"Wonderful....I will hire them again if and when tree service is required. My next door neighbors hired them after seeing their completed word and of course, my recommendation. I had estimates from at least 5 other companies; their price was the best of all the others. The men who started and completed the work were extremely courteous and industrious."

"Great. This was the second time I have used them for tree service and happy with the results. Crew leader, Melvin, was a good communicator and checked with me through-out to make sure I was good with how it was going. Ben, the arborist, who came to the house initially, was patient, informative, and it was obvious he cares about the customer. I had three companies out for estimates and evaluation. All three proposals were roughly the same cost, but I was most impressed with Design Tree Maintenance. 12/2019"

"Joseph and his crew were fantastic! Explained everything upfront. Great work and clean-up at a fair price. I will definatly use these guys again. It was actually kind of fun to work with and learn from a true arborist about how to trim and care for trees, Our mesquite trees were overgrown, shading and making a mess in our pool and also overgrown at the roof which creates a path for rodents. All handled professionally and they went above and beyond our expectations. Rusty and Cindy Robertson Cave Creek, AZ"

"I was very pleased with the service provided by Scott and Eric's crew. They were on time for the appointment and very efficient in their execution of the removal of my huge Sisso tree. They did a great job of cleanup after the work was done as well. The price was great and they were able to start the job 2 days after they quoted. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs a tree removal."

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

Transplanting a palm tree is a similar process except for a couple of important differences. First, their root ball doesn’t need to be as large as a “true” tree, which makes them a bit easier to dig up and move around. Second, they struggle more with taking root and staying upright in a new location, so it’s important to give them extra support when staking. 

The fastest ways to remove a tree stump are by grinding it or burning it.

Stump grinding is often the quickest method, with professionals able to chip away a stump and its roots within a single session. You have the option to hire a professional stump removal service or rent a stump grinder to do it yourself. However, it's important to note that these machines can be large, difficult to transport, and dangerous to operate without prior experience. For safety reasons, hiring a local arborist or landscape specialist is often recommended.

Burning is another fast option. Before you begin, check your local burn laws. The process involves drilling holes into the stump, filling them with vegetable oil, and waiting 24 to 48 hours. Afterward, you can add charcoal bricks to the surface and light the fire, which must be attended at all times.

For a more affordable but much slower alternative, you can use potassium nitrate pellets to accelerate the natural decomposition process. This method typically takes four to six months.

Local tree removal prices range from $200 to $2,000 overall, but vary depending on:

  • Local cost of labor and supplies

  • Accessibility of the tree

  • Local laws regarding who is allowed to remove the tree

  • The species of the tree (softer woods are often easier to remove)

  • Local seasonal discounts for the off-season

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.

Costs range from $500 to $5,000 per tree, depending on size, location, and accessibility.
