"Onyx Tree Service!!! Where to even start?? If I could give 100 stars I would. Austin and his crew were very professional and personable. Jessica was very responsive in keeping me posted on the schedule and just a pleasure to work with. Austin and crew did a fantastic job cleaning up my huge sycamore and removing a few arborvitaes and a crazy overgrown "thing" in my backyard. The cleanup was great.... yard looked better than it did before they showed up. What a great group of people to work with. HIGHLY recommend!!"

Was a slight delay because of bad weather but very prompt as soon as the weather permitted. I felt it was a little pricey but they

did quality work for their money. Owners and workers were professional and courteous. Would use them again if needed.

"Could not have gone better, from the time of getting the bid through tree removal and clean up. The price to do the work was fair and reasonable. When I asked for proof of insurance it was provided to me right away which made me feel very confident in dealing with Earley and Son's Tree Service. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing a tree removed or trimmed. Bottom line GREAT COMPANY"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

It's easy to misidentify trees that appear to be maple trees due to similarities in leaf shapes. Sweetgum, sycamore, and yellow poplar all have leaf shapes and appearances similar to maples. The fact that around a dozen maple tree varieties exist, only about half of which are considered common, makes misidentification an often typical occurrence.  

Generally, no, tree topping isn’t a good technique, and you should avoid using it in most cases. Tree topping may be the only good option to save a tree following severe damage after a storm, but in most other cases, it’s not the right choice. Tree topping can leave trees vulnerable to disease and further damage, and most pros will suggest against it.

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.

Cutting down a tree next to power lines is never a DIY job, and it’s a good idea to contact your utility company first. In most cases, the utility company will need to take care of any tree problems within 10 to 15 feet of power lines. If you want to remove the tree for aesthetic reasons, hire a pro to do the job. Trying to cut trees near power lines yourself can create many safety hazards, and you could be liable if you inadvertently cause damage to electrical equipment.
