"Skill, experience, professionalism, and a generosity of spirit We began working with Mike King and Jon Westerlund in 2017, soon after my husband Troy and I bought our house. An arborist identified several trees that threatened to fall, two on the house and three others across the neighbor’s fence. Ben and Rick, with two others helping to haul out the cut branches, packed an extraordinary amount of work into one day, taking down those hazardous trees, pruning up several others to improve both views and light, and chipping all branches. In spring 2018, we hired Kingwest again, this time for only a couple of hours, to grind a big old stump and make short work of chipping the piles and piles of branches that we had spent all winter hauling out of our acre of woods. That summer tragedy struck our household: Troy was hit by a car while out running and paralyzed below the shoulders. Mike and Jon came through with surpassing kindness and generosity, quickly clearing trees where a wheelchair ramp would need to go. Because of adaptations to make our home accessible and the need to avoid any risk of a fallen tree blocking the road for emergency vehicles, we have had several occasions to have tree work done since Troy has been home. In the photo, Ben is in taking down a Douglas fir near the road that our arborist identified as hazardous. In the wake of Troy’s injury, Mike and Jon have treated us the way they treat their crew, like family. Now we would never consider using anyone else."

"Jon was very professional. He was on time for a consultation and again for actual work. He very flexible taking on additional work I requested while on site. He sought to save a tree that was viable with careful pruning rather than simply cutting it down as others had proposed. His work was skillful and accomplished our goal. In the end his bill came in within his bid which we appreciated. I highly recommend Jon and plan to call on him for future tree removal services!"

"No response to messaging via Angie's List which they said they never received. Arborist came out who was very pleasant and knowledgeable. Price was 20% higher than other bidder, so did not use them for work. I would consider having them bid for future work, though..."

"The tree team arrived at the scheduled time and cut down the tree within about 1.5 hours. They were careful to avoid the new gutters and took all the debris away. Price was good. They were friendly, patient, listened carefully to my concerns and have 10 years experience. Great to work with!"

Arborists 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.

The fastest ways to remove a tree stump are by grinding it or burning it.

Stump grinding is often the quickest method, with professionals able to chip away a stump and its roots within a single session. You have the option to hire a professional stump removal service or rent a stump grinder to do it yourself. However, it's important to note that these machines can be large, difficult to transport, and dangerous to operate without prior experience. For safety reasons, hiring a local arborist or landscape specialist is often recommended.

Burning is another fast option. Before you begin, check your local burn laws. The process involves drilling holes into the stump, filling them with vegetable oil, and waiting 24 to 48 hours. Afterward, you can add charcoal bricks to the surface and light the fire, which must be attended at all times.

For a more affordable but much slower alternative, you can use potassium nitrate pellets to accelerate the natural decomposition process. This method typically takes four to six months.

Palm trees aren’t much different than your typical tree removal. Removing a palm tree is a standard procedure as long as pros have the proper tools and supplies. For DIYers, however, there are some risks associated with palm tree removal. Palm trees have spiky fronds, bark, and patches of hefty wood. So, it’s best to let an experienced tree service pro remove a palm tree.

In some states and municipalities, you will need a permit to remove a tree on your property. In many cases where permits are required, a tree must reach a maximum height before a permit is required to remove it. You can either ask your local building department or a tree removal professional if you’ll need a permit. If you do, you can expect to pay between $50 and $150 for the permit alone. Your tree removal company should pull the permit for you and include the permit fee in your total.

Generally, you’ll want to avoid pruning more than 25% of the tree’s canopy at one time. While pruning your tree is important, it’s possible to do it too often or to go too far. Again, this is why hiring a tree trimming pro to do the work is wise. However, if you do decide to DIY, going slow and trimming gradually is the name of the game.
