"I had planned on having the shrubs trimmed by this pro, but my brother in law did it for me. I would definitely recommend him to anyone that may need landscaping. He was very knowledgeable and very courteous when he arrived at my home."

"We were very pleased with the work done by Lemus Tree Service. They handled pruning of very tall tree branches as well as several dead tree extractions on our property. The estimate was provided the same day we requested it. On the scheduled day, the team arrived on time, did an excellent job, and completed a thorough cleanup afterward. We would definitely use their services again in the future. Highly recommended!"

"Patrick is actually an artist! He trimmed branches and trees evenly, and perfectly shaped them. Heâ s a perfectionist! Even cut down tiny dead sprigs. He transformed them from shabby and over grown to more alive, green works of art! We now have less needles from our pine trees and more sun for our swimming pool. His brother works non-stop as well. Donâ t hesitate. Call him. Richie and I are so pleased."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

After a big storm, you may not be sure if a tree was struck or not. Look for the telltale long scars, like strips or gouges in the bark of the tree, running in sometimes jagged lines down the length of the trunk. These scars will often show vulnerable living wood inside the tree. It’s also common to see scorched or wilted leaves on the side or top of the tree where lightning struck.

Grinding down a tree helps reduce the risk of foundation damage and pests and even helps your home’s curb appeal. Stumps can also be a safety hazard. If grass grows above the stump and someone else mows your yard, they may be in for a rude awakening when they accidentally hit it.

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.

Depending on the severity of the damage, a tree might continue healing for years after a split or a break. Saplings can usually bounce back in the spring in one or two seasons, but larger trees might take a few years to regain their former strength. If your tree is showing strong growth and is not dropping limbs, you can consider it healed after the first two seasons.

On average, tree removal costs around $750, with a typical range between $200 and $2,000. The final price depends on several factors, including the tree's height, trunk diameter, species, and overall health. Accessibility is also a key factor; costs will be higher if the tree is in a hard-to-reach area or located near structures like power lines or your home. Additional costs may apply for services such as stump removal (which can add $100 to $150), log-splitting, debris cleanup, and obtaining necessary permits. It is also customary to tip the professional, usually between $20 and $100.
