"We had 3 trees cut down and all brush and tree wood removed. They were excellent in their service and right on time and left the yard spotless. No need to look for any other tree company. These guys were friendly and professional. I would use them again. Their prices were excellent."

"Dan and his partner did an excellent job. They worked on multiple trees on my property with great skill and professionalism. There was no debris left behind. They went above and beyond to get 3 huge Hickory trees under control after many years of neglect. They removed a pesky bush and tree stumps and a large tree branch that fell on my property last year. I truly feel better as a property owner to have Dan and his team in my corner. I have before and after photos available."

"Very pleased with BMG Stump Removal. I was pleasantly surprised that I got a call from Ben within minutes of requesting a quote. Ben was not only on time, but he arrived on the same day I requested his service. The job was completed quickly and efficiently. The remote-controlled grinder is awesome."

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, it can be good to remove dead branches from trees. Dead branches can lead to rot in other areas of the tree. They can also cause damage if they fall on a house, shed, fence, car, pool, or other structure or property. However, it’s important that dead branch removal is done safely. If the branch is high in a tree or requires a lift or ladder to access, consider calling a professional tree removal company, as they will have the experience and equipment to do the job safely.

A serrated knife will work for cutting off small palm tree fronds, about 1 inch in diameter. For larger fronds, you will need pruning shears. You may also use a pruning saw, and if your palm tree is especially tall, an extended pole saw can help you reach the brown fronds around the trunk.

If a tree isn’t pruned, it can inhibit proper growth and fruit production, cause damage to both the tree and your property, and create entry points for pests and diseases. Pruning a tree enhances its stability, appearance, shape, and growth. Pruning trees regularly can also save you money long-term by avoiding overgrown or dangerous dying trees.

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.

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