"I highly recommend Hyler Tree Service. Greg and his team showed up on time and did a great job. They cut down and removed 3 trees behind my home and also removed a tree that fell onto my neighbors yard. He worked to do minimal damage to my yard, and his teams clean-up was very good. His charge to do all the work was honest and reasonable. His wife Mindy called quickly to set up an appointment for the quote and also returned my call quickly when I left a message. If I ever need tree service again, I will call Hyler Tree Service."

"I have used this company on 3 different occasions so obviously they do great work. Jerman has always provided excellent customer service and goes above and beyond to make sure I am happy with the job. Jerman and his team removed an incredible amount of English ivy from my property, have cut down and removed several very large trees, and even made a fire pit circle out of cut logs. They also cut up and stacked firewood from a tree they cut down. You could not ask for a better tree removal service!"

"Everything about the service was great but I could not give perfect score because I expected the yard would be cleaned when they finished. I was not told and did not know that the holes would be left open and all the sawdust and dirt piled all around. I am disabled and elderly. I am still trying to find help to fill the holes and clean up the mounds of sawdust. And that will cost more! Mr Huskens was very kind, and communicated with me throughout the process, and even made a trip back to me to give the receipt for my payment."

"This is a very nice young couple who does such beautiful work. I had a horrible, overgrown flowerbed in the front of my house that I have been overwhelmed with for at least two years. They came out quickly to view the project when I requested a quote and gave me a reasonable price. They were able to come back in just a few days and do the work. They trimmed the shrubs and rosebushes and cleaned out all the briars and leaves in just a couple of hours. It looks beautiful after they finished. I will definitely be hiring them again in the near future."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Tree roots can take weeks to years to die, depending on the method you use. Chemical herbicides take the least amount of time—typically between three and four weeks—while homemade methods, like covering an old stump with leaves, could take between seven and eight years. If you’re unsure which method to use or how quickly you need to act, consulting with a pro is always a good idea.

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.

Not all evergreen conifers need to be pruned, but some do. Pruning pine trees is not necessary, but you can do so during June and July if you wish. On the other hand, spruce, firs, and junipers do need to be pruned from late winter to early spring.

Trees provide many benefits, including shade, habitat for local wildlife, and cleaner air, so it’s always a good idea to try an alternative strategy like crown reduction before you chop one down. But sometimes, cutting down a tree is the only option (like if it’s severely diseased). A licensed arborist can assess the tree and recommend the best course of action.

Large, established tree branches won’t grow roots, but if you find a young tree branch that’s less than about a year old, you’ve got a shot. Put it in water or soil as soon as possible for best results. You’ll know the branch is viable if it’s about the thickness of a pencil and has some leaves or needles.
