"This was a difficult project. Removal of a large maple tree with a central rotted section that threatened my neighbor's house if it fell. It had to be removed. The tree was on a slope, any tree section removed could roll down the slope and hit my neighbor's house. Josh tied every section to be removed to the tree with a system of pulleys so the section would fall and not roll down the slope. The work took three days to accomplish and was successful done. His price was $1,000 less than from another tree service company. I highly recommend his services."

"The tree removal project was in our American black walnut Grove, and demanded superior ability to fill the trees, so they did not damage other valuable trees, and also demanded that the trees be cut as close to the ground as possible, so as to conserve this valuable board feet of furniture lumber The brothers came fully equipped and worked at an efficient pace and we’re very polite and responsive to our request"

"Ben tackled a very difficult and dangerous tree safely. The tree could have caused serious damage to buildings, and he skillfully brought it down without any damage at all. He bucked up the wood and left it for our use. Ben is skillful and stuck by his initial quote, even when the job proved more difficult than was originally expected."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Since each tree is different, it’s impossible to say how long a dead tree can remain on your property. While it could be days, months, or even years, it’s highly likely that, at some point, the tree will fall. In the meantime, dying or dead trees can become a haven for pests, so it’s best to have them removed sooner rather than later.

Leaving the tree stump and letting it rot is never a good idea, as this leads to insect infestations and other frustrations. Additionally, decomposing trunks are at risk for diseases that spread out to the remaining plants and trees in the yard, thus ruining your whole outdoor aesthetic. It's usually best to remove the stump at the same time you remove the tree.

The cost of trees varies massively based on the size of the tree and the species. A small Colorado spruce can cost as little as $30, but a golden rain tree of the same size can cost $90. Large trees can cost $1,500 or more, depending on their species and height.

The recovery time for pruning depends on how much you prune, the species of tree, and how well you care for it afterward. All trees grow new wood and often sprout additional branches after pruning. Ideally, trees should recover from normal pruning after one or two years. Heavy pruning or slow-growing trees may take several years to fully recover.

If you’re wondering whether you can plant a tree where the stump was removed, know that the soil conditions won’t be ideal, so you should avoid it. The soil beneath the previous tree will likely be depleted of nutrients, plus there may be roots left behind that will seriously hinder the growth of a new tree. Also, if you use salt or other chemical solutions to kill the stump, these can linger in the soil for months or even years and prevent healthy growth. It’s best to choose a different spot that’s at least three feet away for a new tree, or wait at least a year and thoroughly amend the soil before you plant.
