"I cannot say enough good about this family owned business. Supporting local businesses is easy when they are honest, reliable, friendly, and great to work with. The work they produce is superior. They were meticulous, and left my property in better shape than they found it. I highly recommend their tree services. Chuck and Dave were a pleasure to work with and their team were respectful, friendly and hard-working. Top-notch company. Bobby in that bucket truck with chainsaw in hand is fearless. I nicknamed him superman. Thank you DB Paulson for a great experience. See you again at tree trimming time."

"The crew was organized, worked quickly and cleaned up afterwards. They were very good at carefully lowering cut branches so as not to damage anything in the yard. Very professional. I was pleased with the results and wouldn't hesitate to use them in the future."

"The guys from Stable Landscaping did a tremendous job on my “Spring Cleanup” on fairly short notice at a more than reasonable price. My property has a ton of shrubs, bushes and trees and each of them was carefully trimmed to meet our exact request. They meticulously removed all of the remaining fallen leaves, branches and the old mulch and replaced it with a thick layer of new mulch. No corners were cut. They worked extremely hard for hours, most of it in the rain. I highly recommend Stable Landscaping."

"He gave me a free estimate beforehand, and the price was perfect. The garden was such a mess before he came and made it all new. He replaced the mulch, got me new flowers, mowed the lawn, and picked up trash around my property. With the tree removal, he cut down the whole tree and took all of the pieces away. He did an amazing job, would hire again"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It is possible to burn out a tree stump if it is dried out and in an area of your property with a large buffer. Drill holes in the stump and dig around the base so it burns more easily. Then, build a small campfire on top using kindling and firewood. You’ll need enough to keep the fire going for many hours to completely burn out the stump, especially if it’s large. 

Monitor the fire closely to ensure it doesn’t spread, and have a hose on hand if it starts to get out of control. When the fire is out, break apart the burned stump and dig out what’s left of it.  

If this sounds like a good option, learn more about how to burn a tree stump before attempting it, as it does come with risks.

The fastest ways to remove a tree stump are by grinding it or burning it.

Stump grinding is often the quickest method, with professionals able to chip away a stump and its roots within a single session. You have the option to hire a professional stump removal service or rent a stump grinder to do it yourself. However, it's important to note that these machines can be large, difficult to transport, and dangerous to operate without prior experience. For safety reasons, hiring a local arborist or landscape specialist is often recommended.

Burning is another fast option. Before you begin, check your local burn laws. The process involves drilling holes into the stump, filling them with vegetable oil, and waiting 24 to 48 hours. Afterward, you can add charcoal bricks to the surface and light the fire, which must be attended at all times.

For a more affordable but much slower alternative, you can use potassium nitrate pellets to accelerate the natural decomposition process. This method typically takes four to six months.

If a tree stump is removed properly, the chances of a tree growing back are low. However, if a tree has a robust root system, roots can sometimes sprout and someday grow into a tree. The chance of regrowth will depend on several factors such as the type of tree, soil quality, and strength of the root system. In general, it is not recommended to plant a tree where a stump was removed.

Yes, tree roots can regenerate after they’re pruned or cut. In fact, trimming can stimulate new growth, especially in healthy trees. The tree’s roots can still grow back even after a tree is cut down, (and learning how to get rid of regrowing tree roots is a separate feat). Still, if you don’t wish to harm a tree, pruning the roots should be done with extreme care, and ideally by a professional.

The typical lifespan of a Bradford pear is relatively short, only 15 to 25 years. However, these trees have issues long before their life is over. Due to their soft wood and fast-growing branches, Bradford pear trees often split around 15 years, making them a risk for falling branches and more prone to disease.
