"Nick gave us a very reasonable estimate, and a window of when the job would be completed. After we accepted Nick job proposal, he contacted us with a day and time he would arrive for the tree removal. The trees (dead Ash) were removed, and the area was cleaned up beautifully. I highly recommend Nick, he is dependable and professional!"

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

Using Epsom salt to kill a tree stump typically takes between six and 12 months. While this may seem like a long time, it is significantly faster than the natural decomposition process, which can take up to seven years. This method is a viable DIY option for stumps that do not pose an immediate hazard. If you need a faster solution, you can hire a professional for stump removal or grinding, though this may cause more damage to the surrounding ground.

No. Topping a tree refers to severely cutting down all its major branches and tree in a straight line. It was once recommended for streetside deciduous trees but has fallen out of practice. Topping leads to many problems, removing so much of the tree that many trees struggle to survive and become much more vulnerable to insects and diseases. Also, it doesn’t really help tree growth as once assumed and often leads to an ugly appearance of many sprouting stems in competition to become new main branches.

Some trees will bounce back just fine, and others will struggle and possibly die. Evergreens, for instance, have a very difficult time recovering after droughts and usually die after periods of extreme dryness. Usually, you’ll have to just wait and see—if the drought occurs in wintertime, it’s possible that your tree will recover during the gentler springtime.

Tree experts don’t advise against digging through tree roots, but instead encourage caution and consultation with a local arborist to make sure you don’t damage the tree’s structure or interrupt its water or nutrient intake. An arborist can recommend specific practices when digging and help prune the roots or dig a trench for utilities with a tool that can remove soil without touching the tree’s roots.

Your neighbor is not in a good position to know if your trees are truly dead or pose any kind of danger. That’s why hiring an arborist or tree service expert can be such an important part of the process. If the trees are still alive and don’t pose any threat, you’re in the clear (but you may want to document and photograph everything in case events turn sour down the road).

But if a tree is visibly dead and near the property line, you should remove it to be safe. If a dead tree falls on a neighbor’s property, they may have grounds to sue for negligence. If any branches on trees have died, it’s a good idea to cut them back for similar reasons.
