"A.Gurrola Tree Service did an outstanding job for me. They showed up earlier than the original time discussed and trimmed some limbs that were hanging over the house and while they were there, I asked about some trees to be removed and they did it the same day at a very reasonable price. I will recommend them to anyone and I have future projects that I will use them on!"

"DR Bob treated my tree for Dutch elm disease, as well as my shrubs for spider mites, and black spot. Definitely cheaper than replacing all my shrubs, which I was preparing to do. Prompt and professional. Fingers crossed, this works!"

"Busby Tree Service was great! We got in trouble cutting down a dead 80’ oak tree with a hollow trunk. The tree began to fall in the wrong direction and got caught up in another tree, preventing it from falling on our house. We called Seth Busby, finding his business on your website. He and his crew were here in a little over an hour, safely and professionally removing the tree. We will be using them again to remove stumps and remove another tree. Great crew!!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

DIY is risky and not recommended for large trees; professional services ensure safe removal and proper disposal.

You can use a chainsaw, but it won’t remove the entire stump or root ball and is not a recommended method. It takes quite a bit of physical work to achieve and will likely dull or ruin your chainsaw. Instead, consider using salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, stump grinding, or burning to kill a tree stump. These methods allow you to kill a stump using minimal machinery and physical exertion.

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.

The ideal depth of a tree notch depends on the tree, but it should usually be between 20% and 25% of the tree’s depth. However, if the tree is leaning towards the direction of the notch, it can be cut more shallowly—at as little as 10% of the depth. When the tree is leaning away from the direction it needs to be felled, you can cut deeper, closer to 30%.

Costs depend on tree height, trunk diameter, removal complexity, and required equipment.
