"Mr. Rantz is a friendly, down-to-earth guy who definitely knows how to get rid of a tree stump. Severe storms rolled through NW Springfield in late April 2025. Unfortunately, we had to have a maple tree cut down. The tree company’s guy wanted $1150 to grind the stump and haul the sawdust. Mr. Rantz did it for $600 and did as thorough a job as I could’ve asked for. Five out of five stars. If you need to get rid of a stump on your property, hire Sam Rantz’s Stump Grinding - you’ll be glad you did."

"We were very pleased with the work done by the Villines tree service. Clint is very kind and professional. They really cleaned up after the trees were removed. The two men worked well together and completed the job quickly. We will definitely call on them again if needed. Oh and they were careful not to harm the young trees that were nearby the pine trees that were being removed."

"AAA was able to quickly handle an emergency situation with a large tree in my front yard. They arrived within minutes of being contacted and resolved the issue. Then they returned a few days later to complete the work that wasn't as urgent. They left my yard in great shape and picked up all of the chips, branches and twigs. Recommend."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

You should not trim an oak tree in the summer. Oak trees are especially susceptible to disease, and open tree wounds are an invitation for beetles that carry tree-killing fungus. If there’s no risk that the oak tree will do damage to your property or hurt someone, it’s best to save the trimming for fall or winter. If you can, seal the wound with latex to prevent fungus from getting inside.

Completely topping a plum tree is a risky business. Cut too much, and you’ll kill your tree. That said, you do need to trim the top of your tree to encourage bushy growth, maintain your tree’s vase shape, and limit size. 

A plum tree's central leader (or trunk) should never extend more than 3 feet above the highest branch. When you first plant your tree, cut the central leader so it’s 2 to 3 feet tall. As it grows, cut it back 12 to 20 inches until it reaches its desired height. Never prune more than one-third of the new growth.

Maple trees start the growing season by developing small groups of red flowers where the tree's fruit, the samaras, will appear in the coming weeks. Later in spring, the samaras, which many call whirlybirds or similar names, develop into single-winged seed carriers that spin when falling or drifting in the wind. 

While the trees in your backyard are good for the environment and look beautiful, they could present a danger to your home under the wrong circumstances. This task is typically beyond the capabilities of the average homeowner due to its dangerous nature, so it’s best to leave this task to a professional. In some cities, it’s even illegal to remove a tree yourself.

Although the terms tree trimming and tree pruning are used interchangeably, they are very different types of tree maintenance. Tree trimming involves enhancing the appearance of your tree by removing unruly branches, providing your tree with ample sunlight and nutrients and prevents unsightly overgrowth. 

Tree pruning helps keep your trees disease-free. This process removes unhealthy growths, dead branches, and other unhealthy parts of the tree. It’s more common for deciduous and ornamental trees but not so common for evergreen trees. To determine which method you need, discuss it with a tree trimming specialist.
