"Ascending Tree Service provided excellent tree service. They carefully took down trees over the house and garage. They ground roots and stumps and pulled vines. They cleaned up and left things looking even better than when they arrived. My property looks fantastic! They were prompt and affordable. I highly recommend Johnathan and Ascending Tree Service!"

Customers say: True professional

"These guys are the best. Looked up tree services. Angi showed them as 1 of 4. Jon and Nick responded immediately. Nick came out on Sunday and gave estimate. Said they would be there on a Monday These guys showed up promptly and got to work. These 12 (yes 12) trees were sweet gums which can difficult. The crew got all of them down in pretty short order. Nothing damaged on this end. If you want QUALITY tree service call BIG JON. I will use them again as I have 2 more that will eventually come down. Thanks Jon, Nick and crew. Thanks VETs. Your service to our COUNTRY and Community is appreciated."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

A chainsaw is the best tool to cut down a tree, but you may also use a handsaw or ax. You may also want to use a lopper or pole saw to remove limbs before cutting down the tree. Wear chainsaw chaps and protective gear, including eyewear and earplugs if you use a chainsaw. Again, if you’re unsure about how to use this tool, this project may be one to skip.

Though summer is not ideal, you can do some light pruning during this time of year. Just make sure it’s not excessive. Vigorous pruning will stress the tree and impact next year’s growth. Generally, August to September are the best summer-pruning months, particularly for fruit trees.

The recovery time for pruning depends on how much you prune, the species of tree, and how well you care for it afterward. All trees grow new wood and often sprout additional branches after pruning. Ideally, trees should recover from normal pruning after one or two years. Heavy pruning or slow-growing trees may take several years to fully recover.

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.

Many species, especially when well-established, are not fans of transplantation. You’ll need to decide if you want to risk splashing the cash, understanding that transplantation isn’t always successful. Again, this is where hiring a pro is helpful, as they can give you all the essential info you need to ensure your tree stands a fighting chance.
