"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."

"I had an emergency situation with a 70 year old Post Oak uprooting and beginning to fall towards my roof. L & T Tree Service responded immediately (9PM) They came out to inspect by 8 AM the following morning and had a team ready to remove the tree, including grinding out the stump. Professional, skilled workers, safely removed the tree and left the area completely clean of any debris. I would highly recommend L & T Tree Service ."

Customers say: True professional

"Dr Bob treated our Red Oak Oct 6 2020. Two weeks later I saw where the bugs were still eating my tree. I admit, I didn't know what to look for so I called Dr Bob and Mike and told them what was happening. They came out today and retreated at no cost and took the time to point out the regained health of our tree that I did not see. I would recommend him highly and if there were 20 stars to give I would. Such a charming gentleman to work with and Mike, his sidekick, is so patient. Will I hire them again? Let there be no doubt!! No chainsaws here! Just a beautiful healthy tree. Thank you for your service to our country and our trees! A+ in my book!!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Cutting down a tree next to power lines is never a DIY job, and it’s a good idea to contact your utility company first. In most cases, the utility company will need to take care of any tree problems within 10 to 15 feet of power lines. If you want to remove the tree for aesthetic reasons, hire a pro to do the job. Trying to cut trees near power lines yourself can create many safety hazards, and you could be liable if you inadvertently cause damage to electrical equipment.

If you don’t stake a tree that needs support, it could be at greater risk of being damaged or failing completely, whether it uproots or falls over. That could cause damage to your property or other surrounding trees. If you want to grow healthy trees, you may need to stake them for best results.

There are a few general rules to follow that will help you prune your trees correctly. One of the most important rules is to prune during the correct season for the type of tree you have. Typically, pruning should be during late winter. For younger trees, you should not remove more than a ⅓ of the tree's crown when pruning. Also, remember to remove dead and diseased branches first, then proceed with pruning the rest of the tree.

The fastest ways to remove a tree stump are by grinding it or burning it.

Stump grinding is often the quickest method, with professionals able to chip away a stump and its roots within a single session. You have the option to hire a professional stump removal service or rent a stump grinder to do it yourself. However, it's important to note that these machines can be large, difficult to transport, and dangerous to operate without prior experience. For safety reasons, hiring a local arborist or landscape specialist is often recommended.

Burning is another fast option. Before you begin, check your local burn laws. The process involves drilling holes into the stump, filling them with vegetable oil, and waiting 24 to 48 hours. Afterward, you can add charcoal bricks to the surface and light the fire, which must be attended at all times.

For a more affordable but much slower alternative, you can use potassium nitrate pellets to accelerate the natural decomposition process. This method typically takes four to six months.

The best plan of action for an unhealthy or unsafe tree will depend on its condition. An arborist can recommend whether trimming or removal is the right call for your tree. Preventive tree trimming can keep trees safe and healthy, so make regular tree trimming a part of your yard maintenance plan.
