My name is Zac Prickett owner and founder of Hybrid Squatch. I created this Bussines after hurricane Helene, with intentions to provide affordable rope access tree removal for people devastated by the hurricane, living in hazardous situations. I have been climbing and removing trees for 6 years prior in addition to building homes and installing septic systems with my father. Hurricane Helene hit and I started receiving phone calls of some very dangerous situations involving widow makers and some entangled trees causing very hazardous scenarios for home owners in hard to reach places. I purchased insurance and am fully insured due to the complexities and dangers involved. My intentions are to handle EVERY job in a professional manner and provide safety when considering overhead dangers, providing proper technique, equipment, and game plan to carry out any tree takedown.

We at H & H Tree Service LLC, strive to maintain our reputation as a high quality, very service oriented company, with our main focus being customer satisfaction.There is a limit of $1800 per day to higher the crew.

"I hired Hugh to prepare our building site and he left me with all kinds of problems. He did not clear the site for the house where we wanted it, did not hire an engineer for plans to build the retaining wall and has left us with so many problems. The retaining wall did not pass inspection. I had to hire an Engineer to draw plans up and it has cost me so far 36k to take his wall apart and put it back so I could back out of my driveway without falling down a 10 foot embankment. I took him off the job and he went to MCNeelys and told them I approved for him to take 4 loads of rock which I did not and I don't know where he brought the material but it was not on my site. I paid for all the material for his work he had done, and 36K for just labor and he has now put a lein on my property. The person he hired to do the work quit becasue he was cutting so many corners. I would never reccomend him for site work. "

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

A tree can grow back from its stump, but full regrowth is unlikely (especially for more stubborn conifer trees). Instead, trees are more likely to send up a number of shoots from the dead stump, which will try to develop into primary stems over time. In other words, it will start to look increasingly bushy. The goal of killing and drying out a tree stump is to prevent that from happening, as well as make the stump easier to completely remove.

It’s not always easy to tell when a tree is dying, although signs like dropping branches and brittle bark can sometimes offer clues. It can also be difficult to know whether a tree is dead or dormant, especially if it’s a deciduous tree. You’ll want to wait until a growth season to get a good idea of a tree’s health. When in doubt, contact an arborist for a consultation.

You don’t always need a permit to grind a stump, but you might need one depending on your location and the stump’s surroundings. Permits are often needed if the stump is part of a protected tree species, near public areas or utility lines, or close to environmentally sensitive zones like wetlands. Some cities also regulate noise and work hours. Always check local rules before grinding, and contact your city or county office if you're unsure.

The fastest way to remove a tree stump is to use a stump grinder. You can hire a professional stump removal service or rent the machine. If you choose to grind the stump out yourself, keep in mind these machines are large and can be difficult to transport and operate. A more affordable way to remove a tree stump is to use potassium nitrate pellets to accelerate decomposition, which can take four to six months.

Your local government is usually in charge of pruning trees on public property, and the power company is responsible for trees near power lines (even if they’re on your property). Whether or not they top these trees depends on their approach to pruning. You won’t be able to do much to control this, but you can contact them to find out more about their pruning process.
