"My wife and I hired Maple Tree and Landscaping after dealing with various landscapers over the years that just did not work out how we wanted to. Maple Tree and Landscaping was recommended to us by one of my wifes friends and I can honestly say I have never been happier with how my yard has come along. The gentleman named Dario is such a professional and his work will speak for itself. If I could rate them more than 5 stars I would in a heartbeat. If you are looking for a Landscaping service, look no further."

"Edd and his crew did a SUPERIOR job removing two very large trees, one over 50 feet tall (and planting a much smaller tree in its place), and the other over 75 feet tall, all in the tight confines of a townhouse community. They were the hardest-working crew I've ever seen, all at a price nobody else would touch. My neighbors and I all enjoyed the show, wherein my one neighbor hired Edd on the spot to remove one of his trees. Their stump-grinding and cleanup was meticulous. These guys are artists, and are the last word in tree removal. I only wish I had more trees for them to remove!"

"I had two trees and the stumps removed. I was very impressed with quality and speed of the job. The crew were complete professionals. My yard was free of any debris or wood chips. They add some top soil and and grass seed where the stumps were. I would highly recommend tomahawk."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It’s not always easy to tell when a tree is dying, although signs like dropping branches and brittle bark can sometimes offer clues. It can also be difficult to know whether a tree is dead or dormant, especially if it’s a deciduous tree. You’ll want to wait until a growth season to get a good idea of a tree’s health. When in doubt, contact an arborist for a consultation.

Aside from removing dead or diseased branches, you should prune your trees somewhere between every one and three years. Some people—particularly commercial farmers—prune their apple trees yearly to produce higher yields. This is the best way to promote tree health. That said, the average homeowner can get away with hard-pruning their mature apple tree every other year or every three years. 

Unless there’s some sort of rule in your community’s homeowners’ association that requires you to remove a stump, there’s no law that says you have to take it out. If you’re not wedded to the idea of removing it, there are plenty of ways to get creative with this tree remnant. Using the stump as the medium for a wood carving or turning it into a planter are just two examples of ways to repurpose a tree stump.

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.

If a tree stump is removed properly, the chances of a tree growing back are low. However, if a tree has a robust root system, roots can sometimes sprout and someday grow into a tree. The chance of regrowth will depend on several factors such as the type of tree, soil quality, and strength of the root system. In general, it is not recommended to plant a tree where a stump was removed.
