Anybody with a chainsaw and a pickup truck can call himself a tree trimmer. Rainhunters is a real company that will be around if you need them later. They are insured and post their insurance info on their website. You won’t get that from a guy with a pickup truck.
Rainhunters are professionals. They do top-quality work at a fair price. We interviewed three other companies and chose Rainhunters because of the professional way they presented themselves. Being members of the Better Business Bureau, having a website ([*** Link removed ***] posting their credentials and awards and being able to accept credit cards all made us feel more comfortable with them than some others. The fact that they listened to my concerns clinched the deal.
I was most impressed with Rainhunters. I love trees and have seen too many butchered by tree-trimmers who wield chain saws like weapons to defoliate trees instead of tools to sculpt then and help them live better and longer. A tree is a living thing that should be treated with love, not just a trimmer’s paycheck.
I have a pool and contrary to most pool owners, I like having the limbs overhang to provide shade and a more natural atmosphere. When the owner, Ricardo Prieto, came out to give an estimate, he understood what I wanted and respected it. Some other companies tried to talk me into doing things their way instead of the way I wanted.
My wife was afraid that the trimmers might make our lovely old oak trees into “lollipop” tress like you see in parking lots and around commercial buildings. We conveyed that to Ricardo and he assured us they would not do that.
The crew was delayed coming out the first day, but the office called to let us know. That made a very good impression. So many service people don’t have such courtesy. We appreciated it.
If you don’t speak Spanish, you can always call Ricardo if you need to communicate anything. He will come out for the initial estimate and translate any concerns you have to his workers. Plus he will show up with them in the morning – at least he did with me (but maybe I was a challenging customer).
When the guys came to do the work, they were careful and asked before cutting too many branches, which was quite a relief. They were more concerned about making the customer happy than rushing through the job. Additionally, they were quiet, using a machete when appropriate, a small chainsaw that didn’t rouse the whole neighborhood and a small wood chipper. Plus, unlike other crews I’ve seen at neighbor’s yards, they did not have a radio blasting. We appreciate that some neighbors might not want to join us in this project by being assaulted by noise.
Overall, it was a great experience. Mike Nelson, McAllen.
The depth of tree roots depends on the species. Trees like oaks and maples can have root systems that grow down 20 feet or more. However, trees that grow in shallow soils will have roots that go only a few feet down. Research how your tree species grows in your climate area to estimate root depth.
Yes, you can prune a palm tree with a chainsaw, but a chainsaw is overkill for a job like this. You risk damaging the tree if you make a bad cut. More commonly, you’ll need pruning shears or a serrated knife to trim a palm tree, or you can use a specialized pruning saw instead of a chainsaw.
If you’re looking to rot a tree stump fast, potassium nitrate will work far quicker than copper nails. First, drill several holes into the stump using a power drill, then pour potassium nitrate pellets into the holes. Next, add water to help the chemical absorb into the wood, thoroughly soaking the stump to ensure the pellets dissolve and spread evenly. Afterward, cover the stump with a tarp to retain moisture and block sunlight, then place mulch on top to secure it in place.
Light-bark trees are most notorious for producing lots of sap when wounded. These varieties include maples, birches, poplars, dogwoods, magnolias, and elms, and they will bleed more when the trees are dormant. That’s why it’s a good idea to prune them in the summer months rather than waiting until winter.
We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.
Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.
