"Although I hired a different team to complete the job, David from Lord’s Light Logging & Tree Service came to give me a free estimate on the work I needed done. He was on time for the consultation, professional and thorough with the quote he provided, even itemizing each part of the job upon my request. He gave me and excellent quote that was very fair for all the work I needed done. I will consider this David and this company for my future tree service needs as I believe the value for the service they provide will be hard to beat. David was also very easy and pleasant to interact with. Thank you David for making the trip down to give me this excellent quote."

"All Green Tree Service has done several jobs for me. Each with excellent results. First was removal of large Poplar trees. This job was very difficult due to there close vicinity to house and garage. Second was removal of several large Junipers, which after 40 years of growth had taken over my yard. Third was removal of a small orchard of approximately 30 trees. These jobs were done quickly and efficiently. Clean up was amazing. Joe and his crew work hard and are very professional. All Green Tree Service is a great combination of price and quality of work. Thank you Joe and crew. Rick B."
Yes, forestry mulching can grind stumps, but the level of effectiveness depends on the equipment used. Drum mulchers can break down smaller stumps, but larger or deep-rooted stumps may require a dedicated stump grinder for complete removal. If full stump removal is necessary for replanting or construction, additional excavation may be needed. Always check with your forestry mulching provider to confirm whether they offer stump grinding and if their equipment is suitable for your specific needs.
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.
How often and long you should water a tree depends on the species and if it is mature or newly planted. The amount of water is also based on the tree's size. A good rule of thumb is approximately 5 gallons per inch of the trunk's diameter.
Adjusting watering to the recommended suggestions for the tree type and weather conditions is vital. For instance, watering trees during a drought is necessary, and you may need to water more frequently than usual.
Permits are often required for large tree removals, especially in urban areas or for protected species, ensuring regulation compliance and neighbor safety.
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.
