"Titan did a magnificent job on my property during the past week. I needed the following done: Grading work on my 3 acre property and three different types of rocks delivered. I also needed additional black dirt brought in to make it perfect. From start to finish the communication was excellent with Will. He let me know what time they would get to my job and everything that was going on during the work process. This is something that a lot of contractors just fail to do in my past experiences. They provide top notch equipment, with many different attachments for various types of jobs during the entire process. This ensures that the job is done correctly, the first time! Lastly, customer service could not be better. They (Will and Tim) stayed with the job until I was completely satisfied. Always keeping a great attitude no matter how many questions I asked. Even going the extra nine yards finishing the job better than I expected."

"It went great. They started in the afternoon on Monday the 17th and worked for about an hour. They got a great start. They came back Tuesday morning the 18th exactly when they said they would and finished the rest of the job in about another hour and a half. I was amazed at how skilled they were. They did an incredible job getting the huge limbs off our garage and one large limb off our house. They all were professional and friendly and efficient. They did an amazing job cleaning up as well. I highly recommend Arbor Way tree service."

"It is very refreshing to have a real family owned & operated company come & do such a great job at a reasonable price. An not be a company that claims to be family owned & operated, to find the only family is sitting behind a desk, not doing the real labor. When I say this; I mean at Jason's Tree Service, the whole family is involved running this company from Jason, his wife, bothers, & son. All of them are very courteous, kept me updated on what they were doing, asked me what I thought, & what else I wanted them to do. I called Jason's Tree Service yesterday at 7:45 AM. He answered & told me he was on his way to bid another job, then needed to check on another his crew was working on. I asked for a general idea for when he may arrive, so he can look at what needed done. Which he told me around 8:45AM, at 8:35AM Jason's wife called to let me know exactly when Jason would arrive, which was within minutes of the original time I was told. To gain access for his equipment to remove this pile of tree Centurylink left in my backyard. Jason & his wife, went with me to help get permission from the school in my backyard. Jason helped explain to the school what needed to be done & why. The guy at the school was nervous about letting them onto the school's property, which Jason's wife seen this & immediately shown the school their insurance, bonding, & any other legal document needed. The guy at the school ended up calling the school commissioner & provided Jason permission to gain access of his equipment in pure, minutes. Jason & his wife working as a team, sped up the process of getting permission greatly. To make a very long story short. I was so impressed with how both Jason & his wife handled the school, their punctuality, & the courteous calls updating me on arrival times. On the very same day I called for help, they came. Besides removing the pile of cut up tree Centurylink left me to deal with, I ended up having Jason's remove another large tree, then heavily trimmed, & raise up two other very large trees. All that desperately needed done. I can't say enough good things about Jason's Tree Service, to really explain their outstanding ability to run a business, great communications, doing a very good job, & made sure i was totally satisfied before they left... Everything was spotless once they left, Jason's wife even returned a call, in seconds, when I accidentally missed dialed them after they left to see if I was OK with everything. I highly recommend Jason's Tree Service & from now on, I will only use them, even if it was an emergency & I had to wait my turn. I would still only call Jason & his family. Thanks to Jason & his family, I now have a very nice looking yard, that has both sun & shad, while not having to worry about my trees for a long time."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

It is possible to burn out a tree stump if it is dried out and in an area of your property with a large buffer. Drill holes in the stump and dig around the base so it burns more easily. Then, build a small campfire on top using kindling and firewood. You’ll need enough to keep the fire going for many hours to completely burn out the stump, especially if it’s large. 

Monitor the fire closely to ensure it doesn’t spread, and have a hose on hand if it starts to get out of control. When the fire is out, break apart the burned stump and dig out what’s left of it.  

If this sounds like a good option, learn more about how to burn a tree stump before attempting it, as it does come with risks.

Planting a palm tree close to your home can provide shade while elevating the beauty of your yard. However, there are a few safety concerns to consider before doing so. You’ll want to opt for a smaller tree with a non-invasive root system. Select a species that won’t grow too tall and choose a planting location that won’t damage your home.

After a big storm, you may not be sure if a tree was struck or not. Look for the telltale long scars, like strips or gouges in the bark of the tree, running in sometimes jagged lines down the length of the trunk. These scars will often show vulnerable living wood inside the tree. It’s also common to see scorched or wilted leaves on the side or top of the tree where lightning struck.

The amount of time it takes for a tree trunk to rot depends on several factors, including the tree’s size, species, and environmental conditions. It can take anywhere from a few years to several decades for a tree’s trunk to rot. A tree stump, on the other hand, can take up to 10 years to disappear after it’s decayed naturally.

It takes anywhere from three to seven years for a stump to decompose on its own. This timeframe can depend on the kind of tree and your climate. The lower to the ground the stump is, the faster it rots. If you kill a tree stump with salt, boiling water, herbicide, light deprivation, or burning, the tree stump decomposes faster.
