"Teresa came by to give me a bid on the clean up. She had already cleaned an apt. I explained what needed to be done and that the new people were moving in on Sat. She jumped right in, got on the phone, called her crew and started. 5. 5 hours later, 6 people and the place is beautiful. I was so impressed with her that I am hiring her husband to do the yard clean up also. Professional, fast, knows her business inside and out. Hire this company! She also does chemical free cleaning for people who have problems."

"Work was efficient and thorough. They cleaned up very well. They informed me on all the charges made and saved me money by explaining all the possibilities. They pulled all the dangerous roots in front of the house which is very important to me. Overall they were easy to work with and did a great job."

"I’ve been trying to find someone to cut back a giant tree that was hitting my neighbors house for months with nothing but bad luck. Watts came out and gave me an estimate a day after I called them. That was on a Thursday. That following Monday the guys showed up 9am on the dot! They were friendly and professional and got right down to business and beautifully rid me of my problem tree and all the debris in 15 minutes! I wish I had found them sooner!!! I can’t recommend them enough and I plan on calling on them every time I need a tree cut!!! Thank you, Watts gang!!"

"The Crew did a phenomenal job taking down a complete tree and then trimming another tree for me. They were very efficient and proffessional on not damaging any of the fences that were near the trees. I will definitely hire them back in the future and recommend their services to anybody!!"

"Brian provided estimate in February 2018. Advised us to wait till leaves were on the tree. Crew arrived on 6/7/2018 on time. Crew was extremely efficient and hard working with two climbers in the tree. Completed work in one day. All debris was chipped and hauled away, leaving our property neat and clean with no damage to landscaping. Brian was great to work with and the bid was very reasonable considering the complexity of the job. I would recommend them them unconditionally."

"Wish I had before and after pictures, the transformation is amazing! For the two years that I've owned my home the tree was an eyesore, now I can sit on my porch and admire it. Matt, the arborist, and the two Jasons were a great team, they even disposed of the dead branches I had removed from the plum tree earlier.
Since I hadn't requested a stump removal ( the plum) when I ordered the service they didn't bring the stump chipper with them, but returned another day to take care of it at no extra charge!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

Palm tree stumps can take as long as seven to ten years to rot naturally. Whereas some tree stumps rot within a year, palm trees tend to last longer due to their deep root networks. Chemical rotting (described above) can help speed the process up so your palm tree stumps rot in under two months.

It’s not as common for Dutch elm disease to affect other types of trees, especially if the surrounding trees aren’t elms. However, it is possible for DED to spread to other trees, particularly in northern states, like Minnesota. In fact, it’s a good idea to use geography to identify wood and determine which types of trees are in your yard. 

Unfortunately, the complex and shallow root system of elm trees makes surrounding elm trees particularly vulnerable to DED. Early discovery is key!

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

If you ever want to see the literal fruits of your labor, you’ll need to prune your peach trees. Without pruning, the trees may not grow or bear fruit since the nutrients will be divided among too many offshoots to provide any with enough energy to produce the peaches. Plus, if parts of the peach tree become diseased or pest-ridden, pruning can nip those problems in the bud.
