"Sami came by when promised, gave a quote better than I expected, showed up on the date promised and the time promised! The whole project of 3 tree removals took less time than anticipated and they clean up very nicely. If needed, will definitely use again. I am impressed which hasn't happened with me in a long time. Thank you Sami's Tree Service."

"I am very satisfied with RG tree service's professional and responsible work style, including the cleanup after tree felling. I will definitely use them again and recommend them to my friends. The wood chips were originally supposed to be left for us, but because of the poison ivy contamination, Raul promised to specially deliver them next time. Looking forward to it.. Thanks again RG!"

Customers say: True professional

"This is a great team. Good references and the owner came out to give me a quote. They were the least cost bid to take down 6 Ash trees and their work was flawless. A nice crew, affable, hard working and all in safety gear. They ground stumps, chopped up and removed all the wood I did not want to keep. We included some trimming and mulching which left the yard in top notch condition. I would do business with them again and highly recommend this company."

"Called Tree Patrol in August after TS Isiaiahs. They were swamped with work which was understandable. They came when they could, 9/30/2020, and removed a large tree stump from a tree that fell. They were concerned about some things that were around the tree. I told them do what they could. Well.... They did it all and then some. The tree stump is removed and the ground was flattened. Couldn't be happier!! Will definitely use them again to trim some of my trees!!!"

"I hired Central Jersey Tree Services to remove a tree from my backyard that had significant rot. Andrey was friendly, professional and gave me an excellent quote for this service. He was patient as I collected estimates from other companies and was able to schedule the job with the help of Michelle (who was lovely to communicate win) within days of my making a decision. His team arrived a bit early on the day of and took care of the job in about an hour. They were quick, clean and safe and impressive to watch at work. They even left us some firewood for our fire pit which should get us through the season. I highly recommend their services to anyone in the area needing tree work!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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?

Tree removal costs typically don’t include stump removal, as that technically falls into a different service. The company you hire may offer the service for an additional fee; ask them if they offer it to ensure you get the best tree stump removal costs possible.

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.

White vinegar does not kill ivy on trees because its acetic acid concentration is not high enough to overpower it. Vinegar is an effective herbicide for weeds and other plants, but not for the strength of most ivies, including poison ivy and English ivy. You should use an herbicide to kill ivy, such as one with glyphosate, imazapyr, or triclopyr.

If you’re wondering whether you can plant a tree where the stump was removed, know that the soil conditions won’t be ideal, so you should avoid it. The soil beneath the previous tree will likely be depleted of nutrients, plus there may be roots left behind that will seriously hinder the growth of a new tree. Also, if you use salt or other chemical solutions to kill the stump, these can linger in the soil for months or even years and prevent healthy growth. It’s best to choose a different spot that’s at least three feet away for a new tree, or wait at least a year and thoroughly amend the soil before you plant.
