"Mark did a great job. He's a very hard worker and efficient. He's also easy to talk to - explains what needs to be done and why. He trimmed a palm tree, did root grinding, fixed a broken pipe and cleaned up nicely. REASONABLE PRICING. We'll be hiring him again. ."

"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 -"

"Professional hard working tree experts. Marcus was extremely good about keeping in touch about when him and the guys would be out to do the work. They had quite a job to do removing a dead palm tree and cleaning out another palm tree. Then we were concerned about our beautiful oak tree. Kerry a 30 year plus arborist diagnosed it and treated the same day. We are extremely happy with the work they did for us and would recommend them for any size job. They are our official tree guys.

"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

If executed correctly your tree should survive after being transplanted to a new spot. However, effective transplanting requires six months, careful root pruning, safe transport to the new location, and replanting in prime soil conditions. You’ll also need an appropriately sized root ball for a complete tree transplant. A good rule of thumb is that, for every inch in diameter, your tree’s root ball needs to be around 11 inches. So a tree with a diameter of six inches needs a root ball of approximately 66 inches.

If you’re planning on keeping the tree, unless the roots are invasive, there’s no need to remove them, as doing so can cause damage to the tree. If the tree has been cut down and the stump and roots are left, grinding and removing the stump can cause root decay for some species. For other species, the stump and roots will need to be removed to prevent pests, disease, and possible tree regrowth.

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.

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.

According to scientists at Penn State University, spotted lanternflies do not typically kill the trees and plants they feed on, but they can cause branches and segments to die off. However, they have been found to kill cultivated grapes, which can have devastating consequences for vineyard owners and regions that heavily rely on vineyards to create jobs and generate revenue. They have also killed the Ailanthu altissima, known as the tree of heaven, though this is classified as a noxious and invasive weed tree.
