"We hired Christian to remove tree stumps on our property. He gave us a price the next day and started work within a week. His work ethic is incredible—he left the site spotless and communicated clearly every step of the way. Since then, he’s regraded our driveway, removed an old chicken coop, and cleared brush. It’s safe to say Christian is our go-to contractor now."

"We had 5 trees plus small ones taken down . One by my road and brush also, two giant Oaks out back of my house plus a couple of others that were dead. Seamus was great to work with and his tree cutter Cooper was great at landing the trees not to hit anything near house or road. He did reschedule because of equipment to be repaired but, he did show up on the next scheduled work day. At this time of my work he worked alone after trees were cut, but was VERY efficient and cleaned up when complete. I used his guy for removing stumps out by the road very good and friendly."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Burning a tree stump can be effective, but it comes with safety considerations and isn’t always best for every situation. It's essential to check local regulations and assess the safety risks involved. Stumps that are near wooden structures or other non-moveable flammable objects aren’t good candidates for burning due to the risk of the fire spreading. Alternatives like grinding or a DIY stump rotting project might be safer and quicker for getting the job done.

It is possible to burn out a tree stump if it is dried out and in an area of your property with a large buffer. Drill holes in the stump and dig around the base so it burns more easily. Then, build a small campfire on top using kindling and firewood. You’ll need enough to keep the fire going for many hours to completely burn out the stump, especially if it’s large. 

Monitor the fire closely to ensure it doesn’t spread, and have a hose on hand if it starts to get out of control. When the fire is out, break apart the burned stump and dig out what’s left of it.  

If this sounds like a good option, learn more about how to burn a tree stump before attempting it, as it does come with risks.

Though summer is not ideal, you can do some light pruning during this time of year. Just make sure it’s not excessive. Vigorous pruning will stress the tree and impact next year’s growth. Generally, August to September are the best summer-pruning months, particularly for fruit trees.

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.

If a tree stump is removed properly, the chances of a tree growing back are low. However, if a tree has a robust root system, roots can sometimes sprout and someday grow into a tree. The chance of regrowth will depend on several factors such as the type of tree, soil quality, and strength of the root system. In general, it is not recommended to plant a tree where a stump was removed.
