"Let me start by saying. These guys are one of the few companies I have come across lately that will go above and beyond for there costumers. I got my self in a pinch on firewood when I was out of town and they delivered firewood the very next day. It wasn't the full load but it kept my family warm for sure. Thanks a ton. I also had an ash tree fall on my garage and they cut it up and also brought to my attention a couple other worry some trees. Very respectful and very helpful company. Thank you again for all you have helped me with."

Customers say: True professional

"They removed a tree from my property, the owner of the company, was very particular about leaving our yard like he found it. We couldn’t even tell they had come, except for the tree they removed. Very friendly and professional, was concerned about our worries about the tree. We are on a fixed income and the owner understood and completed the work on our budget. They came back the next day and grounded the stump up and cleaned all the sawdust up. I would highly recommend Tipline tree service and grinding. And can I mention they volunteer their services in the community. It’s hard to find good, hard working men in this time and day that really care. I highly recommend there services."

"Eric and his men were very professional and friendly. They cut down close to 30 large pine trees, some were near structures. All work was completed in a safe and timely manner. The price was very reasonable. I highly recommend this company and intend to have them comeback to remove more trees in the future. Thank You"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Carefully pruning small roots no thicker than three inches in diameter won’t harm the tree. However, cutting larger roots may impact the tree's stability and nutrient absorption. It's advisable to consult an arborist or tree care professional to evaluate the root's size, the tree's health, and the potential impact of cutting. Proper tree pruning techniques and timing can minimize damage, but larger root removal may necessitate expert guidance to avoid compromising the tree's overall health and stability.

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.

Your local government is usually in charge of pruning trees on public property, and the power company is responsible for trees near power lines (even if they’re on your property). Whether or not they top these trees depends on their approach to pruning. You won’t be able to do much to control this, but you can contact them to find out more about their pruning process.

Trees that flower in the spring—like dogwood, cherry, magnolia, and pear—should not be pruned during the winter. These spring-flowering plants grow buds on old growth, so you’ll actually remove what would’ve been gorgeous flowering foliage. Instead, wait to prune until right after they bloom, when the flowers fade.

Most plum trees are pruned into a vase or open wine glass shape. They’ll have a shorter central leader (the trunk) that supports three to four main branches. Of course, this isn't always the case. If you have a European plum tree, you can grow it in a pyramid shape. Let the central leader extend the length of the tree and prune smaller branches to create the pyramid.
