"There are not enough superlatives to describe the work ethics and quality of service that Eli and Dan perform. Weeks of persistent wind had brought down so many limbs and sticks from my 2 big old sycamore trees, I could not keep up with the work of cleaning up after them, so in a moment of utter exhaustion, I searched for a tree service to consider taking them down. Eli called and came in very short order to assess the job, and right off the bat, he asked if I was a veteran because they like to give a 10% veterans discount. Well, I am a veteran, but nobody had ever asked me that before with any service that I had ever used for anything. My spur of the moment decision to get those trees down was one of the best I have ever made. I have never seen such hard working, considerate and respectful young men, and they were diligent at cleaning up, leaving the area looking much better than it had before. I am extremely impressed and very pleased,. A month later, a big limb fell from on old tree in my front yard took out my power line and made a big mess,, And this happened after the power company had already trimmed out what they considered threatening limbs. This time there was NO question about who to call. And once again, Eli and Dan did the job with excellence and left the area better and cleaner than it had been before. Some of the limbs on that tree had begun to hollow out, so the potential for the next one to fall on or thru the roof was very real, but thankfully averted. I can most certainly and wholeheartedly recommend them for your tree service job,."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

Salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, and burning can all help dissolve a tree stump. You can also bury the tree stump in soil or mulch to help it rot naturally. Killing a tree stump prevents future regrowth, but you may also remove it by digging it out or grinding it.

You don’t always need a permit to grind a stump, but you might need one depending on your location and the stump’s surroundings. Permits are often needed if the stump is part of a protected tree species, near public areas or utility lines, or close to environmentally sensitive zones like wetlands. Some cities also regulate noise and work hours. Always check local rules before grinding, and contact your city or county office if you're unsure.

Using Epsom salt to kill a tree stump typically takes between six and 12 months. While this may seem like a long time, it is significantly faster than the natural decomposition process, which can take up to seven years. This method is a viable DIY option for stumps that do not pose an immediate hazard. If you need a faster solution, you can hire a professional for stump removal or grinding, though this may cause more damage to the surrounding ground.

The best time to cut down a tree is during its dormant season, typically in winter or early spring, after all the leaves have fallen. Removing a tree during this period is advantageous for several reasons. Frozen ground helps secure the tree stump, protects the surrounding landscape from damage, and reduces the risk of the tree falling in an unintended direction. With the leaves gone, there is less risk of the tree's foliage getting tangled with other trees. Additionally, since this is often a slower season for tree services, you may be able to hire a professional at a lower rate. This dormant period is also the best time for tree trimming.
