"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 Landen did an amazing job! I had two large, unwieldy, dead trees that needed to come down, and they did not disappoint! They were prompt, professional, courteous, and considerate of my needs. They also went an "extra mile" and put down grass seed and some hay where there was some disturbed soil around the work site! The value for the money was top-notch, and I will definitely call them in the future for any tree work that comes up!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally, homeowners do not need permission to cut down a tree on their own private property, but there are several exceptions where a permit may be required. You might need a permit if the tree is particularly large, old, or a protected species, such as a heritage tree. Trees located near public property or power lines can also be subject to special rules. Additionally, many local governments and homeowners associations (HOAs) have regulations controlling which trees can be removed to manage an area's appearance or prevent the spread of invasive species. To avoid hefty fines, it is crucial to check with your local government and HOA to determine if a permit is needed before you begin.

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.

Late August, September, and mid-October are the ideal months for planting a young tree. However, the best time to plant a tree ultimately depends on when the weather transitions to fall-like conditions and eventually winter frost. As long as the hottest days of summer have passed and the ground hasn’t frozen yet, you can still successfully plant trees.

Surface-level tree roots might only pose a small threat, such as being a tripping hazard or obstacle when you mow your lawn. But if mature tree roots start growing in the direction of your home’s foundation or plumbing system, it could be a real problem. Cutting small tree roots out before they grow too large can keep your home safe without removing the whole tree.

A tree can grow back from its stump, but full regrowth is unlikely (especially for more stubborn conifer trees). Instead, trees are more likely to send up a number of shoots from the dead stump, which will try to develop into primary stems over time. In other words, it will start to look increasingly bushy. The goal of killing and drying out a tree stump is to prevent that from happening, as well as make the stump easier to completely remove.
