"Jose and his crew cleaned up very well as if they were not even there. He is an expert at his job, definitely a professional. He made sure that he was being safe not just for himself and the crew but with the surrounding fence and obstacles. He made sure that I was satisfied with their work and asked if I needed anything else before leaving. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for Tree service needs. - Geo V"

"From the first time Michael made a contact with me he was very professional . We arranged a time for him to come to my home , look over the project and give me an estimate. He sent the written estimate to me in a prompt manner. I also requested a copy of his insurance coverage which he had emailed and sent to me from his carrier. His team arrived at my home at the agreed upon time and completed the work in a professional manner. As he worked, he would pause and asked my opinion to ensure that he was doing what I had requested. All work and clean up was completed in an efficient manner. I would highly recommend Blue Mountain Tree Service."

Tree Service 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.

You can use a chainsaw, but it won’t remove the entire stump or root ball and is not a recommended method. It takes quite a bit of physical work to achieve and will likely dull or ruin your chainsaw. Instead, consider using salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, stump grinding, or burning to kill a tree stump. These methods allow you to kill a stump using minimal machinery and physical exertion.

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. 

Signs include dead branches, growth over structures, diseases, pests, or roots impacting hardscapes.

A few signs a tree may be dead is if the leaves are dead and there are no signs of new blooms. You can also perform a scratch test on some of the branches to check the condition of the cambium layer beneath the bark.

If it is green, it is still alive, but if several are dry, brittle, and brown, the tree may be dying or dead. Always consult an arborist before assuming your tree is dead because you may be able to save it.
