I'm Dave Berry — I've spent 20+ years in the trades and run a crew of four, so we handle everything from a single afternoon's work to a full-scale build.\nBig job or small, we do it: junk removal and hauling, landscaping and yard cleanup, brush clearing, kitchen and bath remodels, basement finishing, decks, siding, roofing, concrete, painting, and general handyman work. We also specialize in custom fine finish carpentry, log construction, and standing seam metal roofing — the kind of work most crews around here won't take on.\nI'm a licensed Minnesota Residential Building Contractor (BC809295) and fully insured.

"Absolutely fantastic. A few of the workers had some idle time while waiting for their truck to return so they trimmed all the dead branches on all the other trees in my large country acreage. Plus removed some bushes that I wanted gone but were not included in my bill. Even ground out the roots on those bushes. All at no extra cost! Clean up was complete. Fast , very friendly even with both dogs, sawed all the trees into fireplace size logs and neatly piled them . So above and beyond what anyone would have expected"

"We had a big oak tree that was right over our home removed. It was doing a number on our shingles. The two men who removed the tree were very professional. They always cleaned up after themselves. It was amazing to see. I’m trying to add pictures but it won’t let me. Bottom line we were extremely pleased with what they accomplished. Plus they were very respectful."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

While trees can grow in the curb strip between the sidewalk and the street, this placement often poses the problem of interfering with overhead power lines. It’s best to consult your local utility provider and tree planting service before transplanting a tree that might grow into power lines. Also, you should never work within 20 feet of a live power line to avoid the risk of electric shock. Tree branches should never touch nearby power lines, so it’s essential to ensure your tree isn’t in danger of growing too close to them.

You can remove a small tree from your yard if there’s space for the tree to fall, you have the right tools and safety equipment, and you follow a clear plan of action. You’ll just want to follow the steps above carefully, and ideally, you will have experience doing similar tasks. If you have any doubts that you can do this project safely, though, you should hire a pro.

Yes, carefully prune back dead branches—don’t wait for pruning season. This helps keep your maple tree healthy and also helps prevent large branches from falling unexpectedly. Don’t seal the cut branch—trees can naturally take care of these wounds—but be sure to remove any source of fungus or pest infestation to help save the tree.

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.

There are several methods to hollow out a tree stump, and the best one depends on your tools, experience, and priorities. Common methods include using a chisel and hammer, a chainsaw, or burning.

  • Chisel and Hammer: This is often considered the easiest approach for those with limited tools or experience, though it is the most time-consuming.

  • Chainsaw: Using a chainsaw is the fastest method, but it comes with significant safety risks, especially for inexperienced users.

  • Burning: This can be an effective method, but it is not recommended unless you can first drill holes into the stump. Without holes, the stump will be difficult to light and may not burn completely through.

A power drill with at least a ⅜-inch diameter bit can make the job quicker and easier, regardless of the primary method. While you can use a chisel or chainsaw without a drill, it will require more time and effort. Always wear protective goggles and thick gloves, as splinters are an inevitable risk.
