"J.D. did an outstanding job scraping, water blaring and finishing our shed before doing an expert job painting it. He and his helper were very courteous and kept us informed as the job progressed. I give him 5 stars."

"I have an extremely large tree that is started dropping large limbs. All the other services I spoke with were anywhere from 2 weeks to over a month before they could come remove the tree. I was told though that the tree would be fine for a while. 2 dropped limbs later and 2 electrician calls later I found Wes-Tex on Home Advisor. I called them up on a rainy day (it rained about 2 inches that day) and they came to look at the tree. They cut down a large limb that hit the side of our house but was still hanging from the tree. They are coming back out tomorrow to remove the rest of the tree. They are extremely reasonable when it came to price. Despite the emergency call they were still cheaper than a couple of the tree services that would take over a month to get this tree out. Unless something drastic happens tomorrow I cannot recommend Wes-Tex enough. They may be saving us thousands of dollars and potential lawsuits by removing this tree faster than anyone else could, and they are not overcharging. I cannot thank them enough."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

Trees are beneficial to the environment and wildlife. If you have an old tree, but it’s healthy, it may be best to avoid cutting it down. However, if it’s showing signs of bug infestation, disease, or is potentially hazardous, then you should contact a tree removal company to cut it down. 

If you are unsure whether you should have it removed or not, then speak with an arborist to determine what is best.

Whether you should remove the roots of a dead tree depends on whether they’re damaging nearby areas. For instance, if the roots continue to grow near sidewalks, driveways, or the foundation of your home, they can cause damage. If you want to plant something else in that spot, removing the roots can make it easier for the new tree or plant to grow.

Unlike some fruit trees, such as apple, sweet cherry, or pear that require at least two trees for pollination, most peach trees are self-pollinating. This means you can plant just one tree and still expect it to produce fruit, typically within two to four years. For best results, consult with a local landscaper to choose the right peach tree variety for your specific climate, soil type, and yard layout.

Before you cut down a dead palm tree, try to revive it using the methods listed above. However, there are instances when it makes sense to remove a dead palm tree, including:

  • The heavily infected tree will infect nearby trees, bushes, and plants.

  • The palm’s roots are overtaking your yard, foundation, and sidewalk and causing structural damage.

  • The tree is unstable and a hazard to your property, your neighbor’s property, and pedestrians.
