"I loved working with Justin and his wife Stephanie. Both of them are professional and have great personalities. Justin knew more about the trees in m yard and how to properly trim and care for them than anyone I have used in the past. His prices were reasonable. If I could give them 10 stars I would. I highly recommend this company. They are officially my new tree people moving forward."

"If you’re looking for a landscaping company you can actually trust—stop searching and call All American Lawn Care & Landscaping. We hired them to install sod around our new patio, and I can honestly say this is one of the best contractor experiences we’ve ever had. The difference in our yard is night and day. The sod is perfectly laid, the ground was prepped the right way, and everything looks full, green, and professionally done. But what impressed me most wasn’t just the result—it was how they operate. They showed up when they said they would, worked hard the entire time, paid attention to the details most companies miss, and treated our home with real care and respect. In a world where it’s hard to find reliable, honest companies… these guys stand out. No shortcuts. No excuses. Just excellent work. If you’re in the Lakeland area and even thinking about sod or landscaping, do yourself a favor and call them first. You’ll be glad you did."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The best way is to start controlling tree height long before it grows too large, via careful pruning through the years. But that’s not always possible. If a tree has become too high or too large, use selective pruning to remove the most troublesome branches, one by one, without topping the tree. Gently shaping a tree like this can, over time, correct problems. You can also find growth inhibitors to spray on a tree to stop it from growing too rapidly, but use these sparingly if at all.

Surface-level tree roots might only pose a small threat, such as being a tripping hazard or obstacle when you mow your lawn. But if mature tree roots start growing in the direction of your home’s foundation or plumbing system, it could be a real problem. Cutting small tree roots out before they grow too large can keep your home safe without removing the whole tree.

Stay inside or well away until the storm passes. Don’t go outside to inspect the tree until the weather clears, especially if the tree is on a hill or isolated in a field. Lightning often strikes the same easily-accessed places multiple times, and you could be a new target. If a lightning strike causes a noticeable fire, alert emergency services. When the storm is over, take a closer look to gauge the damage done.

In general, trees should be planted no closer than 15 to 20 feet from your foundation. For larger trees with far-reaching roots like maples, oaks, or poplars, a good guide is to plant as many feet from your home as the tree’s height is expected to reach at maturity. Some trees, like elms and willows, should only be planted far from where their roots may encounter sewer or water lines.

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.
