"This job went so much smoother than I ever could have hoped. The owner was very prompt, courteous, and professional in all our dealings, the workers were professional.... everything about their work was outstanding. They took less time that I had figured, and hauled away all the wood and left the property in good shape. I highly recommend Progressive Tree Service!!!"

"Nic Tree Service was a great choice! I got quotes from 3 different companies to cut down tree branches hanging over my house and was the lowest quote. The price was fair and got the job done in less than an hour. I will definitely be going with Nic Tree Service again for any tree services needed."

"We hired Chicago Service Source after interviewing and getting quotes from 3 other contractors. The quote was not the lowest but we did feel comfortable and confident in the owner that came out and estimated our project. We are more than pleased with the finished results of our basement. All the contractors suggestions worked out perfectly. The quality of the work is what we were most interested in and they have exceeded our expectations. We will hire Chicago Service Source to Remodel our kitchen next year. Highly recommended contractor"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

The Christmas tree type that smells the best to you will ultimately depend on personal preference. But if that classic Christmas tree smell is important to you, choosing a type of tree known for its scent is a safe bet. Try a balsam fir for a spicy, comforting scent or a Douglas fir for a sweeter smell. You may also like Fraser firs, Scotch pines, and blue spruces.

Unfortunately, most of the time you’re out of luck if a neighbor’s tree blocks your view. You don’t have a right to a view, so if you have a tree that’s near the property line but on your neighbor’s property, you can’t cut it to be able to take in a majestic mountain or a beautiful sunrise. In some communities, however, there are ordinances protecting scenic views. Checking into your local laws can help you determine your rights in this situation.

You should plant trees at least 15 to 20 feet away from your house, and more if the tree will grow large and spread its limbs. Trees pose several dangers to houses when planted too close. They can litter the roof with leaves and branches, create fire hazards, make a ladder for larger pests, and even damage the foundation as their roots grow.

The fastest ways to remove a tree stump are by grinding it or burning it.

Stump grinding is often the quickest method, with professionals able to chip away a stump and its roots within a single session. You have the option to hire a professional stump removal service or rent a stump grinder to do it yourself. However, it's important to note that these machines can be large, difficult to transport, and dangerous to operate without prior experience. For safety reasons, hiring a local arborist or landscape specialist is often recommended.

Burning is another fast option. Before you begin, check your local burn laws. The process involves drilling holes into the stump, filling them with vegetable oil, and waiting 24 to 48 hours. Afterward, you can add charcoal bricks to the surface and light the fire, which must be attended at all times.

For a more affordable but much slower alternative, you can use potassium nitrate pellets to accelerate the natural decomposition process. This method typically takes four to six months.

When a palm tree no longer produces new fronds and old fronds start turning yellow-brown, that’s a sign the tree is dying. However, transplanted palm trees can show these signs for the first several months as they re-establish themselves. It’s best to keep watering and not give up on the palm tree until a couple of seasons have passed and you’re sure it’s not coming back to life.
