"Grant was on time. Got back to me with details about the job in very prompt fashion. He limbed some precarious Alder trees. AND he landed the branches with minimal damage to the extensive garden of plants under the trees. Great price and very clean quality work. He cleaned up everything and completed the job as discussed. Highly recommend him to anyone needing tree service."

"Roberto contacted me right away and came out the same afternoon to see the job and give me an estimate. He listened to what I wanted to be done and did exactly that. I am so pleased with the job he did that I have scheduled a date for him to come back again in the spring to take care of my other trees. He definitely cares about trees and his customers."

"The customer service was excellent, and I want to commend the company for their prompt response and professionalism. The irrigation system line I mentioned before was damaged due to tree roots infiltrating the pipes, causing leaks. The team quickly assessed the situation."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.

While the fastest way to kill a tree is to simply cut it down, there are several other methods to choose from. You should hire a professional tree removal service to cut down a tree to ensure your personal and property safety. Some slower but effective options include treating or grinding the tree stump or using a basal bark treatment. 

For trimming trees, your best tool is a pair of pruning shears or loppers. Both options work best for branches that are under 3 inches in diameter. Trimming trees with a larger diameter may require a robust tool like a small chainsaw or a handsaw, so take into account your tree’s diameter when deciding between tools.

You can use a chainsaw, but it won’t remove the entire stump or root ball and is not a recommended method. It takes quite a bit of physical work to achieve and will likely dull or ruin your chainsaw. Instead, consider using salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, stump grinding, or burning to kill a tree stump. These methods allow you to kill a stump using minimal machinery and physical exertion.
