"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. The price was fair and the communication throughout was excellent."

"I had a 90 foot oak tree that was infested with ants and two pine trees that had some damage. Danny and his crew removed the oak tree and treated the stump and the two pine trees. The Oak tree was next to a new privacy fence. There was no damage to the fence and just minor turf damage, where huge limbs landed. I was amazed at how quickly they were able to take down the oak tree. Would gladly call them back if I needed more work done. In addition to the fair price, I appreciated William's (the owner) honesty and politeness."

"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."

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review for Artistic Touch Tree Service We recently hired Artistic Touch Tree Service, owned and operated by Chad, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the entire experience. It was very easy to obtain an estimate from Chad, and we worked with his office manager, Becki, to coordinate the details. We let them know what we wanted done and that we were in no hurry — scheduling the work 4 to 6 weeks out was perfectly fine. Four homes on our cul-de-sac coordinated together for various tree projects. Some had trees removed with firewood left behind and stacked neatly, while others requested all debris to be hauled away and shredded for mulch. Chad arrived with a professional crew of about nine people who worked hard for roughly four and a half hours. They removed eight trees, trimmed six more, and cleaned up so thoroughly that you’d never know they had been there. The price was extremely reasonable, especially compared to similar work I’ve had done in the past. The team operated safely and efficiently, with three climbers carefully topping and lowering trees to avoid any damage to nearby trees, our deck, or neighboring properties. Chad was professional, knowledgeable, and accommodating. He knew exactly how to trim each tree — whether lightly or more moderately — and happily handled a few additional requests we made on the day of the job. All four homeowners were extremely satisfied and would highly recommend Artistic Touch Tree Service to anyone. We already plan to have them back next year to trim our ornamental trees. It was also great to learn that Chad and his team have done work for our homeowners association, neighboring subdivisions, multiple cities around Central Indiana, and even for the State of Indiana. A first-class experience from start to finish!"

"Corey Allen had delays in getting to my home after the job was bid based on inclement weather, but arrived as promised this past Tuesday. They did a beautiful job in removing the trees and thoroughly cleaning up the debris. He was very careful not to damage my yard with their big equipment. It was a terrific job at a fair price. I would recommend him to anyone."

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Dave and his crew for a tree and stump removal job, and I can not recommend their services enough. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. They were incredibly professional and kept their word on arrival time, which is always a plus. One of the things I appreciated the most was their willingness to go above and beyond. Since I wanted to save money, I asked them to leave the debris as it was after the job, so I could handle the cleanup on my own. Instead, they tidied up the entire site and piled everything neatly, making it much easier for me to manage it over time. The quality of work was top-notch. They handled the trees and stumps efficiently and with great care, completing the job quicker than I had expected. Their expertise was evident, and it gave me confidence in the service they provided. On top of that, the cost was very reasonable for the level of service I received, making the whole experience extremely valuable."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Rock salt or Epsom salt can damage and kill tree roots over several weeks and can even assist in removing the tree's stump. However, you need to drill holes or cut into the stump and surface tree roots to inject them properly with the salt. Repeat the process every two weeks until the roots visibly rot away.

The best tool to cut trees is a chain saw. You can adjust your chain saw to the correct size based on the size of the branches, offering you the fastest and cleanest cut for medium- to large-sized trees. Depending on the type of chainsaw you use, you can cut through larger trees than you would with a more manual tool like an ax.

Completely topping a plum tree is a risky business. Cut too much, and you’ll kill your tree. That said, you do need to trim the top of your tree to encourage bushy growth, maintain your tree’s vase shape, and limit size. 

A plum tree's central leader (or trunk) should never extend more than 3 feet above the highest branch. When you first plant your tree, cut the central leader so it’s 2 to 3 feet tall. As it grows, cut it back 12 to 20 inches until it reaches its desired height. Never prune more than one-third of the new growth.

Whether tree roots will continue to grow after a tree has been cut down depends on the species. Some tree roots will eventually die because they can no longer get nutrients through photosynthesis. However, other species that reproduce through root sprouts can continue to grow and produce new sprouts for seven years or more. For example, the roots of elms, ficus, and willows tend to regrow aggressively, while the roots of pines, oaks, and maples will typically die. To determine if a root system is still active, look for new sprouts on the old trunk, stump, or any exposed roots.

Yes, it is highly recommended to remove tree stumps. Leaving them in the ground can lead to several problems, as they are not only unsightly but can also reduce your property's value. Stumps can obstruct landscaping plans, make mowing difficult, and hinder new growth. More importantly, they are prime breeding grounds for pests like termites, ants, and mice, which can spread to your home and cause costly damage to its wood and foundation. Stumps also attract fungi and diseases that can infect other healthy trees and plants in your yard. As a stump decays, it might sprout new, unwanted shoots. While removing a stump is an investment, it prevents these potential issues and enhances the safety, health, and appearance of your landscape.
