"Chris was fantastic to work with. I texted him a photo of the tree and the area where he was going to do the work. He replied with a price, we coordinated on a date to do the work. He showed up the afternoon before to do an outdoor inspection and confirm that things were good, and was on time the next day. He and his crew worked hard and took down the tree with a smile on their faces. They hauled away all of the debris and cleaned up the site. If you're in need of tree work, look no further than Chris and his team at Allcare."

"I received a call back from TropicGreen Lawn and Tree Care almost immediately. After a brief description of the condition of my trees, Mr. Sieber was able to make a preliminary diagnosis of the problem. He set a specific time to come to my home, none of the "noon to 4PM" nonsense and he was here at the appointed time. He evaluated my trees, confirmed his original diagnosis and gave me a firm bid which was extremely reasonable. After the work was completed he gave me solid ideas of what I can do to prevent future problems and improve the health of my trees, shrubs and lawn. Great job!! Definitely will use his services in the future."

Tree Service 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.

It could be anywhere from weeks to years for a dead tree to fall. A dead tree falls based on its weight, how it leans, the state of its roots, the state of decay, and what local windstorms are like, among other factors. Since it’s hard to predict the fall’s timing, it’s important to cut down a dead tree quickly and avoid any unpleasant surprises.

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

For small trees, tree removal should take just a couple of hours to complete. Assume that a mid-sized tree will take between four and eight hours, depending on the extent of the equipment required and the health of the tree. Remember to add up to two hours for stump removal. Larger trees could take as long as one or two working days, about eight hours each.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.
