"First to respond to my request for an estimate. Understood exactly what was needed with minimum explanation. Worked well within my schedule, and was extremely prompt.
Very effectively removed piles of wood I had stacked in several places. Removed trees with no damage whatever to house and garage - which was my primary concern.
Ellis Tree Service was concerned with possible damage to sidewalk. Took precautions to prevent that damage, but sidewalk was still cracked. Cracks not really visible until several hours after vendor left, and becoming more visible as weeks pass. Probably not bad enough to require replacement, and I did NOT call to complain.
Left ruts in several places in grass. This was at least in part due to the desire to work within my schedule. Truck was very heavy, and lawn was softer than expected. Nothing that can't be fixed with a little effort - just annoying. A few small limbs on trees in staging areas were broken. Again nothing serious, and something can be fixed with less than an hours' effort.

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Leaf removal costs between $400 and $1,000 per acre on average. Nationally, the cost of leaf removal averages about $350. Cost factors for this project include lawn size, leaf removal method, tree density, location, and the time required to do the job. If your lawn removal service charges based on lawn size, you can expect to pay $0.02 to $0.10 per square foot.

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.

Bradford pear trees bloom in early spring with small white flowers. They typically flower for at least two weeks. In bloom, these trees often emit a foul-smelling odor that’s often compared to rotting fish. Bradford pear trees will sometimes bloom in the fall due to drought or other stress-inducing conditions. 

Generally, no, tree topping isn’t a good technique, and you should avoid using it in most cases. Tree topping may be the only good option to save a tree following severe damage after a storm, but in most other cases, it’s not the right choice. Tree topping can leave trees vulnerable to disease and further damage, and most pros will suggest against it.

Leaving the tree stump and letting it rot is never a good idea, as this leads to insect infestations and other frustrations. Additionally, decomposing trunks are at risk for diseases that spread out to the remaining plants and trees in the yard, thus ruining your whole outdoor aesthetic. It's usually best to remove the stump at the same time you remove the tree.
