Q: Why is lightning striking a tree dangerous?

• <div><p>Lightning can cause massive damage, fires, and openings for other threats like bugs or fungal diseases. Barring any large fires or explosions, it&rsquo;s difficult to tell how much damage a lightning strike has done until after a thorough inspection. Contact local authorities immediately if lightning strikes a tree in your yard and it causes a fire or explosion.</p><p></p></div>

Q: How long will it take to grind a tree stump with a stump grinder?

• <div><p>It will take you anywhere from 15 minutes to two hours per tree stump to grind and remove the stump from the ground. The larger the size, the longer it will take to remove the stump. Also, keep in mind that rocky soil may require <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/excavation-companies/">local excavation services</a> to loosen up large boulders before you can begin to remove the tree stump.</p></div>

Q: When should a tree be cut down?

• <div><p>A dead tree should always be cut down, because it could fall and cause injuries or damage, and it can also attract insects like carpenter ants. A tree that&rsquo;s diseased beyond repair should also be cut down, but it&rsquo;s not always easy for a homeowner to tell. Signs of disease include dying branches, a hollow trunk, leaning, and discolored or missing leaves, but your best bet is to <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/arborists/">hire a local arborist</a> who can evaluate the tree and tell you if it can be saved or should be cut down.</p></div>

Q: How can you tell if a tree is overwatered?

• <div><p>Since overwatering can harm mature trees just as much as a lack of water, it&rsquo;s important to know the signs of an overwatered tree. If your tree&rsquo;s leaves are yellowing, wilting, or dropping leaves, it&rsquo;s likely that you&rsquo;re overwatering. Other common signs include rotting, fungi, soggy soil, soft or peeling bark, falling leaves, and brittle roots. </p><p>If you realize that you&rsquo;ve been overwatering your mature tree, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/tree-care-and-how-often-water-your-new-tree.htm">stop watering</a> and give the soil time to dry out. Then moving forward, increase time between watering sessions. </p></div>

Q: How far should trees be from foundation?

• <div><p>In general, trees should be planted no closer than 15 to 20 feet from your foundation. For larger trees with far-reaching roots like maples, oaks, or poplars, a good guide is to plant as many feet from your home as the tree&rsquo;s height is expected to reach at maturity. Some trees, like elms and willows, should only be planted far from where their roots may encounter sewer or water lines.</p></div>

I am a young business owner and brand new father! I have worked all over the construction industry from a young age and became a licensed plumber before I finished highschool. The name “One man” Freelancing was inspired by my service in the WV national guard where I still currently serve as the “one man” a term given to the cannon crewmember who loads and fires the artillery cannons. I have a broad range of knowledge and problem solving skills, if I don’t know how to do the job I will surely be able to learn and you will not be disappointed with results!
