"One of our palm tree was snapped in half possibly by the strong gust yesterday. Overall, Fantastic jobs were done, although the grinder vehicle can not fit in the backyard door to grind the stump off, the company is able to gave me a further discount. Definitely recommend them for a fast, reliable and affordable service"

"We had Fernandez Landscape Contractors execute two projects for us - installation of a number of small trees and grass replacement, flower bed edging, and a large cypress tree removal. They did an excellent job, led by Tony G. who seems to be super knowledgeable and very responsive to our needs and in communicating. The pricing seemed to be competitive, and they had much better ideas about how to solve our particular challenges than another provider. Tony even came back himself to help me with removal of a dangling wire near our roof after the tree removal though that was not part of our contract. After the brutal summer drought killed a few small trees they made good on their guarantee to replace them. I would definitely choose them again."

"This was a fantastic company! They did a great job in a timely manner. I was impressed by the care taken by the workers to be sure nothing was damaged when trees were cut and trimmed. They took away the cut branches and even used a leaf blower to finish up. The owner was friendly and concerned to be sure everything was properly taken care of. The cost was very good too. I'm very impressed and will be using their services again for my upcoming landscaping work. I highly recommend them!"

"Please see the other 5 star review I left with details of our project - had to come back and shout out the crew! Armando was our tree arborist (AMAZING WORK!!! So kind!!) and his partner was Ana. These guys were working in the Houston humidity, 90+ degree weather for over 7 hours! They both did incredible, so skilled, and professional. It was really cool to watch the whole process unfold and see how big of a difference taking care of your trees makes a home look so much better! God Bless!!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It takes anywhere from three to seven years for a stump to decompose on its own. This timeframe can depend on the kind of tree and your climate. The lower to the ground the stump is, the faster it rots. If you kill a tree stump with salt, boiling water, herbicide, light deprivation, or burning, the tree stump decomposes faster. 

It’s not always easy to tell when a tree is dying, although signs like dropping branches and brittle bark can sometimes offer clues. It can also be difficult to know whether a tree is dead or dormant, especially if it’s a deciduous tree. You’ll want to wait until a growth season to get a good idea of a tree’s health. When in doubt, contact an arborist for a consultation.

Using vinegar to kill tree roots is just one of the clever ways to use vinegar around the house. The method works best when you apply vinegar as directly to the root system as possible. For example, if the old tree roots and stump are currently exposed, drill holes in the tops of the roots and pour undiluted white vinegar into the holes to soak into the plant. Remember that vinegar can kill the surrounding grass and plants should it pour over the edge.

Hiring an arborist or tree surgeon is usually more expensive than a standard tree company, but it is often worth the investment. Arborists have education and certifications that standard companies typically lack, leading to a more professional, expert-level service. Their expertise is particularly valuable for diseased or infested trees, as they can ensure safer removal and help prevent the issue from spreading. Additionally, arborists may be necessary for work near power lines, as uncertified companies are often not permitted to service these trees. If your goal is to preserve the health of your trees, an arborist is the best choice. Their services, such as stump grinding, are also performed with greater expertise to ensure a safe depth that won't cause your lawn to collapse over time.

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.
