"Brian of Sergeant Major Stump Grinding was excellent. I've left a long-detailed review - but I can sum it up here in 3 lines: 1) Easy to work with and professional  2) Great competitive prices / quotes. 3) Did exactly what I asked for and left the site looking better than it did. He is an upbeat guy, who was willing to come out and quote my project on the weekend. He asked if I could text him detailed photos of the stumps, which I did. Based on the pics that I texted him; he was able to quote me via text. This eliminated two trips out to my house, and enabled this project to happen very quickly - which I greatly appreciate! His quote was extremely reasonable, so I agreed to his quote, and he came out at our agreed upon time on Sunday. He was right on time. His equipment was extremely clean, and his safety protocols were excellent - which I appreciated. His stump grinder wasn't that loud, and my wife was able to meet with friends inside the house the entire time that Brian ground the two stumps. His work was extremely neat as well. He asked me where I wanted the wood chip piles from the stumps and I told him where I wanted them. He filled the stump holes and had very neat piles of wood chips for me. He also used a blower and left the job site cleaner than it looked before he got there. I would hire him again in a heartbeat. Thank you! Karl Lund"

"YG Outdoor Services removed over a dozen trees, mostly 50-75’ tall. We hired them after a microburst took down one tree but damaged many more on our large property. They were incredibly efficient and removed the trees with skill. They returned to grind the stumps to clean up the property. Their work included cutting down trees which had snapped due to the storm and were dangerously hung up on other trees (aka widow makers). I would hire them again for any tree work or cleanup needed. Great team."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Tree removal can be quite expensive, especially for larger projects, but you can use the following tips to help keep costs down:

  • Do the yard cleanup afterward yourself

  • Choose to leave the logs on your property and split them yourself

  • Opt to leave the stump in the ground and tackle stump grinding yourself

  • Pull permits for tree removal, if necessary, to avoid fines

  • Pay to have multiple trees removed at once

  • Remove tree in the late winter or early spring during off-season

White vinegar does not kill ivy on trees because its acetic acid concentration is not high enough to overpower it. Vinegar is an effective herbicide for weeds and other plants, but not for the strength of most ivies, including poison ivy and English ivy. You should use an herbicide to kill ivy, such as one with glyphosate, imazapyr, or triclopyr.

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

All of the tree root removal methods mentioned above are effective on any kind of root, whether it’s still growing or simply needs a gentle nudge to finish decomposing. The only difference is that larger roots tend to be harder to remove and may require multiple chemical treatments as well as manual labor to eradicate.

Some trees, such as silver maples, birches, sycamores, and scotch pines, shed their bark naturally. If your tree is not one that does this, it might have fallen prey to pests, fungi, or diseases. It could also simply be suffering from an extreme weather change, such as a snowstorm or heat wave. If you’re still stumped, consulting with a pro can help you diagnose your tree’s specific problem.
