"I had a great experience with Maine Roots Stump Grinding. Lucas took care of two stumps for me and did an amazing job! Communication was excellent from start to finish. Lucas was friendly, prompt, and easy to work with. Both stump sites look great. What a difference it makes in how my yard looks to have the stumps taken out. I really appreciate the quality of the job and would definitely recommend this service to anyone needing stump grinding."

"I called Travis in early July to come and estimate the cost to remove a 36 year-old 60-70' tall Catalpa tree ( the one that has orchid-like flowers and then grows long green beans). He came over that same day to look things over and gave us a very fair estimate. We decided then and there to sign on to have it scheduled for sometime this summer or early fall. He expected it would be mid to late August, which was perfect for us. He called us around noon on Monday August 24, asking if he could come over and drop that tree in a half-hour or so. We said yes and he was there in 20 minutes with a bucket truck, a dump truck, and a big chipper. They got set up in a heartbeat and within 1 hour the tree was limbed, taken down in sections except for an 8' section of the trunk, and all of it chipped and in the truck, thanks to Travis and Butch. Next they felled the trunk and used the boom to load the trunk pieces into the dump truck with the chips. A few minutes work with rakes cleaned up all the small debris and the job was done. The skill and proficiency they showed was amazing to watch. Every move each man made was perfectly synced to the other man's actions. Real teamwork at its best! We are so impressed by TLC Tree in every aspect and would highly recommend them to anyone in need of their services. They are the BEST, hands down, no doubt, amen.Thanks, Travis and Butch!!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

A few signs a tree may be dead is if the leaves are dead and there are no signs of new blooms. You can also perform a scratch test on some of the branches to check the condition of the cambium layer beneath the bark.

If it is green, it is still alive, but if several are dry, brittle, and brown, the tree may be dying or dead. Always consult an arborist before assuming your tree is dead because you may be able to save it.

Pruning trees is important for several reasons. It improves tree health and strength by removing dead, diseased, or unwanted branches, which in turn encourages new growth and can help treat disease. For fruit trees, proper pruning can lead to a larger and better-quality harvest. Pruning also enhances safety by removing weak limbs that could break and fall, potentially causing injury or property damage, especially during storms. Beyond these functional benefits, pruning can also improve a tree's appearance. To ensure pruning is done correctly for the tree's long-term health, consider hiring a professional.

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.

A grafted tree is a tree grown by combining two trees. It takes expertise. Branches from grafted trees don’t grow strong roots. Save yourself the time and frustration by having an arborist help you with this advanced project.  

You can often tell if a tree is grafted because it will have a noticeable line. Above the line, the bark will look different than it does below the line. It’s most common with fruit trees.

You don’t always need a permit to grind a stump, but you might need one depending on your location and the stump’s surroundings. Permits are often needed if the stump is part of a protected tree species, near public areas or utility lines, or close to environmentally sensitive zones like wetlands. Some cities also regulate noise and work hours. Always check local rules before grinding, and contact your city or county office if you're unsure.
