"Gil Tree Service was exceptional. Joel reviewed our project, submitted a fair estimate and provided tips on properly caring and maintaining our trees. He arrived on time and worked efficiently. He left the property cleaner than before he arrived. Additionally, he suggested purchasing bushes to define our property line. He went way above our expectations as he delivered the bushes and planted them. Joel is the real deal, he is honest and knowledgable, you will not be sorry using his service. I will definitely work with him again."

"Silverton and his team did an absolutely amazing job on cutting our huge cypress trees and strawberry trees. It was an all day job and we couldn't be happier with their profession and expertise. They also made sure to clean up every bit of debris from our yard and our 3 neighbors yards! We will definitely hire them for future projects."

"Jesus was fast efficient. He took out several trees for almost half the price I received from another tree service. I definitely would recommend him to anyone who is looking for quality service at a reasonable price."

"They did a great job, I would highly recommend them to anyone. They did an excellent service. Eric and all of the workers were great and extremely helpful for us. They were very very good and careful when cutting the limbs and the trunks of the trees. My neighbors were very appreciative of them not blocking the road during the work."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

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.

There are several methods to hollow out a tree stump, and the best one depends on your tools, experience, and priorities. Common methods include using a chisel and hammer, a chainsaw, or burning.

  • Chisel and Hammer: This is often considered the easiest approach for those with limited tools or experience, though it is the most time-consuming.

  • Chainsaw: Using a chainsaw is the fastest method, but it comes with significant safety risks, especially for inexperienced users.

  • Burning: This can be an effective method, but it is not recommended unless you can first drill holes into the stump. Without holes, the stump will be difficult to light and may not burn completely through.

A power drill with at least a ⅜-inch diameter bit can make the job quicker and easier, regardless of the primary method. While you can use a chisel or chainsaw without a drill, it will require more time and effort. Always wear protective goggles and thick gloves, as splinters are an inevitable risk.

Unless it’s dead or dangerous, think twice about cutting down a tree in your yard. They’re good for health, well-being, wildlife, and the environment. Plus, local authorities often have regulations prohibiting the removal of trees, especially protected species or individual trees with historical value.

A general rule is that trees need 10 gallons of water for each inch of the tree’s diameter. For large trees, that can amount to approximately 160 gallons of water or more. Watering big trees to this extent can take quite a bit of time using a hose. For this reason, you may consider installing a soaker hose or sprinkler system to make the job easier.  

It may not be worth it to rake every leaf in your yard, but it’s necessary to remove the majority of leaves to prevent them from smothering grass growth on your lawn. However, raking leaves isn’t your only option for leaf removal. You can remove leaves easily with a leaf blower or compost or mulch them with your lawn mower to repurpose them to help grow your garden or yard.
