"I hired Abel of Discount Tree Service recently. He was prompt, punctual and courteous when he arrived to provide me with an estimate for trimming my enormous pine tree. The price was agreed upon and we set a date for the work to be done. His crew arrived on time and went right to work. They did an amazing job! After cutting off branches and limbs, removing overhang from my roof and neighbor's driveway they went right to work cleaning up the fallen pine needles and other tiny pieces of tree limbs. I WOULD HIRE THEM AGAIN IF NEEDED AND RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY WHOLEHEARTEDLY FOR YOUR TREE SERVICE NEEDS. T .Peterson"

"OC Tree Care did a great job and I wouldn't hesitate to call them again. They were efficient and cleaned up very nicely after the job. All three crew members were professional and were good workers. Carlos came out to give me the bid and he is a professional businessman. I think very highly of him as an individual. I highly recommend this company."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

There are a few differences between tree guying and tree staking. Tree guying requires anchor stakes that are shorter and stronger than regular stakes and are driven deeper into the ground at an angle away from the tree. Tree staking uses longer stakes that are set parallel to the tree and are used for smaller trees. Consult a local tree professional to determine which method is best for your tree.

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.

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.

Tree roots are hearty and complex systems, so they don’t die immediately after the rest of the tree is removed. If you leave the root system in place, it takes anywhere from two to seven years for it to run out of nutrients. It is worth noting, however, that the roots stop growing and expanding after cutting down the rest of the tree.

Unless there’s some sort of rule in your community’s homeowners’ association that requires you to remove a stump, there’s no law that says you have to take it out. If you’re not wedded to the idea of removing it, there are plenty of ways to get creative with this tree remnant. Using the stump as the medium for a wood carving or turning it into a planter are just two examples of ways to repurpose a tree stump.
