"Silas and his partner were fantastic! They worked so hard and trimmed all the trees I needed done. Very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. They even hauled off a load of my yard waste for me saving me an extra trip. I would highly recommend them for any tree work needed! Best price on the island!"

"Matt and his company did through and quality work. We couldn't have been happier with the end result. He went above and beyond to ensure we were happy with the work that was done. We had several bids and he was 1/3 of the cost the others were. But more importantly he stood behind the work he did and was a man of his word which is so hard to find. If you're struggling to find someone who is reliable and does quality work look no further. You won't be dissappointed"

"My giant cherry tree fell over at 5pm and I called Brian for emergency tree removal. The next morning, he had a crew out to chop down and chip the tree. He then came out with the stump grinder and took care of the rest. It was all done by 1:00pm!! I cannot recommend Sound Stump more highly. I was in a situation where the rest of the tree could have fallen and done serious damage to property. Brian saved the day; the arborists were incredibly kind, conscientious, and helpful, which I especially appreciated in an emergency. This is an exemplary company. Thank you, Brian!"

"

They did a good job, getting the weeds out by hand instead of cutting down.  Although the work was good and I'm very satisfied in the results, the cost was more than I would have liked.  I purchased a "Big Deal" for four hours of labor for two people and it was double the hours.  I knew this before they started, but my yard was getting out of hand and I needed to get it done.  The two guys that did the work were very good, and I would recommend them.

"All Ways was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. I called 2 companies to get a bid for yard clean-up. Alex came to my house on time to do a walk-thru and bid for clean-up, weeding and pruning. His price seemed quite reasonable to me, but I got a second estimate which was $200 higher. After the initial bid, I decided to apply fresh bark and weed control to complete the job. I had both companies give me a price for that - the prices were identical. I chose All Ways based on Alex's lower overall price and he had a good personal touch. The next task was scheduling the job. Alex was prepared to do the work immediately which is what I wanted, but he preferred to do the work on the next Saturday (2 days away). Because of the shared driveways in my neighborhood, I told Alex I preferred he do the work on a weekday so as not to block my neighbor's driveway with the bark truck. Alex was very accomodating and agreed to do the job the next day. The work was very professionally and efficiently done. The yard clean-up was very detailed and the bark looks great. Alex was very easy to work with. Overall a great job and great service. I'm now talking to Alex about making repairs to a fence."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

State and local laws vary, but in most cases, you are allowed to trim any branches from your neighbor's tree that cross your property line. However, it's important to ensure you do not damage the overall health of the tree in the process. Removing branches incorrectly can jeopardize the health of the tree and could lead to you being on the hook to replace it.

Yes, cutting a tree's roots can cause it to fall, particularly if major support roots are severed. In extreme cases, trimming roots can affect the tree's structure and stability. Many crucial roots are located just below the soil's surface. If you make severe cuts to roots more than 2 inches in diameter, you risk impacting the tree's water flow and its ability to withstand severe winds or storms. Even cutting roots less than half an inch in diameter under or outside the tree's canopy can cut off its water supply, causing it to decline, die, and eventually topple.

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.

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.

You don’t always need a permit to grind a stump, but you might need one depending on your location and the stump’s surroundings. Permits are often needed if the stump is part of a protected tree species, near public areas or utility lines, or close to environmentally sensitive zones like wetlands. Some cities also regulate noise and work hours. Always check local rules before grinding, and contact your city or county office if you're unsure.
