"I had a medium-sized tree in the backyard that was dying because of the hard pan we have, it couldn’t get the roots down deep enough, and I needed to have it taken out. The two gentlemen that showed up to take care of the tree were friendly, professional, and they got the work done quickly, and the mess cleaned up. I was very impressed with their work, they worked seamlessly together. The price worked well for us. If you have trees that need to be removed, I would not hesitate to recommend, The Arborist, they do excellent work."

"I called several companies and it either went to voicemail, or they never answered. I called Apex and Phil answered the phone. I told him I had a huge pile of brush that needed to be removed. He came out right away and gave me an estimate. He told me he could possibly work it in in the next week or so. Turned out, he came the next day and removed the brush. His assistant was on the ground raking up the pieces that the grapple left behind. The service was excellent, Phil is very personable, and the price was very reasonable."

"They were quick to respond to my initial call and have communicated swiftly since. They do excellent work and make suggestions. They were able to do even more work than we first called them about. I anticipate a long-standing business relationship with Villages."

"Excellent and prompt communication, honest and loyal. They showed up when they said they would and immediately got to work and were work horses getting the work done in less time than was originally expected plus they cleaned up very well (which seems to be what everyone struggles with that we hire). We will definitely hire them for more work in the future. Thank you!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Unfortunately, palm tree stumps are one of the most difficult types to remove due to how their roots grow. Unlike other trees, palm tree roots grow horizontally and vertically. Palm tree roots grow as deep as three feet into the ground, although soil and growing conditions could mean they go as far as 50 inches into the earth. 

If you want to be able to repurpose the grass in the area where you removed a stump later, you’ll have to dig quite deep—and perhaps wide—to trim away all the roots.

A pro can guide you on the alternatives to tree topping depending on the specific issues within your trees. For example, if you’re dealing with breakage and cracks in your tree, they may suggest canopy reduction, which removes less than 25% of the tree’s limbs. If you’re dealing with lesser damage, some intentional pruning may be all you need. If you’re looking to get a clearer view through your tree, the pro may also try windowing or skirting your tree.

Yes, tree roots can regenerate after they’re pruned or cut. In fact, trimming can stimulate new growth, especially in healthy trees. The tree’s roots can still grow back even after a tree is cut down, (and learning how to get rid of regrowing tree roots is a separate feat). Still, if you don’t wish to harm a tree, pruning the roots should be done with extreme care, and ideally by a professional.

While it’s best to have access to large, healthy, strong trees in a safe position, treehouse living is still possible without them. Contractors can fit tree posts to build the structure onto or use posts as additional support alongside the trees themselves. If you’re in doubt about the suitability of the trees on your land, consult with a local treehouse builder before you start the project.

The best tool to cut trees is a chain saw. You can adjust your chain saw to the correct size based on the size of the branches, offering you the fastest and cleanest cut for medium- to large-sized trees. Depending on the type of chainsaw you use, you can cut through larger trees than you would with a more manual tool like an ax.
