Q: What factors affect tree removal costs?

• <div><p>Costs depend on tree height, trunk diameter, removal complexity, and required equipment.</p></div>

Q: Is it bad to leave a dead tree stump in the ground?

• <div><p>It can be bad to leave a dead stump in the ground. A stump becomes a hefty piece of dead wood in time and eventually (especially with the help of rain) starts to rot. That makes it a locus point for diseases and pesky insects, as well as a bit of an eyesore. It&rsquo;s best to remove a tree stump completely before it starts to decay, especially before it starts to fall apart. If the tree was removed because of disease, it&rsquo;s even more important to fully remove the stump if possible.</p></div>

Q: How many roots can you cut before a tree dies?

• <div><p>Any cutting of tree roots can hurt or kill a tree, which is why it's recommended you don&rsquo;t do it unless the roots are damaging or invasive on a nearby structure like your home. You should never cut more than 15 percent of above-ground tree roots at one time. If you have any questions about cutting tree roots, contact your local <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-arborist%E2%80%8B.htm">arborist</a>.</p></div>

Q: Do tree roots grow after a tree is cut down?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>
