"We had a very large/dying tree taken down. The work was done promptly, pricing was fair and the workers were very neat. Once all logs were removed, they made sure to clean up all debris. I would definitely use them for any future tree work and would highly recommend Woodchuck to others."

"I had a great experience hiring Arbor Care Tree Management. Led by a certified Arborist, this highly skilled team showed what true professionals can do when they face challenging jobs like mine. I had a 65 ft Spruce tree that stood a few feet from my shed and was surrounded by fencing and structures on my neighbors property. There was no way this tree could be felled by standard methods. Arbor Care found a way to set up a complex rigging system which they used to take the tree down in sections with no damage. Even a family of Wrens that lived in a birdhouse just a few feet from the tree were untouched. I also had them prune two very large trees, a Beech, and an Oak. They literally went out on a limb to reach areas in those trees. Now my trees are healthy again and look so much better. There is a lot more sunlight in my yard now. It makes the yard look and feel airy and open again. My wife and I are looking forward to spending time on our patio now. Arbor Care came with the right equipment to get the job done. You can tell they care about the safety of their tree climbers, and they care about protecting your trees and property too. The results were amazing, the price was fair, and they were a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Arbor Care and will definitely use them again."

"The owner was friendly, on time and did an excellent job. He took out the stump, made sure he got all of the stump and roots and cleaned up after himself. We would recommend there company to grind a stump to anyone. Thanks for a job well done."

"Jerry responded less than an hour after I posted the job and I had an incredibly fair quote an hour after that. Jerry and his crew took down a very large cottonwood tree in our yard. They were right on time they communicated the process in a cohesive and very understandable way. They were careful not to hurt the lawn. They worked incredibly hard and finish the job in about five hours. I would highly recommend this company. You would be doing yourself a disservice if you didn’t give them a call."

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.

Salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, and burning can all help dissolve a tree stump. You can also bury the tree stump in soil or mulch to help it rot naturally. Killing a tree stump prevents future regrowth, but you may also remove it by digging it out or grinding it.

The amount of time it takes for a tree trunk to rot depends on several factors, including the tree’s size, species, and environmental conditions. It can take anywhere from a few years to several decades for a tree’s trunk to rot. A tree stump, on the other hand, can take up to 10 years to disappear after it’s decayed naturally.

It could be anywhere from weeks to years for a dead tree to fall. A dead tree falls based on its weight, how it leans, the state of its roots, the state of decay, and what local windstorms are like, among other factors. Since it’s hard to predict the fall’s timing, it’s important to cut down a dead tree quickly and avoid any unpleasant surprises.

Licensing requirements for arborists, also known as tree surgeons, vary by state and municipality. Many areas require a license, which often involves specialized education and experience. Even if not mandated, it's wise to hire a licensed professional as they tend to have more experience. Beyond licensing, look for certifications from organizations like the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) or the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA), as this indicates a higher level of expertise. Certified arborists must typically pass a comprehensive exam. Always confirm that the arborist has a business license and is fully insured to protect yourself from liability. Seeking positive recommendations from local homeowners is also a good step in finding a qualified professional.
