Anybody with a chainsaw and a pickup truck can call himself a tree trimmer. Rainhunters is a real company that will be around if you need them later. They are insured and post their insurance info on their website. You won’t get that from a guy with a pickup truck.

Rainhunters are professionals. They do top-quality work at a fair price. We interviewed three other companies and chose Rainhunters because of the professional way they presented themselves. Being members of the Better Business Bureau, having a website ([*** Link removed ***] posting their credentials and awards and being able to accept credit cards all made us feel more comfortable with them than some others. The fact that they listened to my concerns clinched the deal.  

I was most impressed with Rainhunters. I love trees and have seen too many butchered by tree-trimmers who wield chain saws like weapons to defoliate trees instead of tools to sculpt then and help them live better and longer. A tree is a living thing that should be treated with love, not just a trimmer’s paycheck.

I have a pool and contrary to most pool owners, I like having the limbs overhang to provide shade and a more natural atmosphere. When the owner, Ricardo Prieto, came out to give an estimate, he understood what I wanted and respected it. Some other companies tried to talk me into doing things their way instead of the way I wanted.

My wife was afraid that the trimmers might make our lovely old oak trees into “lollipop” tress like you see in parking lots and around commercial buildings. We conveyed that to Ricardo and he assured us they would not do that.

The crew was delayed coming out the first day, but the office called to let us know. That made a very good impression. So many service people don’t have such courtesy. We appreciated it.

If you don’t speak Spanish, you can always call Ricardo if you need to communicate anything. He will come out for the initial estimate and translate any concerns you have to his workers. Plus he will show up with them in the morning – at least he did with me (but maybe I was a challenging customer).

When the guys came to do the work, they were careful and asked before cutting too many branches, which was quite a relief. They were more concerned about making the customer happy than rushing through the job. Additionally, they were quiet, using a machete when appropriate, a small chainsaw that didn’t rouse the whole neighborhood and a small wood chipper. Plus, unlike other crews I’ve seen at neighbor’s yards, they did not have a radio blasting. We appreciate that some neighbors might not want to join us in this project by being assaulted by noise.

Overall, it was a great experience. Mike Nelson, McAllen.

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

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.

Grinding down a tree helps reduce the risk of foundation damage and pests and even helps your home’s curb appeal. Stumps can also be a safety hazard. If grass grows above the stump and someone else mows your yard, they may be in for a rude awakening when they accidentally hit it.

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.

Yes, you should trim the lower branches of your maple tree for safety. Trimming maple trees as they grow helps lift the crown and canopy and trains it to grow straight up. A good rule of thumb is to prune enough branches to leave 6 feet of clearance under the tree.

If you want to take your tree-planting hobby beyond your outdoor space, here are a few great ways to do it:

  • Encourage your neighbors to participate in the Arbor Day Foundation’s Tree City USA program, which has a four-step framework that helps communities grow and maintain their own tree cover.

  • Support businesses that plant trees. 

  • Lobby your local government to plant more trees around your community.

  • Donate to a tree-planting charity.
