Q: Do I need a permit to take down my tree?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;ll need a permit. If you do, you can expect to pay between <b>$50 and $150</b> for the permit alone. Your tree removal company should pull the permit for you and include the permit fee in your total.</p></div>

Q: How can you save money on tree removal services?

• <div><p>Tree removal can be quite expensive, especially for larger projects, but you can use the following tips to help keep costs down:</p><ul><li><p>Do the yard cleanup afterward yourself</p></li><li><p>Choose to leave the logs on your property and split them yourself</p></li><li><p>Opt to leave the stump in the ground and tackle <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/things-to-know-about-stump-grinding.htm">stump grinding</a> yourself</p></li><li><p>Pull permits for tree removal, if necessary, to avoid fines</p></li><li><p>Pay to have multiple trees removed at once</p></li><li><p>Remove tree in the late winter or early spring during off-season</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: Can you cut the top off a plum tree?

• <div><p>Completely topping a plum tree is a risky business. Cut too much, and you&rsquo;ll kill your tree. That said, you do need to trim the top of your tree to encourage bushy growth, maintain your tree&rsquo;s vase shape, and limit size. </p><p>A plum tree's central leader (or trunk) should never extend more than 3 feet above the highest branch. When you first plant your tree, cut the central leader so it&rsquo;s 2 to 3 feet tall. As it grows, cut it back 12 to 20 inches until it reaches its desired height. Never prune more than one-third of the new growth.</p></div>

Q: How far should trees be from foundation?

• <div><p>In general, trees should be planted no closer than 15 to 20 feet from your foundation. For larger trees with far-reaching roots like maples, oaks, or poplars, a good guide is to plant as many feet from your home as the tree&rsquo;s height is expected to reach at maturity. Some trees, like elms and willows, should only be planted far from where their roots may encounter sewer or water lines.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take a tree to recover after pruning?

• <div><p>The recovery time for pruning depends on how much you prune, the species of tree, and how well you care for it afterward. All trees grow new wood and often sprout additional branches after pruning. Ideally, trees should recover from normal pruning after one or two years. Heavy pruning or slow-growing trees may take several years to fully recover. </p></div>

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

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.

Your tree removal company should pull the permit for you and include the permit fee in your total.

Tree removal can be quite expensive, especially for larger projects, but you can use the following tips to help keep costs down:

Do the yard cleanup afterward yourself
Choose to leave the logs on your property and split them yourself
Opt to leave the stump in the ground and tackle stump grinding yourself
Pull permits for tree removal, if necessary, to avoid fines
Pay to have multiple trees removed at once
Remove tree in the late winter or early spring during off-season
