"Extremely professional crew. I had a yard full of over grown trees and stumps. Lawn-n-order took care of me and got my yard back to where it should be. The guys work very fast, only took them 3 days when I figured it would take a week at least. The price was also very reasonable, especially for the amount of work I had them do. If you need a well rounded, professional, and fast acting tree company give these guys a call! I promise you wonâ t be disappointed!"

"I could have not been more pleased with Mr Maurer. In grinding the stump a possible serious problem arose. He searched until the problem was solved. His work was exemplary. The area looked a lot better when he was through. I would highly recommend Mr Maurer based on my experience."

"Five star all the way. When I put my job on Angi Justin called immediately even though it was 7:30pm on a Monday. Johnny came out the next day and gave us a quote. We removed a huge 100+ foot gum tree, 13 cypress trees, and trimmed the maple in our front yard. The two others that Angi gave us, one didn't want the work and priced it as such and the other never replied. Another a local used quoted four times Justins price. The crew were mostly non-english speaking and had a person with them in training that was their translator. Speaking fluent Spanish I had no problems getting exactly what I wanted plus a little extra trimming. The crew were fantastic. Took two full days to do the work and they had some trouble with one of their machines to remove the huge tree stump pieces. We expected a bit of damage to flower beds around the trees and truck tire marks in the yard and they did do everything possible to keep it to a minimum. I would recommend them to anyone."

"Stump Pros gave me my backyard back. It took me a year and a half to work up the courage to call anyone, but Paul and I shook hands on a great price 45 minutes after I picked up the phone to call him. He and the crew came back a couple days later and did a spectacular job. These guys are hard working, respectful and get the job done right - for an honest price."

"They did a great job! My roof looks great! Reliable and kept me well informed about everything. They kept cost in mind and cleaned up nicely after themselves. Serge even came out late to tarp the roof until it could get repaired so that I didnâ t have any further damage to the house waiting for the roof. They were very nice to work with. Great people. I canâ t say enough good things about them!"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

You can hire a professional arborist or tree removal service to cut down a tree to ensure safety, prevent property damage, and comply with all the local regulations. It’s highly advisable to always hire a professional, as tree removal can be extremely dangerous, especially for large or damaged trees. Certified arborists or tree removal experts have the proper equipment, training, and insurance to do the job safely and efficiently. They can also handle cleanup, stump removal, and obtaining the necessary permits.

Early signs that a tree is struggling include premature leaf shedding and lesions or other strange markings. Peeling bark, dead or rotten branches on the ground, and a conspicuous lack of leaves can all be signs that a tree has started to die. By the time a tree starts leaning, it’s usually too far gone to save.

Yes, it is essential to confirm that any tree service company you hire is properly insured before they begin work. Tree removal, trimming, and pruning are dangerous jobs, and proper insurance protects you, your home, and the company from liability in case of accidents or damage. Look for a company that carries both general liability and workers’ compensation insurance, and do not hire one that cannot provide proof of coverage. When browsing for professionals, you can look for indicators like an “Angi Approved” badge, which signifies that the business meets standards like holding applicable licenses and passing a background check. Keep in mind that a license is a legal requirement to operate, while certifications are typically voluntary.

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

Palm tree stumps can take as long as seven to ten years to rot naturally. Whereas some tree stumps rot within a year, palm trees tend to last longer due to their deep root networks. Chemical rotting (described above) can help speed the process up so your palm tree stumps rot in under two months.
