"I had a couple of bids for the job and they were very fair with the price and they were willing to help me with what I needed. Definitely will be doing business with them again and would highly recommend them for any type of tree service that someone needs. They are not looking to retire off a single job. Like the other quotes I had. My picture doesn’t do it justice of what it was before."

"Carlos and his crew were professional and efficient. Not only did they remove trees and branches over my house, they managed to do it without harming the many plantings I have below the branches. Cleanup was superb. They were able to get to me in a timely manner, and the cost for what I got was extremely reasonable. I highly recommend them to anyone."

"Hired Elian's Tree service to trim and shape 5 trees. Their pricing matched my other quotes, they were able to fit me in within 2 days, and were actually knowledgeable about trees. The trees all look good and were trimmed well. They were excellent!"

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. 

Whether tree roots will continue to grow after a tree has been cut down depends on the species. Some tree roots will eventually die because they can no longer get nutrients through photosynthesis. However, other species that reproduce through root sprouts can continue to grow and produce new sprouts for seven years or more. For example, the roots of elms, ficus, and willows tend to regrow aggressively, while the roots of pines, oaks, and maples will typically die. To determine if a root system is still active, look for new sprouts on the old trunk, stump, or any exposed roots.

Common signs that a tree is rotting include dead branches, a leaning trunk, peeling or cracked bark, leaf discoloration, and the presence of fungi. If you notice any of these signs, it’s best to hire an arborist near you to inspect your tree and determine if it can be saved or if it needs to come down.

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.

You can use a felling ax to chop down a tree by following the same prep and steps as a chainsaw, but be prepared to use some muscle. For trees bigger than 7 inches in diameter, it can take some time and serious strength to cut down a tree using just an ax.
