"We had 6 stumps to be ground--three of them extremely large, and one tree to be taken down. Terys and his crew came in and did the job in one afternoon, and did it well. They were courteous and extremely efficient. His lead man on stump grinding, Montague, was an expert with the grinding machine, and at the end of the job assured me that if after I dug through the sawdust and soil (I had it left to use as fill) and found any remaining stump that was too high he would return and make the job right. I have found none. The tree that the crew took down was right on the property line with my neighbor's very nice lawn and so I asked that they not fell the tree in the normal fashion and cut it up for removal, in order to insure my neighbor's lawn would be undamaged. They complied, taking the tree down from the top and no damage to his lawn was done. They then ground that stump as well. I highly recommend these folks, they will do the job right."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

While the fastest way to kill a tree is to simply cut it down, there are several other methods to choose from. You should hire a professional tree removal service to cut down a tree to ensure your personal and property safety. Some slower but effective options include treating or grinding the tree stump or using a basal bark treatment. 

You can use a felling ax to chop down a tree by following the same prep and steps as a chainsaw, but be prepared to use some muscle. For trees bigger than 7 inches in diameter, it can take some time and serious strength to cut down a tree using just an ax. 

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

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’t all form roots. Compost any that aren’t thriving.
