"Jay Cotton and crew did an awesome job. They cut, removed and cleaned up debris from a hickory tree that was too close to my daughters house. While there they removed the trunk and roots from a fallen tree caused by a storm. At my house removed 4 huge limbs from my 50 yr old oak tree that were hanging over my house as well as neat clean up. Price for these 2 jobs was very reasonable!"

"Excellent service. They responded quickly with a very reasonable price following an on-site observation. They showed up with a well coordinated team, trimmed back a large tree, removed all of the debris and left the area better than they found it. The access was very difficult, and they were able to get to the project with a well coordinated ease. Very personable and asked about certain aspects of the job as they did it. I highly recommend them."

"I am so impressed with these guys! They came out on a Friday to give me a quote and by Saturday I had five trees, threes shrubs removed, new sod laid down and a brand new garden bed. They are also sending someone out to clean the leaves and gutters tomorrow. AND they pointed out some serious issues with my roof that I had not noticed before. Worth every penny!"

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 could be anywhere from weeks to years for a dead tree to fall. A dead tree falls based on its weight, how it leans, the state of its roots, the state of decay, and what local windstorms are like, among other factors. Since it’s hard to predict the fall’s timing, it’s important to cut down a dead tree quickly and avoid any unpleasant surprises.

It enhances property aesthetics, improves tree health, and prevents safety hazards.

Permits are often required for large tree removals, especially in urban areas or for protected species, ensuring regulation compliance and neighbor safety.

You may be looking to identify maple trees to use for home improvement projects. In that case, you can tell hard maples by looking at their leaves. Leaves will have a U-shaped dip, or sinus, between the points, or lobes, of the leaves. Leaves of soft maples tend to have V-shaped sinuses.

If you already have the cut wood in front of you, look for a light, uniform color to identify hard maple wood and check for variations of red, gray, or brown streaks and an overall darker color in soft maple wood.
