"I had Travis grind stumps for me and loam and reseed the area afterward. He was very accommodating, punctual, and polite. He did wonderful work, even spreading the wood chips, creating a lovely path in the woods. I would highly recommend their services!"

"I contacted KB Tree Services because we had a very large tree leaning over our home and I was concerned it might fall if there was a severe storm this winter. I was impressed, not only by how quickly they came out to look at the job but also by how fast they got me a quote and completed all the work. Their team was friendly and left the area completely clean afterward. My husband and I were very happy with the whole experience. Thank you!"

"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."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

We don’t recommend DIY tree trimming for a few different reasons. First, the tools required to trim a tree can be costly, up to $1,100 or more, for the ladders and specialized saws needed. 

Safety is another concern, especially when working with more mature trees. As a guideline, you should only DIY tree trimming when branches are less than two inches in diameter. Any more, and the safety risk becomes too high, which could lead to catastrophe. For this job, it’s safest to let a tree-trimming professional assess the work needed.

Since each tree is different, it’s impossible to say how long a dead tree can remain on your property. While it could be days, months, or even years, it’s highly likely that, at some point, the tree will fall. In the meantime, dying or dead trees can become a haven for pests, so it’s best to have them removed sooner rather than later.

Many species, especially when well-established, are not fans of transplantation. You’ll need to decide if you want to risk splashing the cash, understanding that transplantation isn’t always successful. Again, this is where hiring a pro is helpful, as they can give you all the essential info you need to ensure your tree stands a fighting chance.

The cost of professional tree trimming averages $460, with a typical range between $200 and $760. However, prices can be as low as $75 or as high as $1,800 depending on several factors. The size and type of the tree are major cost drivers; for example, trimming Crepe Myrtle trees costs an average of $80 to $400, while trimming giant pine trees can range from $200 to $1,800. Other factors that influence the price include the time of year, as services are often more costly in the spring. The tree's accessibility and your location also play a role, as a remote or hard-to-reach tree may increase the cost. Some professionals may offer a discount if you have multiple trees to trim.

Large, established tree branches won’t grow roots, but if you find a young tree branch that’s less than about a year old, you’ve got a shot. Put it in water or soil as soon as possible for best results. You’ll know the branch is viable if it’s about the thickness of a pencil and has some leaves or needles.
