"Hunter and his crew were great! They took out about eight big trees in one day? Size them all up and hauled them all off too! Showed up when he said he was going to show up. The kid?s got a big heart and a strong back. I would certainly have them do more work for me."

"This Tree Service Company was excellent to deal with from the very start. Tyler contacted us and was very friendly and professional. We had a tree that had a big limb blow down during the recent storm. They were very careful to not damage a wooden fence and also were very careful about saving a flower garden surrounding the tree. They were very careful in bringing there equipment and did not damage our yard. While here they also trimmed another tree for a reasonable charge. They were very carefully in taking down branches close to our roof. the entire staff was friendly and thoughtful in how they did their work. They cleaned up the area thoroughly. I have already recommended B&B Tree Service to some of my friends. Great company who did an excellent job for us. Sincerely Chuck & Cheryl Johnson"

"My tree was trimmed off the roof of my house the way I wanted , I had an added request of trimming limbs off my fence on the same tree and he took care of those while he was there as well. The brush and leaves were cleaned and raked, my yard looked the way it did before he got there. I would definitely use this tree service again and recommend to all friends."

"Crew was very professional, friendly and polite. Topped a huge silver maple (around 60 to 70 ft tall), with my garage and fence on one side and the neighbors shed and electrical lines on the other side. Removed a tree in front and ground stump and trimmed 2 other trees. Very fast and efficient. Clean up they did a great job. We would highly recommend them and will use again if need arises."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The safest way to cut down a tree is to make sure you’re completely prepared and have done all the necessary safety checks, including double-checking your equipment is in good working order, you have plenty of clearance to fell the tree, you’re wearing all the safety gear, and you have a partner to help you (who should also be wearing safety gear). 

Tree removal can be quite expensive, especially for larger projects, but you can use the following tips to help keep costs down:

  • Do the yard cleanup afterward yourself

  • Choose to leave the logs on your property and split them yourself

  • Opt to leave the stump in the ground and tackle stump grinding yourself

  • Pull permits for tree removal, if necessary, to avoid fines

  • Pay to have multiple trees removed at once

  • Remove tree in the late winter or early spring during off-season

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.

For Bradford pears, damage from storms is common, and if the trunk splits, it can pose a danger to people and surrounding structures. The best thing to do in that instance is to have the tree removed. If there’s only minor damage to the branches, pruning away the damaged parts is the first order of business. You may also want to consult a professional arborist to make sure the tree is healthy.

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.
