"I can highly, and without reservation recommend Limbs and Things for any and all of your landscaping needs and desires. The owners, Emille and Danielle are passionate about getting it right, and are personable and attentive to their customer’s ideas and concerns. They’re good listeners. As seasoned arborists, they have a deep knowledge of trees, as well as smaller plantings. Emille also has a talent and obsession for incorporating boulders and decorative stone into landscape that ultimately looks natural and unique. Size is no object as well. They built two rock walls on my property, and arranged over 70 tons of boulders into two natural-looking retaining walls across the front of my property. We’re planning a waterfall and pond for my back patio area starting next Spring. Danielle makes sure that her billing is itemized and organized, so their customers know exactly where their money is going, and in this economy, that’s always a good thing. Oh, and they do snow removal as well, so plan ahead for next Winter. Rick H. in Loveland CO"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

The average lifespan of an oak tree is 100 to 300 years, so long as it isn’t impacted by diseases like sudden oak death. Some species will last shorter or longer, depending on where you live.

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.

Horticulturist is a broad term for any type of plant and soil expert. An arborist, meanwhile, specializes in all aspects of tree care. You should hire an arborist when you need assistance with tree-related tasks, such as pruning large trees, removing trees, diagnosing a sick tree, or emergency tree services. Horticulturists aren’t qualified to handle those types of tasks.

Light-bark trees are most notorious for producing lots of sap when wounded. These varieties include maples, birches, poplars, dogwoods, magnolias, and elms, and they will bleed more when the trees are dormant. That’s why it’s a good idea to prune them in the summer months rather than waiting until winter.

Usually, trees cannot grow back after their stump has been ground, but some very hearty types of trees can. For example, if you have a black locust or Redford pear, the grinding will need to go deep to prevent them from growing back. Ask your tree service or stump removal expert whether your tree can resprout after its stump is ground down.
