"I contacted this company to remove and replace a palm tree in the front of my house and to remove a large hard wood tree in the rear. The contact person is Frank, the owner. He is very involved in all aspects of the project. He keeps in contact by phone and supervises the work while it is in progress. His men are very friendly and expert in their work. I found this company to be extremely easy to work with and very professional. I would recommend them any time."

Customers say: Quality work

"I hired ASAP to trim the limbs of a few trees. A couple of them are very difficult to reach. ASAP provide me with a fair estimate and were available to start working within a couple of days. There was some confusion about the right equipment needed to do the job so the workers were idle for some time waiting for the equipment. That caused the job to be completed in two days instead of one. But what I liked the most is the quick responsiveness of the people in the office. They also trimmed the limbs exactly as I requested. They retrieved the trash in the morning of the 3rd day. They left it a little dirty (leaves and small sticks) after the pick up. The workers were polite and respectful. Overall it was a very good experience and will definitely hire them again."

"Excellent service. I called with an emergency water main break issue that a massive tree's overgrown roots caused and blocked access to the break. Patric came out same day and worked hard late in the day to clear a complicated pathway to the pipe. Would absolutely hire again, excellent to work with, nice and understanding, great communicator"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

Costs range from $500 to $5,000 per tree, depending on size, location, and accessibility.

You may need permission to take a tree down. Check with your local ordinances about rules regarding tree removal and to gain any necessary permits. Check with your local ordinances or the fire department if you plan to burn the stump. Make sure you have all the steps in place before removing the tree, or contact a local tree removal service.

Leaving the tree stump and letting it rot is never a good idea, as this leads to insect infestations and other frustrations. Additionally, decomposing trunks are at risk for diseases that spread out to the remaining plants and trees in the yard, thus ruining your whole outdoor aesthetic. It's usually best to remove the stump at the same time you remove the tree.

In most cases, leaving tree roots underground is not a problem if the stump has been removed or ground below the soil. However, some larger roots may decompose, leaving dents in your soil. Additionally, some aggressive trees, including willows, oaks, elms, maples, and poplars may grow back from roots. Large aggressive trees with established root systems are more likely to grow back.
