"I was so impressed with the Sloan Tree team! They were polite and courteous and VERY interested in my specific situation. They were quick and efficient and got a quote back to me immediately. Then on the day the tree came down (they took down a mature ponderosa pine) they arrived on time, were VERY careful with my property and safety, and were again way beyond the curve when it came to friendliness and communication. Finally, when it came to clean up, they were careful to keep things as tidy as possible during the process, and then completely cleaned up the street/sidewalk/yard before leaving. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking to have a tree or stump removed - they are top-notch!!!"

"A. P. took down a very large and dangerous ash tree branch. It was obvious to the arborist, Angel, that the branch would snap back on the cutter if not done properly. He safely brought it to the ground. We are so pleased with A. P.â s prompt and professional service, we hired them to remove a tree stump in the front yard. Weâ re very confident A. P. will do an excellent job. Also, they will call utilitiesâ marking for us. This company knows itâ s business!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

Dead tree branches should be removed, because they can cause the tree to lose nutrients. They can also make the tree more susceptible to disease and pests. Removing dead and diseased branches can help the tree recover and increase the odds of saving a dying tree. Make sure to prune the tree correctly to avoid damaging it further.

All of the tree root removal methods mentioned above are effective on any kind of root, whether it’s still growing or simply needs a gentle nudge to finish decomposing. The only difference is that larger roots tend to be harder to remove and may require multiple chemical treatments as well as manual labor to eradicate.

Tree pruning is a common and helpful tree maintenance technique that involves carefully cutting and trimming unwanted branches so that the tree can continue to grow and thrive. Pruning is done carefully and intentionally. Tree topping is a frowned-upon method that involves removing and cutting most or the entirety of the top of the tree, including structurally important branches.

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.
