"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 questions, answered by experts

The best way is to start controlling tree height long before it grows too large, via careful pruning through the years. But that’s not always possible. If a tree has become too high or too large, use selective pruning to remove the most troublesome branches, one by one, without topping the tree. Gently shaping a tree like this can, over time, correct problems. You can also find growth inhibitors to spray on a tree to stop it from growing too rapidly, but use these sparingly if at all.

Most tree removals take 3-8 hours, requiring additional time for stump grinding or debris hauling.

Trees naturally want to grow upward, so one may straighten all by itself, though this only comes into play when a tree is leaning just a small amount. For trees growing into an awkward position or those leaning heavily in one direction, the above steps are necessary to ensure the tree gets back on the right path. This also holds true for trees planted in a spot with unstable soil.

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.

Pruning is an effective way to prevent a diseased branch from infecting the rest of the tree. If the infection isn’t caught early enough and the pathogen has spread to the trunk or the majority of the branches though, it is too late to prune off the affected areas and you’ll likely need to remove the tree.
