"I had a massive oak in my small front yard and an even more massive elm in the back, Both very close to the house, both heavily canopied over the house as well as the neighbor houses on either side...really tight quarters. Out of laziness, I supposed, I hired an outfit I had previously used for some trim work on the oak in the front. Big mistake. After about two weeks, the oak was maybe 65% done and collateral damage on the last day they worked to the tune of about $1500. Fired them. This time I did my due diligence and got about 3 bids to finish the oak and tackle the elm in the back. Heggood's was among the bids and I went with them because of the reviews and a very reasonable bid. Also, Mark Heggood gave the best presentation when he came to give the bid. The crew showed up on a Tuesday and the trees were down and gone and everything cleaned up by Friday afternoon. These guys know their stuff...how ta bring em down easy. They went above and beyond in many ways as well. In my 65 years of hiring services for things I couldn't do myself, this is the only time I've been 100% satisfied. Although I peeked out and watched at times, I still don't know how they got that behemoth elm out of the back yard."

"This guy was great. I had several trees about 40 or 50 feet tall that fell across the back of our house smashing our deck. He removed all the trees and the vines entangled with them at a very reasonable price and pretty much by himself. He really got the trees cut up and hauled away in a timely manner. I was concerned about possibly being too big a project for one person but he did a great job. I was thoroughly impressed with the job he did. I would recommend him for any tree project you might have. Here’s a before picture all of this is gone."

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

Unless it’s dead or dangerous, think twice about cutting down a tree in your yard. They’re good for health, well-being, wildlife, and the environment. Plus, local authorities often have regulations prohibiting the removal of trees, especially protected species or individual trees with historical value.

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.

Not every arborist climbs trees, but most will do so if that’s the best method for assessing or treating a tree. Arborists have a variety of tree climbing gear and safety equipment to choose from when climbing trees. Consult your local arborist about their tree-climbing plan if your service requires that type of task.

In general, trees should be planted no closer than 15 to 20 feet from your foundation. For larger trees with far-reaching roots like maples, oaks, or poplars, a good guide is to plant as many feet from your home as the tree’s height is expected to reach at maturity. Some trees, like elms and willows, should only be planted far from where their roots may encounter sewer or water lines.

There are many signs that a tree is diseased or dying, and if you suspect that’s the case, you should call an arborist immediately. You might notice rot or fungus on the trunk or that the tree is beginning to lean to one side. Brittle branches or signs of root damage are other indicators that a tree is in trouble. If the tree is dying, it might be time to cut the tree down so it doesn’t fall.
