"Chris, the owner, was gracious, and very knowleadgable - and top-notch experienced in this line of work. He was trustworthy in handling a huge task as ours - we had two very large trees removed by another company , but the entire stumps were not well done. Therefore, we had to hire a proficient master like Chris to tackle the job. This company is "thumbs up" all the way. I am definitely spreading the word that this is the very top best to deal with. Thank you Chris! ---Mrs. B -"

"Within 30 minutes of submitting my info on Home Advisor, I had 3 tree service companies respond, and all 3 came out to give quotes within a day. We chose Southern Tree Service LLC because they offered the most for the most reasonable price. Project included 5 100-foot pine trees and one oak. This tree service is amazing, professional and they had all the tools to do the job with ease. A bucket truck was used for 5 of the trees which were extremely tall and very close to a shed. They tied off branches and lowered them and never touched the shed. The last tree needed a climber because the bucket truck couldn't reach it. It was amazing to watch these guys. Chain saws were well maintained and cut through the trees like butter. They had large trailers for debris and a great Kubota loader to move debris. At the end of the day, a "rake brigade" (about 5 guys with rakes) moved through the area and cleaned everything up. 2 of my neighbors also hired these guys to do some work for them while they were there. The stump grinder guy was a sub-contractor who followed up the next day. We added several stumps to the original 2 that we had contracted and the price was super reasonable. Great guys with excellent tools for large jobs, professional, polite, licensed and insured. I would recommend this company to anyone and we plan to use them in the future for more tree removal."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

If a tree stump is removed properly, the chances of a tree growing back are low. However, if a tree has a robust root system, roots can sometimes sprout and someday grow into a tree. The chance of regrowth will depend on several factors such as the type of tree, soil quality, and strength of the root system. In general, it is not recommended to plant a tree where a stump was removed.

In the short term, you’ll have a lot of fallen trees to deal with. Tree removal services costs typically start at $200 per tree and increase based on species and size. Then, you’ll have to deal with the loss of trees: That means a loss of shade and a greater risk of rain runoff and erosion. Also, you’ll miss out on the health and aesthetic benefits of having trees on your property, which could even affect the resale value of your home.

That being said, cutting down a tree it’s not always a bad idea. Trees growing too close to rooftops can present fire hazards or debris problems. You may need to remove diseased or dying trees to prevent future issues.
