"We had 7 trees that needed removal as they were blocking our entire house and growing into our siding. I spoke with Joe about getting a quote, and he came to our house in under an hour to give us a quote. The quote was extremely fair, so we decided to hire TLC. Joe and crew came THE NEXT day, removed all 7 trees in just a few hours. He got rid of all the debris from cutting down the trees, blew our leaves, picked up leftover fruit dropped from our trees, etc. He and team did an amazing job, and now, our house is viewable and safe again! It was super impressive, and we are thrilled with the work he and team did! Thank you TLC Tree & Landscaping Care!!!"

"100% satisfied. Had contracted with a less expensive option who decided they did not want to show up and work. Bradley @ Blue Cord had given me a quote but I was going cheap. After firing the first company Blue Cord was able to come out the next day and do the work. Superior equipment, top notch customer service, and friendly smile, makes this a for certain hire next time. Check out their website, give them a call and don't look back. I have never been more pleased with an honest and professional contractor. Well done."

"The biggest surprise, especially for the unknown weather that happens is, Vantage Property Solutions LLC took care of snow removal for the second time and I didn't have to call or worry about it. It was just done, what a wonderful feeling to know they did exactly what I had hoped they would do, and it was done for a reasonable price."

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.

Yes, you should trim the lower branches of your maple tree for safety. Trimming maple trees as they grow helps lift the crown and canopy and trains it to grow straight up. A good rule of thumb is to prune enough branches to leave 6 feet of clearance under the tree.

A tree can grow back from its stump, but full regrowth is unlikely (especially for more stubborn conifer trees). Instead, trees are more likely to send up a number of shoots from the dead stump, which will try to develop into primary stems over time. In other words, it will start to look increasingly bushy. The goal of killing and drying out a tree stump is to prevent that from happening, as well as make the stump easier to completely remove.

No. Most of the time, suckers are only a sign that the tree is experiencing stress. However, they can also be the canary in the coal mine, letting you know that something else is stressing your tree. If you have lots of suckers on your tree, calling in an arborist or a tree care expert is always a good call to determine the cause and develop a solution that de-stresses your tree.

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.
