"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

On grafted trees, tree suckers will grow from the root stock, not the branches grafted onto it. Therefore, the leaves and characteristics of the suckers aren’t the same as the tree because they are different varieties. Root stock has more hardiness, strength, or drought tolerance than its grafted limbs, so if the suckers are from fruit or flowers, it might be different than the main part of your tree.

Grinding down a tree helps reduce the risk of foundation damage and pests and even helps your home’s curb appeal. Stumps can also be a safety hazard. If grass grows above the stump and someone else mows your yard, they may be in for a rude awakening when they accidentally hit it.

Burning a tree stump can be effective, but it comes with safety considerations and isn’t always best for every situation. It's essential to check local regulations and assess the safety risks involved. Stumps that are near wooden structures or other non-moveable flammable objects aren’t good candidates for burning due to the risk of the fire spreading. Alternatives like grinding or a DIY stump rotting project might be safer and quicker for getting the job done.

There are a few instances in which removing a tree is the best option. You might do this if the tree looks to be a major danger—potentially falling onto your home, your car, or other parts of your property—or it’s diseased beyond repair. A tree that is growing too close to your house might need to be removed to prevent mold growth.

Generally, avoid trimming trees in the summer (with the exception of pruning fruit trees as needed). Trees use a lot of energy in the summer, most of which is relegated to new growth. If you chop it too early, you could stunt the next season's growth. Again, when in doubt, do some research based on the specific tree type.
