"Outstanding job! I was totally impressed by the efficiency of their six-man crew while cutting down two trees. Both the large hickory and huge pine had the potential to damage my house if falling during a storm. They both required a narrow pathway for felling and were cut down spot-on. The job was very difficult to begin with, because of the proximity to my home, but compounded by the 95 plus degree temperatures and high humidity. The crew worked extremely well together, and safely completed the job. The entire site was completely cleared of all debris, and logs and limbs were stacked exactly where I wanted. I intend to use Molina's Tree Service for any future tree removals and will highly recommend them to friends and neighbors for tree work they may need. Thank you for a job well-done!"

"Franky's Tree and Stump Removal crew showed up on the scheduled date and time and performed the service efficiently and effectively. The crew was extremely proactive in making sure the area was cleaned up after the service, and even used a leaf blower to make sure that our porch had no debris on it. Great job! I would recommend Franky's service anytime. Tim Doherty"

"I was very impressed with the work. They are a crew of go-getters. They arrive early in the morning and immediately got busy. They took down 4 fairly large trees and did all the clean up in a day and 1/2. The price was very reasonable and they were careful with the property around the task at hand. I will definitely use them again."

"They did a great job! Edging, weeds and uniform cut. Fairly quick, without cutting corners on job, so not rushed either, just very efficient. So pleased, arranged to have them do all yard work bi-weekly."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

If you’re looking to rot a tree stump fast, potassium nitrate will work far quicker than copper nails. First, drill several holes into the stump using a power drill, then pour potassium nitrate pellets into the holes. Next, add water to help the chemical absorb into the wood, thoroughly soaking the stump to ensure the pellets dissolve and spread evenly. Afterward, cover the stump with a tarp to retain moisture and block sunlight, then place mulch on top to secure it in place.

Some fast-acting products can rot a tree stump in four to six weeks. Keep in mind, these products contain harsh chemicals that may prevent regrowth in the area. Other products, like fertilizer that contains lots of nitrogen, can enhance the process and rot a stump in about a year. (This is compared to the ten years it can take naturally for a stump to rot.)

Hiring an arborist costs around $900 on average, with prices ranging from $250 to $2,500 or more. Some arborists charge an hourly rate, typically between $100 and $350 per hour. The final cost depends on several factors, including the type of work, the number of trees, accessibility, and whether you hire an independent arborist or a larger tree service company. When hiring, you should also consider their experience and insurance coverage.

Below are some estimated costs for common arborist jobs:

  • Small tree removal: $300 to $500

  • Large tree removal: $500 to $2,000 or more

  • Tree health assessment: $150

  • Trimming a small tree: $75 to $200

  • Trimming a large tree: $150 to $400

  • Dealing with invasive species: $150 to $1,000 or more

You can use herbicides to prevent roots from growing without killing the tree itself, however they must be used with caution. Systemic herbicides are absorbed by the root and can kill off problematic roots. However, herbicides can sometimes negatively impact nearby plants, so the solution is best used sparingly.

If a tree stump is removed properly, the chances of a tree growing back are low. However, if a tree has a robust root system, roots can sometimes sprout and someday grow into a tree. The chance of regrowth will depend on several factors such as the type of tree, soil quality, and strength of the root system. In general, it is not recommended to plant a tree where a stump was removed.
