Q: Is it a good idea to cut down an old tree?

• <div><p>Trees are beneficial to the environment and wildlife. If you have an old tree, but it&rsquo;s healthy, it may be best to avoid cutting it down. However, if it&rsquo;s showing signs of bug infestation, disease, or is potentially hazardous, then you should <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/tree-removal/">contact a tree removal company</a> to cut it down. </p><p>If you are unsure whether you should have it removed or not, then speak with an arborist to determine what is best.</p></div>

Q: How do I maintain trees on a commercial property?

• <div><p>To maintain trees on a commercial property, perform regular pruning, monitor for diseases, and apply fertilization to promote healthy growth. It is also important to remove any hazardous branches to keep the trees healthy and prevent potential liability issues.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take a tree branch to root?

• <div><p>A tree branch should start to form roots in about three months. It can take about a year for a tree branch to develop roots strong enough to go in the ground. For best results, start several branches because, no matter how closely you follow instructions, they won&rsquo;t all form roots. Compost any that aren&rsquo;t thriving.</p></div>

Q: Are palm tree stumps hard to remove?

• <div><p>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. </p><p>If you want to be able to repurpose the grass in the area where you removed a stump later, you&rsquo;ll have to dig quite deep&mdash;and perhaps wide&mdash;to trim away all the roots.</p></div>

Q: Do trees go into shock when transplanted?

• <div><p>Trees aren't big fans of moving, and they do go into shock during a transplant. Although most carefully thought-out tree transplants see the tree recover from the shock just fine, there is always a risk of having an unsuccessful move. Proper preparation, timing, and diligent aftercare are crucial to minimize the risks when transplanting a tree.</p></div>

"Amazing service. Jason was here the next morning and worked on the shower drain that was filled with grout from a tile contractor. Hired a local plumber to clear the drain and all they did was pierce the p trap in 2 places. Jason took over jetted the grout out, then sent the camera and noticed the 2 holes. Didn't leave me hanging over the holidays with family arriving in 2 days. Came back the next morning and dug his way under the home to replace the p trap. Saved me from cutting up all my new interior shower flooring. Highly recommended. Thank you Chloe and Jason."
