"We hired Arborist LLC in Bloomington, Illinois for a hazardous tree removal near our home, and the difference in professionalism was immediately clear. Their certified arborist took the time to explain the structural risks, safety plan, and options before any work began. The crew followed strict safety practices, protected our property, and completed the job with precision and care. We never felt rushed or pressured into unnecessary work.

"We had a very large tree that needed to be removed in our backyard with very tight excess to it. Deven and the crew did a great job, no, they did an excellent job. From cutting down the tree to removal of all the limbs and grinding out the two stumps it was done very professionally. This company does and follows thru with everything they promise to do. We are so happy with the respectful way they treated us and our property. I would highly recommend this company. They are Great!"

"I had major tree trimming that needed to be done. These were huge oak trees 40 to 60 feet high, probably more. They brought in heavy equipment and a bucket crane and a very experienced and very friendly crew. It was a huge job. They arrived on time and were highly efficient and artistic in how they cut these trees. The branches were very large and complicated to reach over the house. They did truly an extraordinary job. I was amazed at how well it looked and the quality of the work, They even swept the yard clean of all debris. I very highly recommend this company."

"Landon, Cole, and their team did a wonderful job swapping out our old wooden deck boards with beautiful composite decking. They were open and communicative about the timeline, did a throughout job, and were even able to address some of our preexisting structural concerns before beginning the rest of the project. I appreciated them being open to our input and asking our opinions on certain design elements. Very professional and diligent! Would absolutely use them again for any more landscaping projects."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

There are several methods to hollow out a tree stump, and the best one depends on your tools, experience, and priorities. Common methods include using a chisel and hammer, a chainsaw, or burning.

  • Chisel and Hammer: This is often considered the easiest approach for those with limited tools or experience, though it is the most time-consuming.

  • Chainsaw: Using a chainsaw is the fastest method, but it comes with significant safety risks, especially for inexperienced users.

  • Burning: This can be an effective method, but it is not recommended unless you can first drill holes into the stump. Without holes, the stump will be difficult to light and may not burn completely through.

A power drill with at least a ⅜-inch diameter bit can make the job quicker and easier, regardless of the primary method. While you can use a chisel or chainsaw without a drill, it will require more time and effort. Always wear protective goggles and thick gloves, as splinters are an inevitable risk.

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.

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.

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

A tree branch should start to form roots in about three months. It can take about a year for a tree branch to develop roots strong enough to go in the ground. For best results, start several branches because, no matter how closely you follow instructions, they won’t all form roots. Compost any that aren’t thriving.
