"I had an outstanding experience with ShoreFix Construction & Home Repairs! They replaced my fence, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. My new fence is absolutely beautiful, and I especially love the decorative fixtures—they add the perfect finishing touch. The team was professional, friendly, and made sure everything was completed exactly as I requested. They paid close attention to every detail and delivered high-quality workmanship from start to finish. When the job was finished, they cleaned up the entire work area and hauled away all of the old wood, leaving my yard neat and spotless. Their excellent customer service and dedication to doing the job right truly stood out. I highly recommend ShoreFix Construction & Home Repairs to anyone looking for quality work, and I will definitely be hiring them again for future projects!"

"I reached out to 3 different companies all on Angieâ s List and Black Dog Stump Grinding was the only one contacted me. They were very prompt and professional returning call and showed up the same day for the quote. I hired them on the spot and they completed the work and cleaned up afterwards. I definitely recommend anyone looking for stump grinding or small tree removal to call them first."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Finding a reliable arborist starts with researching specialists in your area and checking their licensing and certifications. Use online resources like the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to conduct research on each company. Next, contact the arborist and ask the following questions to see whether they are the right fit for your project:

  • Do you handle or specialize in dealing with the issue I’m having?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Do you have any third-party certifications?

  • What equipment and strategies do you plan to use?

A chainsaw is the best tool to cut down a tree, but you may also use a handsaw or ax. You may also want to use a lopper or pole saw to remove limbs before cutting down the tree. Wear chainsaw chaps and protective gear, including eyewear and earplugs if you use a chainsaw. Again, if you’re unsure about how to use this tool, this project may be one to skip.

Trees that flower in the spring—like dogwood, cherry, magnolia, and pear—should not be pruned during the winter. These spring-flowering plants grow buds on old growth, so you’ll actually remove what would’ve been gorgeous flowering foliage. Instead, wait to prune until right after they bloom, when the flowers fade.
