"ETC has true arborists in it. They know trees and they can remove them with the minimum of damage. My wife has plants everywhere and they avoided damage to far more of the plants than we had hoped. I asked them to do some extra work at the time and they got it done, too. At my son's house he pointed out that the Oak he had could only be worked on after the beginning of November or it could harm the tree, too. That's what I mean that they know trees and have true arborists doing the removal. They do my house and my son's and I have recommended them to several people. I have no connection to them EXCEPT as a happy customer."

"Few tree cutting services climb any more, this company is owned by the climber so you won’t get gouged for expensive equipment or the extra cost of need to hire a climber! Great work!"

"Beaver Jacks team of employees worked efficiently to trim trees and shrubs beautifully. They also removed a large shrub. Andy an arborist was my first contact . He made suggestions to perserve the health and beauty of trees and shrubs that I identified. Then he clearly described the plan and gave me a detailed estimate. Communucation was excellent from the office as well as all the personnel on the day they arrived. I want to thank the friendly ,kind staff for thier excellent job and care to make sure the job was completed as I requested. The clean up was awesome! Thank you to: John, Preston, Jake ,"T", Logan, Devlin and Tyler! Great Job!!! Would reccomend this company to my family and friends!!"

"Brandon was always super responsive. He kept me in the loop as to workers arrival time, answered my questions, and was always available to discuss the project. Every day the job site was clean. Brandon and his team are wonderful to work with. I will certainly call them for leaf removal, maintenance, as well as future projects. Highly recommend!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

No. Topping a tree refers to severely cutting down all its major branches and tree in a straight line. It was once recommended for streetside deciduous trees but has fallen out of practice. Topping leads to many problems, removing so much of the tree that many trees struggle to survive and become much more vulnerable to insects and diseases. Also, it doesn’t really help tree growth as once assumed and often leads to an ugly appearance of many sprouting stems in competition to become new main branches.

Planting trees far enough from your foundation will protect your home from root damage, but if you’re dealing with existing trees, you can still guard against roots. Root barriers form a physical boundary that will prevent roots from encroaching on your foundation and can help save you from expensive foundation repair costs.

It is possible to burn out a tree stump if it is dried out and in an area of your property with a large buffer. Drill holes in the stump and dig around the base so it burns more easily. Then, build a small campfire on top using kindling and firewood. You’ll need enough to keep the fire going for many hours to completely burn out the stump, especially if it’s large. 

Monitor the fire closely to ensure it doesn’t spread, and have a hose on hand if it starts to get out of control. When the fire is out, break apart the burned stump and dig out what’s left of it.  

If this sounds like a good option, learn more about how to burn a tree stump before attempting it, as it does come with risks.

Steer clear of the area and contact your utility company immediately. It will have a website portal and/or a phone number to report downed trees and electrical issues. If the tree appears to be on public land, you may want to call your local government and report the issue there, too.

It can be bad to leave a dead stump in the ground. A stump becomes a hefty piece of dead wood in time and eventually (especially with the help of rain) starts to rot. That makes it a locus point for diseases and pesky insects, as well as a bit of an eyesore. It’s best to remove a tree stump completely before it starts to decay, especially before it starts to fall apart. If the tree was removed because of disease, it’s even more important to fully remove the stump if possible.
