"Mr. Brown came out and looked at the job. He gave a fair quote and was available to do the job when I wanted it done. He arrived promptly. Did a great job grinding out the tree and did not leave a mess behind. I would recommend the company to others."

""I highly recommend Bobby from 'Stump Guys' for any outdoor project. From the very start, his pricing was completely fair and transparent with no hidden surprises. He showed up exactly when he said he would, which is hard to find these days.Bobby went above and beyond the basic job requirements. He was incredibly conscientious about my property, taking extra care not to leave a mess and ensuring everything looked spotless before he left. His professionalism, communication, and work ethic are top-notch. I will absolutely use his services again!""

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Not all leaning trees are dangerous, but they can be a hazard as gravity may eventually cause them to fall. A key factor is whether the lean is new or has been present for a long time. Trees that have grown with a lean for years are not typically an immediate danger, but a sudden lean is a cause for concern as it often indicates weakening roots. If a tree is leaning more than 15% from vertical, you should consider having it straightened or transplanted. To be safe, it's always best to hire a professional arborist to inspect any leaning tree to assess the risk and avoid potential accidents.

Only trim palm trees as needed, which is usually about once per year. However, don't stick to that schedule if the palm tree doesn't need it. Avoid trimming palm trees when possible. It’s best to trim palm trees only when you notice a buildup of dead fronds. That said, leave the brown fronds during the dormant season because this organic matter helps protect the tree from the cooler weather.

Costs depend on tree height, trunk diameter, removal complexity, and required equipment.

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.

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.
