"We too had an excellent experience with Triad. These guys really are the best. Professional, punctual, courteous and extremely skilled. I contacted them Thursday morning, had an estimate from them that afternoon, and they had a full crew out here hard at work the next day. Performed difficult tree removal in a very tight spot. They're exactly what you want in a tree service."

"I hired Richard to remove a pear tree from my yard. He and his crew arrived at the time promised. They did a great job cutting the tree down, removing the cuttings, cleaning the yard. and removing the stump. His team was hard working, professional and very courteous. The price for job was very reasonable and I will use him in the future for all my tree work. Pete H Lexington"

"We had a rotted tree fall and damage the neighbors fence months ago. Browns Stump Removal came out days afterwards and provided a quote for repairs; even with the downed tree still in the way. It took a few months to get the area cleared so work could be done, and they not only were able to get out within a few weeks of re-contacting them, they also stood by their initial quoted rate. The job was done quickly and very well; and you can only tell there was any damage due to the brand-new wood. Would certainly hire again in the future."

"Wonderful!! They contacted me the same day I posted on Angi and took down the trees a few days later. They came back within a week to trim a couple bushes and lay all of the mulch! We also hired them to cut our grass for the season. They were prompt, reasonably priced, friendly and did a great job! I would definitely recommend them!"

"Josh cut a HUGE oak, an old maple, and trimmed limbs off an even larger poplar tree for us. First he came and gave us a free estimate and an approximate date. When he arrived, he did a great job! He was true to his estimate, and even came back to cut some of the larger pieces of trunk for us to make it more manageable. We wholeheartedly recommend Phipps Tree Service and will definitely use them again the next time!"

Tree Service 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.

The costs vary from $250 to $5,000 per tree, depending on the size, complexity of the trimming, and labor.

Generally, avoid trimming trees in the summer (with the exception of pruning fruit trees as needed). Trees use a lot of energy in the summer, most of which is relegated to new growth. If you chop it too early, you could stunt the next season's growth. Again, when in doubt, do some research based on the specific tree type.

For Bradford pears, damage from storms is common, and if the trunk splits, it can pose a danger to people and surrounding structures. The best thing to do in that instance is to have the tree removed. If there’s only minor damage to the branches, pruning away the damaged parts is the first order of business. You may also want to consult a professional arborist to make sure the tree is healthy.

If the roots are still alive, the dead tree will usually try to put out new shoots. That doesn’t mean the tree will survive or that the dead parts of a tree will come back to life. If parts of the tree have died and turned gray or rotten, nothing will bring them back to life and they need to be safely removed.
