees: That means a loss of shade and a greater risk of rain runoff and erosion. Also, you’ll miss out on the health and aesthetic benefits of having trees on your property, which could even affect the resale value of your home.

That being said, cutting down a tree it’s not always a bad idea. Trees growing too close to rooftops can present fire hazards or debris problems. You may need to remove diseased or dying trees to prevent future issues.

You’ll have to balance up the cost, the value of the tree (sentimental or otherwise), and the risk factors. An experienced arborist will help you understand whether transplanting is likely to be successful. The cost and hassle of transplanting a large, well-established tree are often not worth it, especially if the species is fast-growing and easy to source. The decision depends on the age and species of the tree, the conditions in the new site location, and how careful the company is when digging out and moving the tree.

The speed of your tree root removal process depends on a few different factors, including the size and type of tree. However, the fastest method of killing tree roots is applying chemical herbicide, which starts working quickly and efficiently. But this removal method has its drawbacks, such as having a negative effect on the surrounding vegetation and landscaping. Other options like rock salt and stump grinding work relatively quickly and cause less damage to your yard.
