"THE JOB---remove 2 40-50 ft silver maples with 3 ft diameter trunks. Trees were between the house and fences. Remove all debris and rake area clean. Kevin and crew arrived daily and on time. They worked steady even through the rain showers. Stump grinding by Brad Wadsworth was completed on tree 1 while tree 2 was being cut. Both companies worked together and efficiently, completing the job on time with no injuries or accidents. The house and fences were unmarked. Clean up was excellent. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND STILE TREE SERVICE LLC."

"My grass was really high and he tackled the job no problem. He was polite and professional. My yard looks fantastic. It impressed my neighbor across the street how great it looked - the best in the 4 years I have lived there - that he asked for a business card. I definitely recommend!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Although it’s possible, heavy machinery like a crane is necessary for removing an entire tree stump and all. This procedure is extremely costly, time-consuming, and usually unnecessary, as there are plenty of convenient and affordable stump removal options. 

Your best bet, if you want to be sure to remove a tree and its stump efficiently, is to speak with a professional. They’ll be able to walk you through the entire process.

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.

While palm trees can bring aesthetic appeal to your yard, they have a couple of drawbacks. The main disadvantage is that many types require warm climates, so if you live in a cold region, you need to ensure you pick a palm that can withstand the freezing temperatures. Another downside is that maintenance can be difficult because of their height, which means you will need to pay a pro to prune the tree as needed.

Burning a tree stump can be effective, but it comes with safety considerations and isn’t always best for every situation. It's essential to check local regulations and assess the safety risks involved. Stumps that are near wooden structures or other non-moveable flammable objects aren’t good candidates for burning due to the risk of the fire spreading. Alternatives like grinding or a DIY stump rotting project might be safer and quicker for getting the job done.

Bradford pear trees bloom in early spring with small white flowers. They typically flower for at least two weeks. In bloom, these trees often emit a foul-smelling odor that’s often compared to rotting fish. Bradford pear trees will sometimes bloom in the fall due to drought or other stress-inducing conditions.
