"Bearco. Tree Service provided exceptional service from start to finish! Their team was incredibly professional, arriving on time for the estimate and the job itself, and clearly explained every step of the tree removal process. They handled the large, difficult trees in my backyard with incredible care, ensuring minimal damage to my property while meticulously cleaning up afterwards.

"Angel Oak's service was quick and professional. They cleaned up fallen branches as they went, and cleaned up leftover branches when they were done. My only complaint was that they did not call ahead as they had agreed to do. I asked for a day's notice so that I could coordinate with our neighbors whose drive Angel Oak needed access to. Luckily our one neighbor was home and able to move vehicles out of their drive. Otherwise, I would absolutely hire Angel Oak again and would recommend their service to others."

"The crew did a great job at minimizing collateral damage and the clean up was very good. All the dead limbs that had been identified several weeks earlier were removed. The cherry tree ended up being too dangerous to climb so it was stump cut and placed in such a way that nothing was damaged in the effort. I have used Cory and his crew several times in the past and they are our go to tree service provider."

"North Country Tree Service arrived on time. Immediately got to work cutting down three larger trees in our back yard. The job was done in three hours. All trees cut down, trees shredded and all debris pickup up and removed. Our grandkids were here and watched them consistently, staff were friendly and kind. Price was reasonable, work superb. Would recommend them for any job. Will use again if needed. Thank you for fantastic service."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Cutting down a tree next to power lines is never a DIY job, and it’s a good idea to contact your utility company first. In most cases, the utility company will need to take care of any tree problems within 10 to 15 feet of power lines. If you want to remove the tree for aesthetic reasons, hire a pro to do the job. Trying to cut trees near power lines yourself can create many safety hazards, and you could be liable if you inadvertently cause damage to electrical equipment.

Make sure the tree roots soak around a day before you dig the tree up for the transplant. Keep the roots wet while the tree is above ground. After the transplant is finished, provide consistent water every day for the first month or so. You don’t want to overwater the tree, but you do want to keep the roots wet so they can thrive in their new environment.

If you aren’t sure what you’re doing, be very careful when cutting mature tree roots (roots larger than 2 inches). Root cutting and pruning can affect both a tree’s stability and its ability to nourish itself. Issues during root cutting can result in damage or injury. 

It’s recommended you call in a pro to help, unless it’s a very small tree and you aren’t worried about the prospect of losing the tree.

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.

In most cases, leaving tree roots underground is not a problem if the stump has been removed or ground below the soil. However, some larger roots may decompose, leaving dents in your soil. Additionally, some aggressive trees, including willows, oaks, elms, maples, and poplars may grow back from roots. Large aggressive trees with established root systems are more likely to grow back.
