Best tree service pros near Canaan, VT

Q: How can I save money on a new tree?

• <div><p>Opt for a barefoot tree. Pros harvest barefoot trees when they&rsquo;re dormant (leafless). They shake the dirt from the root ball and pack it in moist material. </p><p>These trees can cost half as much as the trees at your local nursery, and you can buy them online&mdash;so there&rsquo;s a much wider selection. Just make sure you keep your barefoot tree cool until you&rsquo;re ready to plant it.</p></div>

Q: What is the best tool to cut down a tree?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;re unsure about how to use this tool, this project may be one to skip. </p></div>

Q: What are the general rules for pruning trees?

• <div><p>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, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-time-trim-trees.htm">pruning should be during late winter.</a> 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.</p></div>

Q: Can an arborist save my sick tree?

• <div><p>It depends on the problem, the affected part of the tree, the risk of the pathogen spreading, and the overall health of your tree. Many diseases, fungal infections, and insect infestations can be successfully treated, especially if the issue is only in a few branches. However, if a disease is too widespread, too severe, too easily spread, or in the roots, the tree will likely need to be removed.</p></div>

Q: Can a tree grow back from a stump?

• <div><p>A tree can grow back from its stump, but full regrowth is unlikely (especially for more stubborn conifer trees). Instead, trees are more likely to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-stop-tree-stump-sprouts.htm">send up a number of shoots from the dead stump</a>, which will try to develop into primary stems over time. In other words, it will start to look increasingly bushy. The goal of killing and drying out a tree stump is to prevent that from happening, as well as make the stump easier to completely remove.</p></div>

"I cannot believe our good fortune in finding Josh from NEK Tree Workz when the huge elm hanging over our house was cracked down the middle in the last storm. From initial call to resolution was just over 24 hours, and that giant tree was safely down with not one bit of damage to either house or barn, both of which are super close to the damaged tree. Josh is incredibly skilled and both guys are professional, polite and great at what they do. Highly recommend calling these guys for tree work!"

"I called Monty at 7:30 am after an overnight storm that uprooted 3 of our trees. He answered, came over an hour later, gave me a quote. I had 2 other vendors give me a quote and Monty's was a bit lower than the others. Monty was professional, on time the next morning and did the job for less than he quoted us. I was impressed."
