Power-line safety (important)
If a tree or limb is touching a power line, do not approach. Call 911 and the utility. Bynum Tree and Landscape does not perform tree work involving power lines.

Stump Grinding (Typical 4"–6" Below Grade in Most Cases)

Grinding completed; grindings remain in the work area.
- Stump ground to the agreed depth
- Grindings remain on-site
- Customer manages the final area plan
Option B: Cleaner finish add-on
Grindings removal and a more presentable finish where practical.
- Grindings haul-off (additional charge)
- Basic fill/grading (as agreed)
- Cleaner setup for rock/soil/replanting
Set during the estimate
Access, volume, and your plan drive the final approach.
- Depth/finish confirmed on-site
- Text a photo of the stump area + your plan
- Scope confirmed before work begins
Right Tree, Right Place (Placement Guidance)
Many removals aren’t about “bad trees” — they’re about mature size and root space in a tight area. The guidance below is rule-of-thumb only; placement varies by species, irrigation, soil, and lot constraints.
Distance from walls / structures
Plant based on mature size, not today’s size.
- Small trees: ~8–10 ft from a wall
- Medium trees: ~15–20+ ft from a wall
- Large shade trees: ~20–30+ ft from a wall
- Give extra room near corners/tight targets
Hardscape & block walls
Space conflicts can become expensive as a tree matures.
- Avoid planting right next to pavers, walkways, driveways
- Leave a buffer zone where possible
- If lifting/cracking has started, address it early
- Text a wide photo for quick feedback
Higher-conflict examples (tight spaces)
Some species are more likely to create conflicts near hardscape.
- Sissoo (Dalbergia sissoo): commonly associated with surface roots and suckering
- Indian laurel fig (Ficus microcarpa): can damage pavement if not spaced/managed
- If you’re unsure, send photos + location details
Avoid the “mature tree surprise”
On smaller lots, choosing a tree sized for the available space is usually the safest long-term plan. If you’re already seeing hardscape lift or wall movement, an on-site estimate can clarify options and risk.

Do you handle limb-only hazard removals?
Yes. Limb-only hazard removal is available for broken or hanging limbs when the job is limited to the hazard limb and the approved haul-off/cleanup.
How far from my house or block wall should a tree be planted?
Start with the tree’s mature size and the available rooting space. Rule of thumb: small trees ~8–10 ft, medium ~15–20+ ft, and large shade trees ~20–30+ ft from walls/structures. Placement varies by species, irrigation, soil, and lot constraints.
Are there certain trees that cause more root conflict in tight spaces?
Yes. In the East Valley, Sissoo (Dalbergia sissoo) is commonly associated with surface roots and suckering, and some ficus (e.g., Indian laurel fig / Ficus microcarpa) can damage pavement if not spaced and managed correctly.
