"Mike's Tree Service is awesome! The cost was fair and the work they did was great! They trimmed back large trees hanging over my fence to let the sun back into my yard. Trimmed up my overgrown Maple Tree and Live Oak and removed a dead tree. I would definitely hire them again."

Customers say: Quick response

"Their foreman Steven showed up on time and gave me a very decent quote for what I needed (tree trimming, fallen limb removal, and dead tree removal). I went ahead and hired them. Steven and his team showed up on time for the service date, but a storm rolled in while they were working. They left due to lightning, but the front desk , Ellen, called me to let me know they would return to finish later that week. They returned on time too, and finished the job. They even left me 2 bags of potting soil to cover tracks in the shared yard I have with my neighbor after my neighbor requested it. Steven and Ellen were always very professional and courteous, and Ellen was prompt with communication. I wouldn't hesitate to hire them again."

"What a wonderful company. the owner, Roxanne kept us informed every step of the way. a crane was needed and she worked hard to get us the best price. Crew was very professional and friendly. Did a great job cleaning up after tree was down. Even helped rescue newborn baby racoons that were in a hollow of the tree. Momma raccoon was happy to get her babies back. Anthony is a very knowledgeable arborist and we were amazed at his climbing abilities and he knew exactly what limbs to cut. We were concerned since it was a large tree over our house. We worried that a limb would fall and severely damage roof. Anthony's skill ensured not one branch or limb, even a dead one didnt fall on roof. We are very pleased we chose Carolina Tree Service and will highly recommend."

"Daniel showed up on time for an estimate on initial yard cleanup and maintenance and I was pleased with the quote and he started the same day. We live on an acre lot and our yard looked great when he finished, we have a lot of limbs that fall and he cleaned everything up and all left over leaves from the fall. He even quoted us a very reasonable price to cut up and remove a tree that fell in our back yard and we hired him for bi-weekly maintenance. I highly recommend this business to tree work or lawn care."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The fastest ways to remove a tree stump are by grinding it or burning it.

Stump grinding is often the quickest method, with professionals able to chip away a stump and its roots within a single session. You have the option to hire a professional stump removal service or rent a stump grinder to do it yourself. However, it's important to note that these machines can be large, difficult to transport, and dangerous to operate without prior experience. For safety reasons, hiring a local arborist or landscape specialist is often recommended.

Burning is another fast option. Before you begin, check your local burn laws. The process involves drilling holes into the stump, filling them with vegetable oil, and waiting 24 to 48 hours. Afterward, you can add charcoal bricks to the surface and light the fire, which must be attended at all times.

For a more affordable but much slower alternative, you can use potassium nitrate pellets to accelerate the natural decomposition process. This method typically takes four to six months.

Not all evergreen conifers need to be pruned, but some do. Pruning pine trees is not necessary, but you can do so during June and July if you wish. On the other hand, spruce, firs, and junipers do need to be pruned from late winter to early spring.

The depth of tree roots depends on the species. Trees like oaks and maples can have root systems that grow down 20 feet or more. However, trees that grow in shallow soils will have roots that go only a few feet down. Research how your tree species grows in your climate area to estimate root depth.

You don’t always need a permit to grind a stump, but you might need one depending on your location and the stump’s surroundings. Permits are often needed if the stump is part of a protected tree species, near public areas or utility lines, or close to environmentally sensitive zones like wetlands. Some cities also regulate noise and work hours. Always check local rules before grinding, and contact your city or county office if you're unsure.

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.
