"I hired 24/7 Tree Service to cut down and remove 14 dead trees on the vacant lot behind my house. They did an outstanding job and were very professional. They showed up right on time and they gave me an excellent price. The work they did was better than any other tree service I have hired in the past and working with Alcides was a pleasure. I would highly recommended this company for any tree service you need big or small. Do yourself a favor and get a hold of 24/7 Tree Service for an estimate before you hire another company."

"Outstanding in every aspect. Team was professional and friendly. Were happy to answer our questions and wanted us to be happy with the work performed. The owner was on-site and worked with the crew. Clean-up was outstanding and they left the yard cleaner than they found it. We highly recommend JC Tree Service."

Customers say: True professional

"Dr Bob White was a joy to work with. He came to the house, evaluated our trees and pointed out other concerns with the vegetation in the yard. We were afraid we were going to lose our live Oak trees. After his assessment he recommended a particular plan for the trees and ,if desired, treating the other concerns in the yard. We opted for the treatment of all of our plants/bushes and trees. He completed the treatments that day. Now, after two months we have trees that look healthy and a yard that has never looked better. I am so thankful that we were able to save our lovely trees and make our yard look so nice. I thought his service was wonderful."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Tree roots can take weeks to years to die, depending on the method you use. Chemical herbicides take the least amount of time—typically between three and four weeks—while homemade methods, like covering an old stump with leaves, could take between seven and eight years. If you’re unsure which method to use or how quickly you need to act, consulting with a pro is always a good idea.

Yes, cutting a tree's roots can cause it to fall, particularly if major support roots are severed. In extreme cases, trimming roots can affect the tree's structure and stability. Many crucial roots are located just below the soil's surface. If you make severe cuts to roots more than 2 inches in diameter, you risk impacting the tree's water flow and its ability to withstand severe winds or storms. Even cutting roots less than half an inch in diameter under or outside the tree's canopy can cut off its water supply, causing it to decline, die, and eventually topple.

Consumers typically do not need to worry about the cost of tree insurance, as professional tree service companies pay for their own coverage. For a tree service business, an average U.S. policy covering about $1 million in general liability costs roughly $40 a month or $500 a year. More extensive policies, providing between $500,000 to $2 million in coverage, can cost between $3,000 and $6,000 annually, depending on the company's size and scope of work. Tree service professionals should speak with an insurance company to determine the right plan for their business.

You can use herbicides to prevent roots from growing without killing the tree itself, however they must be used with caution. Systemic herbicides are absorbed by the root and can kill off problematic roots. However, herbicides can sometimes negatively impact nearby plants, so the solution is best used sparingly.

You should plant trees at least 15 to 20 feet away from your house, and more if the tree will grow large and spread its limbs. Trees pose several dangers to houses when planted too close. They can litter the roof with leaves and branches, create fire hazards, make a ladder for larger pests, and even damage the foundation as their roots grow.
