"If Angi provided 6-star rating for top tree removal service, Elite seamless gutter of Spring Valley, Il would get it from this East area resident. How about taking down two 80-plus foot, very challenging backyard trees, including stamp removal, and meticulous clean up in five hours, finishing well after sunset? the six-man crew were as good as you can get, and they came at a very acceptable cost. One neighbor watched their work and hired them for his project. Equipment was top-notched. Look no further."

"Excellent service... the RC team listens to your need and offers alternatives for consideration. We have used their service for full tree/stump removal on trees very close to house, as well as tree trimming of mature trees. In addition, they have helped clean-up rogue trees along farm fence lines. Very collaborative in their business style with timely, cost-effective execution. Top tier!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

You can use a felling ax to chop down a tree by following the same prep and steps as a chainsaw, but be prepared to use some muscle. For trees bigger than 7 inches in diameter, it can take some time and serious strength to cut down a tree using just an ax. 

Yes, forestry mulching can grind stumps, but the level of effectiveness depends on the equipment used. Drum mulchers can break down smaller stumps, but larger or deep-rooted stumps may require a dedicated stump grinder for complete removal. If full stump removal is necessary for replanting or construction, additional excavation may be needed. Always check with your forestry mulching provider to confirm whether they offer stump grinding and if their equipment is suitable for your specific needs.

Ideally, you should wait to prune until trees have gone dormant in late fall to early winter. The worst times to prune trees are early fall and late summer, as pruning them so close to dormancy makes it difficult for the tree recover before it goes dormant for the season.

Many gardeners charge an hourly rate for their services, and your total cost will depend on the amount of services and the experience of the gardener. Gardeners with basic experience charge between $20 and $30 per hour, while a more experienced gardener can charge as much as $60 to $88 per hour.

The cost of lawn mowing is about $125, which you might need on a weekly or biweekly basis. However, the cost of soil testing averages about $1,450, which should only be done every three to five years. 

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.
