"Thomas is a very capable, highly skilled arborist. I would not think of looking for anyone else to remove trees on my property. He was able to drop the two trees we needed removed exactly where he said he would, and there was no risk to any of the surrounding property. I cannot recommend him highly enough."

"The service was done exactly as promised and Alex was very responsible and very meticulous. I’d recommend him to do my tree service again. My daughter also used him to clear the trees on her new property and he did an excellent job on that project as well."

"I contacted Demetree based on a recommendation from Nextdoor. I have three stands (3 trees per stand) of River Birch that had totally taken over. Couldn’t even get grass to grow due to the way the shade spread. Demetrio and his crew showed up when they promised, worked quickly and safely, and trimmed the trees perfectly. They removed branches and a couple of the smaller trees that were dumping leaves onto the house. They kept me up to date and involved, and they made sure that I understood what they were doing an why. They also made sure that I was good with all removals. They cleaned up perfectly and did a great job for what I consider to be a fair price. I highly recommend Demetree."

Arborists 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.

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

Maple trees start the growing season by developing small groups of red flowers where the tree's fruit, the samaras, will appear in the coming weeks. Later in spring, the samaras, which many call whirlybirds or similar names, develop into single-winged seed carriers that spin when falling or drifting in the wind. 

An arborist specializes in tree care, performing tasks such as pruning, treating diseases, and removing hazardous trees. They also assess soil conditions, plant trees, and develop landscaping plans to ensure healthy growth. They also manage debris cleanup, inspect equipment, and record maintenance activities. Arborists often collaborate with landscapers and professional tree maintenance services, applying their specialized knowledge and problem-solving skills to maintain tree health and safety.

The costs vary from $250 to $5,000 per tree, depending on the size, complexity of the trimming, and labor.
