"it's a bit pricey, but if my trees are saved it'll be worth every penny. Dr. Bob was incredibly nice and he knows his stuff. After 45 years in the business I would hope he does. Another plus? He didn't treat my questions as if I were stupid. They drove from Dallas TX to my home in deep east TX a drive of over 4 hours and that was all in one day. I would definitely recommend B&W Insect control and tree service!"

"They came out and gave me a quote. They had to convince my husband that it was the right time to do the work. They came out and did the work for two very hot days. They worked very, very hard and did a GREAT job. The difference in the look of the lot is remarkable. The guys were extremely nice and polite. It was an overall very positive experience and I will be callling them yearly to maintain my trees."

"Highly recommend Jeremy and his crew. Hands down the best experience in every way. Rapid response after my inquiry was sent. Prompt scheduling. Arrived on time. Extremely professional, courteous and off the charts work ethic. No need for the concerns I had of my 75ft Sycamore tree location close to my home as well as my neighbors. The team worked together to maintain safety and precision at all times and could drop a limb right on the mark. It was phenomenal to watch. In addition they went above and beyond raking my lawn, removing a pile of former limbs and basically left my front lawn with sparkling curb appeal. This service was worth every dime. And such likeable people! Jeremyâ s brother was a former utility worker and well versed in using appropriate caution to address any overhead electrical line interference with the tree growth. This inspired me to have added confidence in the service provided. Iâ m so happy with choosing GreenTree Service and also admire the service they have provided in the past in and out of the state to assist in times of disasters such as hurricanes and ice storms. This is a top tier business. Will use again without hesitation. And I feel good about how much better the tree itself looks with the symmetry after trimming such huge limbs and how Iâ m sure it will prolong the health and growth of the tree to enjoy for decades to come."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

It is possible to burn out a tree stump if it is dried out and in an area of your property with a large buffer. Drill holes in the stump and dig around the base so it burns more easily. Then, build a small campfire on top using kindling and firewood. You’ll need enough to keep the fire going for many hours to completely burn out the stump, especially if it’s large. 

Monitor the fire closely to ensure it doesn’t spread, and have a hose on hand if it starts to get out of control. When the fire is out, break apart the burned stump and dig out what’s left of it.  

If this sounds like a good option, learn more about how to burn a tree stump before attempting it, as it does come with risks.

Whether tree roots will continue to grow after a tree has been cut down depends on the species. Some tree roots will eventually die because they can no longer get nutrients through photosynthesis. However, other species that reproduce through root sprouts can continue to grow and produce new sprouts for seven years or more. For example, the roots of elms, ficus, and willows tend to regrow aggressively, while the roots of pines, oaks, and maples will typically die. To determine if a root system is still active, look for new sprouts on the old trunk, stump, or any exposed roots.

In some states and municipalities, you will need a permit to remove a tree on your property. In many cases where permits are required, a tree must reach a maximum height before a permit is required to remove it. You can either ask your local building department or a tree removal professional if you’ll need a permit. If you do, you can expect to pay between $50 and $150 for the permit alone. Your tree removal company should pull the permit for you and include the permit fee in your total.

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.

It could be anywhere from weeks to years for a dead tree to fall. A dead tree falls based on its weight, how it leans, the state of its roots, the state of decay, and what local windstorms are like, among other factors. Since it’s hard to predict the fall’s timing, it’s important to cut down a dead tree quickly and avoid any unpleasant surprises.
