"Ruben's Tree Services did an incredible job. We hired them to cut down our tree and grind the stump. They were outstanding proffesionals who did a fantastic job. The tree was in my backyard and hung over the house and shed so it was a difficult job and they made it look easy. They did a great job cleaning up as well. If you need work done at a reasonable price, I would highly recommend them."

"We needed trimming of a honey locust and a magnolia. Both trees are very important to the aesthetic of our property. Moe came out to the property to look at trees and was very attentive as we discussed what we wanted and didnâ t want. He gave us his thoughts on what would be best for the tress both now and down the road. The conversation with Moe was much more thorough and detailed than with any other companies and I appreciated that. His knowledge and confidence in his planned approach was apparent. The process of receiving and accepting the quote was quick and seamless. Moe kept in touch while we waited for availability which was less than two weeks. On the day of the work, Moe showed up on time with this assistant for the day and go to work. Even though he had a good idea of what we wanted, he checked on throughout the day. He was very conscientious to not trim more than we wanted or to not trim an amount that would be detrimental to the trees. I am pretty sure that I didnâ t hear a chainsaw all day. Everything was done by hand. Moe finished on time and the trees look great. Exactly what we wanted. I highly recommend Moe if you want a high level of care taken with your tree trimming job"

Customers say: Quick response

"Before Stump Brothers, I had SO much trouble trying to get anyone to even consider my apple tree removal. Josh reached out with a quote within the first 10 minutes it was requested and was able to get me on the schedule within the week! He gave a variety of convenient payment options and he was reliably communicative. Randall came out to do the project, and my goodness, the man is both a beast with a chain saw and a delicate ballerina. Those tree limbs were floating to the ground; this man is an artist. He had the whole thing done and cleaned up faster than my comforter could finish it’s wash cycle. I 100% recommend"

"This was a great experience. It’s so nice to deal with a real pro. Tim knows trees. He arrived right on time. The trees look beautiful, and everything was cleaned up. They also didn’t step on any of my plants. In addition, his quote was below the other company we considered. Worth every dollar!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Unless there’s some sort of rule in your community’s homeowners’ association that requires you to remove a stump, there’s no law that says you have to take it out. If you’re not wedded to the idea of removing it, there are plenty of ways to get creative with this tree remnant. Using the stump as the medium for a wood carving or turning it into a planter are just two examples of ways to repurpose a tree stump.

Late winter is ideal, but if you’re pruning apple trees in the spring, prune them as early as possible in the season. You want to ensure your tree is just creeping out of dormancy and hasn’t started pushing out new growth. If you prune your tree too late into spring, you generally won’t see results until the following year.

That said, there’s no pruning season for unhealthy growth. Remove dead, dying, or diseased branches as soon as you notice them, regardless of the time of year.

You may wonder whether tree removal is tax deductible: Tree removal is not tax-deductible for homeowners unless it's related to a federally declared disaster. In that case, the cost may qualify as a casualty loss. However, if you own a commercial property, like a rental home, tree removal could be deductible if it's necessary for safety, maintenance, or part of a larger capital improvement project, and you must hire a professional tree removal service and keep documentation. Always consult a tax professional beforehand to see if you qualify.

There are a few differences between tree guying and tree staking. Tree guying requires anchor stakes that are shorter and stronger than regular stakes and are driven deeper into the ground at an angle away from the tree. Tree staking uses longer stakes that are set parallel to the tree and are used for smaller trees. Consult a local tree professional to determine which method is best for your tree.

Trees aren't big fans of moving, and they do go into shock during a transplant. Although most carefully thought-out tree transplants see the tree recover from the shock just fine, there is always a risk of having an unsuccessful move. Proper preparation, timing, and diligent aftercare are crucial to minimize the risks when transplanting a tree.
