"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."

"Alex was awesome! He was very professional and gave us several options for taking care of our tree. This allowed us to do as much or as little as we wanted and could afford for the tree work. He was very thorough in his work and we are very pleased with how it all turned out. He was timely and professional during the entire project. We highly recommend his company."

"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

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.

Opt for a barefoot tree. Pros harvest barefoot trees when they’re dormant (leafless). They shake the dirt from the root ball and pack it in moist material. 

These trees can cost half as much as the trees at your local nursery, and you can buy them online—so there’s a much wider selection. Just make sure you keep your barefoot tree cool until you’re ready to plant it.

You can use a chainsaw, but it won’t remove the entire stump or root ball and is not a recommended method. It takes quite a bit of physical work to achieve and will likely dull or ruin your chainsaw. Instead, consider using salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, stump grinding, or burning to kill a tree stump. These methods allow you to kill a stump using minimal machinery and physical exertion.

Whether you should remove the roots of a dead tree depends on whether they’re damaging nearby areas. For instance, if the roots continue to grow near sidewalks, driveways, or the foundation of your home, they can cause damage. If you want to plant something else in that spot, removing the roots can make it easier for the new tree or plant to grow.

Most experts recommend removing a tree that has sustained more than 25% loss in the limbs, trunk, or circumference of the bark. Doing an initial trimming of damaged and dangling branches, but then waiting a few days of monitoring to decide how much more you might need to cut can help you better assess the total damage to the tree. However, consulting a tree maintenance pro to make this determination the best course of action before removing a tree.
