"Good work, fast work. But very expensive. But then, I did not compare much so maybe others are just as expensive. Explanation of work a bit fast for me to realize the consequences of certain work."

"Nick and his crew are experts in the tree removal business. We own apartments and they were able to cut down several large pine trees between the apartment buildings with no damage to the buildings. We were only in town for a couple weeks and Nick fit us in his schedule to get our job completed. Nick is honest, fair, a hard worker, and very personable. After they were done cutting down the trees they cleaned up everything. I would highly recommend V-Kley's Tree Service."

"Stephen and his crew did a re-roofing project for me. Last fall I decided to have the original cedar shake roof removed (installed in 1999) and put on architectural shingles. Another roofing company bid and completed the easy part of the job last fall but then did not answer my calls, direct messages and Facebook messages when I tried to schedule completion of the rest of the roof. So, I contacted Stephen of Let's Build Oregon. Stephen was always very prompt to answer my phone calls and showed up that first day for the estimate. The job was completed to my satisfaction, on time and on budget. That last part is a big deal because the job that they completed was the hardest part of a roof (all the small regions with many cuts and lots of opportunity for water to leak). I would recommend Let's Build Oregon for your roofing needs. Thanks Stephen Mitson."

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

Deciduous shade trees (the type of trees whose leaves fall off in autumn) need to be pruned in late winter—between February and March. That’s because it’s easier to find and remove sick or dead branches when no leaves are present. And wounds close and heal faster in colder temperatures so pruning them at this time also makes them less prone to infection.

You should avoid cutting off the top of mature cherry trees. This process is called tree topping, and it’s not recommended for cherry trees—or any trees, for that matter. Tree topping removes between one-third to half of the length of the tree trunk, resulting in structurally unsound, fruitless suckers. The only exception is for saplings. Young pie, sour, and tart cherry trees that are over 30 inches tall in the fall or winter before the tree blooms can benefit from heading cuts.

Generally, homeowners do not need permission to cut down a tree on their own private property, but there are several exceptions where a permit may be required. You might need a permit if the tree is particularly large, old, or a protected species, such as a heritage tree. Trees located near public property or power lines can also be subject to special rules. Additionally, many local governments and homeowners associations (HOAs) have regulations controlling which trees can be removed to manage an area's appearance or prevent the spread of invasive species. To avoid hefty fines, it is crucial to check with your local government and HOA to determine if a permit is needed before you begin.

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.

Horticulturist is a broad term for any type of plant and soil expert. An arborist, meanwhile, specializes in all aspects of tree care. You should hire an arborist when you need assistance with tree-related tasks, such as pruning large trees, removing trees, diagnosing a sick tree, or emergency tree services. Horticulturists aren’t qualified to handle those types of tasks.
