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: Can you burn a tree stump?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;ll need enough to keep the fire going for many hours to completely burn out the stump, especially if it&rsquo;s large. </p><p>Monitor the fire closely to ensure it doesn&rsquo;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&rsquo;s left of it. </p><p>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.</p></div>

Q: Do I need to prune evergreen conifers?

• <div><p>Not all evergreen conifers need to be pruned, but some do. Pruning pine trees is not necessary, but you can do so during June and July if you wish. On the other hand, spruce, firs, and junipers do need to be pruned from late winter to early spring.</p></div>

Q: How much does professional tree service cost?

• <div><p>The cost of professional tree service, such as trimming, is $460 on average, but the price can range from $75 to $1,800. A more typical range is between $200 and $760. The final price depends on several factors, including the size and type of the tree. For example, trimming Crepe Myrtle trees costs an average of $80 to $400, while giant pine trees can range from $200 to $1,800. Other factors that influence the cost include the time of year, as services are often more expensive in the spring. Your location can also play a role; costs may be higher if you live in a remote area or if the tree is difficult to access. However, some professionals may offer a discount if you have multiple trees that need service.</p></div>

Q: Do tree removals include stump removal?

• <div><p>Tree removal costs typically don&rsquo;t include stump removal, as that technically falls into a different service. The company you hire may offer the service for an additional fee; ask them if they offer it to ensure you get the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/5-tips-get-best-tree-service.htm">best tree stump removal costs possible</a>. </p></div>

We hired Cody to take care of removing some old buildings and a lot of mesquite. He did an amazing job! He is very honest and his communication is like no other. He kept us updated every day that he worked. If you need demo work, or brush clearing, I would highly recommend Cody!
