"R&G Landscaping did a wonderful job on our trees. We have hired them twice to cut down dead large dead trees left from the winter freeze. Both times they responded to my initial call very quickly, coming over the same day to provide a free estimate that was fair for the scope of work. Once committed they came back to do the work at the agreed time, handled the work quickly and efficiently, cleaning up after themselves and hauling off all of the debris. One of our trees was very close to the pool and they made sure no droppings got into the pool, which was difficult but appreciated. I will definitely call R&G again when we need more work done and would recommend them to anyone in Corpus Christi."

"they did an excellent job for me, everyone was so amazed and asked me who are doing my lawn. My yard is absolutely beautiful, I couldn't really ask for more. His pricing is reasonable and absolutely fair."
Laying down squares of Floratam St. Augustine. Laying the squares is easy. Notice the prep work. There used to be weed infested grass in that area. Tilling is a lost art but Lawn Pros still uses this method before sod installs.

"Olive wood landscaping answered me quickly and came to my house the same day. He didn't charge me a lot for the big tree branch that was broken on my roof. He did a great job and very professional. I will be calling him again when I need my tree cut."

"I wasn't sure they'd be able to help me with my problem because of their name, but they were the fastest and most persistent to respond. They were concerned about my situation and sent two great guys. The technicians diagnosed the issue quickly and listened to our needs. Instead of insisting on doing a complete fix (which is what was needed) they recognized we just needed a good immediate fix until we get our solar panels installed in a couple of weeks. This saved us money. They also didn't do the minimum because we had guests in our home and needed to utilize the large appliances in our home. Not only were the electricians smart and caring they were friendly too. I also felt the cost wasn't astronomical too!"

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.

Many gardeners charge an hourly rate for their services, and your total cost will depend on the amount of services and the experience of the gardener. Gardeners with basic experience charge between $20 and $30 per hour, while a more experienced gardener can charge as much as $60 to $88 per hour.

The cost of lawn mowing is about $125, which you might need on a weekly or biweekly basis. However, the cost of soil testing averages about $1,450, which should only be done every three to five years. 

A tree can grow back from its stump, but full regrowth is unlikely (especially for more stubborn conifer trees). Instead, trees are more likely to send up a number of shoots from the dead stump, which will try to develop into primary stems over time. In other words, it will start to look increasingly bushy. The goal of killing and drying out a tree stump is to prevent that from happening, as well as make the stump easier to completely remove.

Aim to have your trees inspected and pruned in early spring. At this point in the year, tree service professionals can note where there is old growth from winter and cut that back to encourage new growth for the rest of the year. Pruning at the wrong time of the year could make your trees prone to diseases.

In some states and municipalities, you will need a permit to remove a tree on your property. In many cases where permits are required, a tree must reach a maximum height before a permit is required to remove it. You can either ask your local building department or a tree removal professional if you’ll need a permit. If you do, you can expect to pay between $50 and $150 for the permit alone. Your tree removal company should pull the permit for you and include the permit fee in your total.
