"Outstanding work. We have a medium sized maple tree that had lost several big branches toward the top. They removed the dead wood and trimmed the rest of the tree to strengthen it against further wind damage. We were extremely pleased with the quality of the work. The tree looks great, much better than we had expected. We can highly recommend this company!"

They were ontime, diligent in their work, cleaned up afterwards and price was reasonable. I recommend them. ? - Rocky i 3 months ago They did an excellent job on our fence! I would highly recommend this company. - Kathy M 12 hours ago Daniel was responsive and accommodating from the first phone call! Once Daniel and his crew arrived with all the equipment they needed to remove 3 large pines, and a dead ash, we knew we chose the right company. Every single gentleman that worked at our house was professional, funny, and so obviously well experienced. Watching the teams work was like watching a symphony, they were all in tune with each other, and anticipated the other guys moves. They were very detail oriented, and worked so hard to protect all the areas that needed to be. They took every scrap away, and left the job site almost better than before they arrived. We are so pleased, and will definitely hire them again! We have more trees, and definitely landscaping that needs to be done! Thanks to ALL of you for an exciting Saturday, and a super job well done!

"â­ â­ â­ â­ â­ A Phenomenal Experience with Sloan's Tree Service! I cannot say enough great things about Sloan's Tree Service! From the very beginning, Aric, the owner, and his wife Madison were a delight to work with. They took the time to truly collaborate with us, ensuring that we got exactly what we wanted. They were attentive to our needs and worked within our budget, which was a big plus! Aric and his team exceeded our expectations in every way. Not only did they schedule and perform the work quickly, but the results were outstanding. They removed two large trees and expertly ground the stumps until they were practically non-existent. Additionally, they cut the remaining wood into firewood-length pieces and stacked them, just as we had requested. The brush was completely cleared, and they left our yard looking immaculate. It's hard to believe the transformation our yard underwent in such a short period of time! Aric and Madison were not just fantastic professionals, but also genuinely lovely people. It was an absolute pleasure to meet and work with them. We can't recommend Sloan's Tree Service highly enough! We will certainly be referring them to all our friends, family, and neighbors. I am thrilled to have finally found a go-to "tree guy". Don't hesitate to give them a call â you won't be disappointed!"

"My neighbor had 5 trees removed by them. Watching them work I realized I was watching professionals. I hired them to have 3 very large trees removed from my property and was happy with the work both in speed and price. I will be using them from now on for all my tree service."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

You should not trim an oak tree in the summer. Oak trees are especially susceptible to disease, and open tree wounds are an invitation for beetles that carry tree-killing fungus. If there’s no risk that the oak tree will do damage to your property or hurt someone, it’s best to save the trimming for fall or winter. If you can, seal the wound with latex to prevent fungus from getting inside.

Bradford pear trees bloom in early spring with small white flowers. They typically flower for at least two weeks. In bloom, these trees often emit a foul-smelling odor that’s often compared to rotting fish. Bradford pear trees will sometimes bloom in the fall due to drought or other stress-inducing conditions. 

Tree removal costs typically don’t include stump removal, as that technically falls into a different service. The company you hire may offer the service for an additional fee; ask them if they offer it to ensure you get the best tree stump removal costs possible.

While the fastest way to kill a tree is to simply cut it down, there are several other methods to choose from. You should hire a professional tree removal service to cut down a tree to ensure your personal and property safety. Some slower but effective options include treating or grinding the tree stump or using a basal bark treatment.
