Razorback Stump Removal offers a specialist stump grinding service (we do not take down whole trees) throughout the Chicago Northwest suburbs and beyond. Using a modern grinder, our equipment can reach seemingly inaccessible places to grind any size of stump down to from six to twelve inches below the surface. You can then use your ground for normal gardening or landscaping, and you can even use the mulch produced from the process to fertilize your newly reclaimed garden!

"We have used Mike and his AAA before. He did a great job in the past, did again today. We had 2 large, old Norway Maples and 1 large old Silver Maple all pruned and raised. Lots of dead branches, overgrowth and other branches encroaching on and over our house and also our neighbors. We also had a long arborvitae hedge trimmed. Again, lots of pruning involved. All of Mike's workers did a great job. Very knowledgeable. And Mike was there the whole time, consulting with us as each tree or hedge was about to be worked on. One neighbor saw Mike and his team's work and asked Mike to set up a tree removal on his property. As said, we've used in the past and will again."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Yes, pruning makes trees stronger because it fosters proper growth, weight distribution, and balance of the crown. By increasing the structural integrity of the tree through pruning, it’s less likely to experience disease, pests, broken limbs, and storm damage. Pruning the right branches and limbs is key to improving a tree’s strength and balance.

Professionals ensure safety, prevent property damage, and handle debris efficiently.

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.

A tree growing close to a house can cause problems, but cutting it down isn’t always the best solution. Trees planted close to your home could damage your foundation as their roots grow. In addition, they can drop large branches on your house, make it easier for critters and insects to access your home, and encourage mold growth. But if the tree has been there for a long time, it may not pose a risk to your foundation, and it could be more beneficial—not to mention cheaper—to strategically trim it instead. Your best bet is to consult an arborist for advice.

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.
