"The team at Tree Surgeon Atlanta were wonderful! There were prompt, professional and kind. We had two large trees near our house that needed to go due to termite damage and rotting. They were careful and strategic with their process. The trees were taken down and removed within a few hours. Thank you all so much for taking care of us!"

"I watched the team the whole time they were working. The gentleman who did the majority of the tree cutting was an artist. The precision with which he could drop a tree amazed me. They had no wiggle room where the trees were between two houses and power lines. Yet they were all dropped precisely. One of the trees had to be brought down in sections and again it was a precise process. The cleanup after the cutting was good. Tree removal can be a messy job with lots of lawn damage but this team minimized the lawn damage and cleaned up before they left. They were fast and efficient and amazing to watch. My neighbors were so impressed they also requested quotes from AC for tree removal. No regrets at all."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

For safety reasons, leaning trees are best removed by a professional, as they may often tear away from the hinge, causing you to lose control over where the tree falls. If you choose to cut down a tree leaning slightly, avoid cutting off root protrusions before you start. Make your hinge a little longer than usual by cutting it deeper (up to 30% of the diameter) and applying a wedge into the felling cut on the side the tree is leaning. Stand away from the direction the tree leans while making your felling cut.

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

Since each tree is different, it’s impossible to say how long a dead tree can remain on your property. While it could be days, months, or even years, it’s highly likely that, at some point, the tree will fall. In the meantime, dying or dead trees can become a haven for pests, so it’s best to have them removed sooner rather than later.

Planting trees far enough from your foundation will protect your home from root damage, but if you’re dealing with existing trees, you can still guard against roots. Root barriers form a physical boundary that will prevent roots from encroaching on your foundation and can help save you from expensive foundation repair costs.
