"Excellent work! This family-owned company did a beautiful job xeriscaping my large front yard. They pruned trees and bushes as well as laying mulch, stones and gravel. I have happily recommended this company to friends and family."

"Arborist was very knowledgeable. Price was excellent. Service was good they could teach the rest of the service industry how to really provide â Serviceâ and they could charge a fee! (We all know about customer No service.) Top notch service and I HIGHLY recommend them! (And NO, this is NOT a paid recommendation.)"

"I hired Joshua with Box Tree Care to cut down trees that fell May 9th and trim up other trees / branches. He responded immediately, is courteous, friendly, knowledgeable, arrives on time, very prompt and his crew goes out of their way to make sure a great job is done, even if Joshua has to leave for a minute. They went around picking up odd branches without being told or asked. They cleaned up and hauled everything off. Very fast workers. I highly recommend Joshua for your arborist needs. He and his team are great!!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

In most cases, leaving tree roots underground is not a problem if the stump has been removed or ground below the soil. However, some larger roots may decompose, leaving dents in your soil. Additionally, some aggressive trees, including willows, oaks, elms, maples, and poplars may grow back from roots. Large aggressive trees with established root systems are more likely to grow back.

A grafted tree is a tree grown by combining two trees. It takes expertise. Branches from grafted trees don’t grow strong roots. Save yourself the time and frustration by having an arborist help you with this advanced project.  

You can often tell if a tree is grafted because it will have a noticeable line. Above the line, the bark will look different than it does below the line. It’s most common with fruit trees.

A pro can guide you on the alternatives to tree topping depending on the specific issues within your trees. For example, if you’re dealing with breakage and cracks in your tree, they may suggest canopy reduction, which removes less than 25% of the tree’s limbs. If you’re dealing with lesser damage, some intentional pruning may be all you need. If you’re looking to get a clearer view through your tree, the pro may also try windowing or skirting your tree.

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.

State and local laws vary, but in most cases, you are allowed to trim any branches from your neighbor's tree that cross your property line. However, it's important to ensure you do not damage the overall health of the tree in the process. Removing branches incorrectly can jeopardize the health of the tree and could lead to you being on the hook to replace it.
