"I had 4 trees removed by Shades Of Green. The crew showed up before 7AM and starts planning their approach. Once plan had been laid out, the execution was so calculated and with accuracy. They maneuvered their crane right next to my garage as a staging place. Trimmed the 3 big trees right next to my garage with accuracy making sure that the hanging removed tree was safely transported above my garage and house safely to the ground. Protected my lawn and driveway with mats. The whole process was so neat and not to mention you got the front row seat of a spectacular event with big cranes, Bucket trucks and other machinery on the ground. The crew was so precise and shows expertise with their approach. From the ground crew, tree climber, crane operator, the Crew Chief, Julio and Tom the Arborist they showed professionalism and are respectful of the owner’s requests. Everyone in my neighborhood is congratulating me for the outcome, credits are due for Shades Of Green crew! I will seek for their services again and they are highly recommended. -Elmer (Langhorne, PA)"

"Jay and his company are awesome! They listened to what I wanted and designed and installed exactly what would deliver what I asked for (color and deer resistant). And Jay continues to visit me, to service my concerns on a couple of plants that did not take (live) after being planted in Oct. Very competitive pricing too!"

"Willy and his crew do excellent work. We have had them work on our property for 3 years doing a Spring cleanup, mulching, planting scrubs and bushes, refreshing and extending red stone, removing dead shrubs, safely killing weeds, putting new sand between our bricks in our front and rear large patios, and emptying and cleaning our pond. Willy’s pricing is fair and he is very knowledgeable of bushes, shrubs and correct placement and care. We very highly recommend Willy’s Landscaping."

"This was a small job, basically grinding part of a stump that got missed by the original service. I wish I'd hired Gallagher to begin with. They were easy to reach, showed up when they were supposed to just for a quote, but the quote was so good that I was able to approve the work right away. And because they'd brought the machine with them they were able to *do* the work right away. It didn't take long but they took time after the grinding to clean up the site and leave it in good enough condition that it will be easy for me to deal with it later. I am really pleased."

"Jim Rhoads, the owner came out promptly and explained every aspect of the job which included the removal of a very large cherry tree and flush cutting the stump as well as trimming the dead wood off a locust tree. He had a big crew of professionals who worked well as a team to get the job done meticulously. All of the wood and debris were hauled away leaving my yard looking absolutely beautiful. I was quoted a reasonable price for a job very well done. He is fully insured which is important in this line of work! I was extremely pleased with Tomahawk Tree Service and highly recommend them. I will definitely use them for any future tree service I may need."

"The owner and team of workers were respectful to me, my property and the job. They asked me what areas I wanted trimmed. The second tree had several bird nests with eggs. The tree climber trimmed around the nest and relocated the eggs and nest into the tree next to the tree being removed. Awesome work! I will hire Tomahawk if I ever need tree service again."

Arborists FAQs, 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.

You will know that an oak tree needs to be removed when you see vertical cracks or dead branch stubs, which indicate internal decay. Other signs include trunk rot near the base of the tree and sprouts or small branches coming from the trunk.

You should prune ornamental trees once every other year after the fruit has matured and begun to drop. You should also prune out dead branches whenever you see them. Pruning too often can stimulate more growth, especially in faster growing varieties like Bradford pears.

An unsafe tree can cause serious damage to your home and property, so tree inspections are important to ensure your home isn’t in danger from a nearby tree. Unhealthy trees can also be unsafe trees, as diseases and insect damage can compromise a tree’s stability, leading to potential damage and safety risks.

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!
