"These guys were excellent. Daniel is very communicative and so helpful for the fencing process. We got our fence well under price compared to other companies and was installed within 1 week of signing the contract. Will be reaching out for more landscaping and recommending to anyone looking for similar work!"

"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!"

"Sam is wonderful. We needed a large pine brought down and the stump ground to accommodate a concrete pad for a shed going in quickly. He managed to fit us into his schedule to be just ahead of the concrete work. And his price was on par with another guy who wasn't letting me know his availability. I caught him just as he was finishing up. He told me the power lines were a challenge and that they broke a small landscape light (I had planned to have them removed anyway). Later, while prepping the area, my concrete guy called-- there still was a network of large roots that needed to come out. I called Sam and mentioned that I understood this was beyond the scope of work, but had I known while he was on site, we would have added to the bid. He understood my point and came out at the crack of dawn and took care of it! And, he'd only charge me for the rental of the stump grinder, no labor. This man is all above board, hard working, very knowledgable, and easy to work with. He could have abandoned the remaining work, but he didn't! I hired him to take down another large box elder tree, this time on HIS schedule in the winter, and to prune and treat our old elm in the front yard. My neighbor will likely hire him, too. Sam, the only reason you are a 5.0 is because there is nothing higher!!!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The best tools for tree removal include a chainsaw for large trees, an ax for notching and cutting down small trees, and a wedge to help control the direction a tree falls in. A hatchet can be useful for very small trees, but won’t be effective for medium to large trees. 

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.

Since overwatering can harm mature trees just as much as a lack of water, it’s important to know the signs of an overwatered tree. If your tree’s leaves are yellowing, wilting, or dropping leaves, it’s likely that you’re overwatering. Other common signs include rotting, fungi, soggy soil, soft or peeling bark, falling leaves, and brittle roots. 

If you realize that you’ve been overwatering your mature tree, stop watering and give the soil time to dry out. Then moving forward, increase time between watering sessions. 

The costs vary from $250 to $5,000 per tree, depending on the size, complexity of the trimming, and labor.

Finding a reliable arborist starts with researching specialists in your area and checking their licensing and certifications. Use online resources like the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to conduct research on each company. Next, contact the arborist and ask the following questions to see whether they are the right fit for your project:

  • Do you handle or specialize in dealing with the issue I’m having?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Do you have any third-party certifications?

  • What equipment and strategies do you plan to use?
