"Brian responded quickly to my request for an estimate and also for work to be done. He and his team were professional, polite, and friendly. They removed two large maples, one tall pine, and a large limb growing over my home. The arborist, Eric, was incredible. He made the work look easy, although you know it wasn't. The team removed all branches and wood, even blowing the tree cuttings off the roof, and raking all debris. The took a large limb that had fallen over the winter which was too large for me to move and was just laying in the back of my yard - thanks!! They also cut some branches for me for firewood. Thank you for a job well done. It is obvious Brian and his team take pride in their work and that job safety and customer satisfaction were top priority for Brian."

"The estimate was a good discussion. He's an Arborist which was really helpful. The work was fast and the next day. The workers friendly and responsive to a request I made. They cleaned up the yard well. Looking forward to the stump-grinding which is scheduled. Thank you very much!"

"I have used other Landscapers in the past and have even taken care of my own yard - but it is too much to handle during the fall, because my yard is large and there are a lot of trees.
This fall I was not satisfied with my previous Landscapers service, so I contacted Larry at Luxury Lawn.  Larry's team came out and cleaned up my yard and all of my multitude of leaves.  Everything was neat and clean and I was very happy with the results!

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

Generally, no, tree topping isn’t a good technique, and you should avoid using it in most cases. Tree topping may be the only good option to save a tree following severe damage after a storm, but in most other cases, it’s not the right choice. Tree topping can leave trees vulnerable to disease and further damage, and most pros will suggest against it.

Costs range from $500 to $5,000 per tree, depending on size, location, and accessibility.

While it’s best to have access to large, healthy, strong trees in a safe position, treehouse living is still possible without them. Contractors can fit tree posts to build the structure onto or use posts as additional support alongside the trees themselves. If you’re in doubt about the suitability of the trees on your land, consult with a local treehouse builder before you start the project.

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.
