"I had a huge stump to grind. The job was done quickly. The grinding went below ground level so I can plant grass, and he offered to come back if there was any problem. Very skilled and professional service."

"603 Yard and Tree Service did an excellent job. Their price was fair, they worked quickly, and the entire crew was professional from start to finish. Everything was completed exactly as promised, and they left the area clean when they were done. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing yard or tree work."

"Kucharski is the best! I had three huge oak trees that were starting to rot at the base and were within striking distance of the house. I contacted three tree services to get a quote. The first two came over, looked at the trees, and gave me a quote. When I told them that I wanted to keep the wood they both said, â No problem, but that doesnâ t change the price.â When Bill Kucharski came over he looked at the trees, walked around the property, and gave me a quote. All three quotes were comparable. When I told him I wanted to keep the wood, he said, â Oh, good. We wonâ t have to charge you for taking it away.â (By the way, I got 5 cords of wood from those trees and thatâ s multiple trips.) Then he said, â If you want us to broadcast the chips from the chipper into the woods we wonâ t have to charge you for hauling those away either.â That did it for me. Sign me up! In a few weeks his sons and their crew came over and took down the trees being very careful not to damage the property and not to let the logs roll down the hill. (Did I mention I live on a hill?) When they were done I was left with beautiful logs with no branches and they cleared away all the sawdust. Everyone was very friendly and clearly very knowledgeable when it came to taking down trees. I ended up hiring them again to take down another tree and I would hire them again in a heartbeat."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

It can be bad to leave a dead stump in the ground. A stump becomes a hefty piece of dead wood in time and eventually (especially with the help of rain) starts to rot. That makes it a locus point for diseases and pesky insects, as well as a bit of an eyesore. It’s best to remove a tree stump completely before it starts to decay, especially before it starts to fall apart. If the tree was removed because of disease, it’s even more important to fully remove the stump if possible.

Finding a reliable arborist starts with researching specialists in your area and checking their licensing and certifications. Use online resources like the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to conduct research on each company. Next, contact the arborist and ask the following questions to see whether they are the right fit for your project:

  • Do you handle or specialize in dealing with the issue I’m having?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Do you have any third-party certifications?

  • What equipment and strategies do you plan to use?

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.

If tree branches cross well into your property line, in many cases, these branches become part of your property, and you can trim them up until your neighbor’s property line. However, this issue will vary based on local ordinances, so you should do your research before making any decisions. Better yet, speak with your neighbor about how to handle any tree issues. 

If you don’t mind the branches, you can leave them be, but if they’re becoming a hazard, it’s definitely worth having a conversation.

In most cases, you should not use a pruning seal on trees after trimming. Applying a sealant can interfere with the tree's natural healing process, and it does not guarantee protection from pathogens. Instead of sealing the cut, the best practice is to support the tree's natural recovery by providing it with plenty of water and a dormant-style fertilizer. However, there are exceptions. Pruning seals may be recommended for very vulnerable species, like elm trees, in areas where dangerous diseases such as Dutch elm disease are prevalent. In these specific situations, the protection offered by a sealant can outweigh its downsides. For advice tailored to your situation, especially after cutting large branches, it is best to consult a local tree trimming professional.
