"Chris was great to work with! He came out Friday evening after work to look at our tree and was back by Tuesday morning to cut it down. He was professional, thorough and not overpriced! 10/10 would hire him again!"

"I haven't had any work done yet. But... after 3 years and multiple calls to the most well know tree services in the area, Betchels was the fist to call back. I made an inquiry on Sunday (fathers day) Ryon called back Monday AM and spent 2 hours on the property on Tuesday, after business hours and at my convenience. He looked at every tree and made recommendations for what I could do myself vs the professional jobs. I was left with a written quote more reasonable than any of the nightmare stories I'd heard from friends and neighbors. We have a large property with multiple trees that have been neglected for years. I was dreading a professional assessment/quote but walked away feeling encouraged and looking forward to future progress. I wouldn't normally write a review on work that hasn't been done but I was so impressed with the service, quoted price and his willingness to accommodate that I felt like I could review the experience so far. I'll write more when the work is completed but I'm confident it will exceed my expectations! Thank you Ryon for taking the time to make an overwhelming situation feel manageable. I look forward to working with you."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

If you’re looking to rot a tree stump fast, potassium nitrate will work far quicker than copper nails. First, drill several holes into the stump using a power drill, then pour potassium nitrate pellets into the holes. Next, add water to help the chemical absorb into the wood, thoroughly soaking the stump to ensure the pellets dissolve and spread evenly. Afterward, cover the stump with a tarp to retain moisture and block sunlight, then place mulch on top to secure it in place.

Carefully pruning small roots no thicker than three inches in diameter won’t harm the tree. However, cutting larger roots may impact the tree's stability and nutrient absorption. It's advisable to consult an arborist or tree care professional to evaluate the root's size, the tree's health, and the potential impact of cutting. Proper tree pruning techniques and timing can minimize damage, but larger root removal may necessitate expert guidance to avoid compromising the tree's overall health and stability.

You may need permission to take a tree down. Check with your local ordinances about rules regarding tree removal and to gain any necessary permits. Check with your local ordinances or the fire department if you plan to burn the stump. Make sure you have all the steps in place before removing the tree, or contact a local tree removal service.

The best tools for tree removal include a chainsaw for large trees, an ax for notching and cutting down small trees, and a wedge to help control the direction a tree falls in. A hatchet can be useful for very small trees, but won’t be effective for medium to large trees. 

The cost of professional tree service, such as trimming, is $460 on average, but the price can range from $75 to $1,800. A more typical range is between $200 and $760. The final price depends on several factors, including the size and type of the tree. For example, trimming Crepe Myrtle trees costs an average of $80 to $400, while giant pine trees can range from $200 to $1,800. Other factors that influence the cost include the time of year, as services are often more expensive in the spring. Your location can also play a role; costs may be higher if you live in a remote area or if the tree is difficult to access. However, some professionals may offer a discount if you have multiple trees that need service.
