"C&C tree service did an awesome job trimming and removing trees that were in danger of hitting my house in the power lines. They were very professional had all the needed equipment and know how to get the job done. I have used other tree service in the past and can honestly say C&C tree service is far better. I would highly recommend them for anybody needing tree work done. Craig and his team went above and beyond to get the job done. They also did a great job of cleaning up the job site. When I need tree work in the future they will be my number 1 choice."

"Ben Krause and his team are excellent, and I HIGHLY recommend them! Not only did they quote a fair price and do a great job- but they also left the area immaculate. I could not see any tree debris anywhere. Ben takes a lot of pride in his work, and it shows. If you need tree work done, contact Ben at Krause Family Arborist."

"I highly recommend Sam for any stump removal needs! He did an excellent job from start to finish. San was professional, dependable, hardworking, and made sure the job was done right. He removed the stump efficiently and left the area looking clean and neat when he finished. It was nice working with someone who takes pride in their work and truly cares about customer satisfaction. Sam was friendly, easy to work with, and the entire experience was smooth and stress free. If you need stump removal done, don't hesitate to call Sam. You will not be disappointed!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

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.

Although it’s possible, heavy machinery like a crane is necessary for removing an entire tree stump and all. This procedure is extremely costly, time-consuming, and usually unnecessary, as there are plenty of convenient and affordable stump removal options. 

Your best bet, if you want to be sure to remove a tree and its stump efficiently, is to speak with a professional. They’ll be able to walk you through the entire process.

While the fastest way to kill a tree is to simply cut it down, there are several other methods to choose from. You should hire a professional tree removal service to cut down a tree to ensure your personal and property safety. Some slower but effective options include treating or grinding the tree stump or using a basal bark treatment. 

The best way is to start controlling tree height long before it grows too large, via careful pruning through the years. But that’s not always possible. If a tree has become too high or too large, use selective pruning to remove the most troublesome branches, one by one, without topping the tree. Gently shaping a tree like this can, over time, correct problems. You can also find growth inhibitors to spray on a tree to stop it from growing too rapidly, but use these sparingly if at all.

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.
