"I live in Lacey. I thought getting a bid to take out 4 trees from a company so far away would be more expensive. I was so wrong. I called 4 different companies to get estimates. Only one company called me back. I set an appointment for an estimate and they gave a 3 hour window of when they would be here. They missed the window by over an hour. That company wanted $2800 to take out 4 trees. I went to Angie's list, put in my info and got 3 calls the next day. When Harold from H&M called... he said he could be here in 30 minutes. He showed up a couple minutes early. His estimate was half of the other company $1400 total to remove the trees and clean everything up. While he was here he pruned a couple of other trees and took out some weed trees no extra charge. Even though he was coming from an hour away he was still 5 minutes early. I am going to have him come back in the winter to trim some huge trees in my front yard. I can't believe that these guys have such great prices and did such a great job."

"February 18, 2019 Recommendation for Angie’s List Work Done by: Portland Tree Care, Boring, OR Work Done on: February 12, 2019 Scope of Work: Full pruning and thinning of two small Birch trees in front yard, two large Birch trees, one large Maple tree and one very large Sweetgum tree in back yard. Also apply a systemic insecticide soil drench to control Aphid in all of our Birch trees. Brian Mowld was quick to respond to my request for a quotation. He was able to email his quote to me the same day that he came to the house to look at the job. We had to be a little flexible with the planned schedule due to unexpected snow here. However, on the scheduled day for the project Brian and his two man crew, Jake and Dan, arrived on time and went right to work. They were very polite and professional and did a wonderful job for us including a very thorough clean-up. My wife and I are very pleased with the look and shape of our trees. It is also reassuring that our trees are now better prepared to withstand the strong East wind we get in our area. We have used Portland Tree Care in the past with very good results and this time was no exception. I will hire them again and would recommend them to anyone looking for knowledgeable and professional tree care. Dennis Austin 21563024 POR"

"Daryl and Heidi and the crew did a spectacular job and finished all the work I had asked for (and then some) in an efficient and knowledgeable fashion: removed tree limbs hanging over a neighbor‘s yard, pruned and trimmed 12+ tall lilac trees, trimmed and shaped all bushes, removed deadwood from another tree, cut back and shaped an enormous heirloom rose bush, and cleared away all the debris. They took obvious pride in their work and I will be happy to have them back again next year!!!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Any tree that needs to be pruned should be pruned to remove dead branches at least once a year. You may need to prune far more often if you’re trying to maintain a certain shape or to save a tree that suddenly becomes infected.

The ideal time to prune a tree depends on the type of tree. Typically, late winter or early spring is a good time to prune but isn't always the case for "towering trees." It's best to trim when trees are dormant and before blooms appear but can vary depending on the tree type. It's always best to research the type of tree or ask a professional tree trimmer to determine when is the perfect time to prune your tree.

Sometimes, knowing when you need tree-trimming services is straightforward, and other times, you have to do some investigating. Some tell-tale signs that you should have your tree trimmed include:

  • A poorly-formed tree with unruly branches, which makes the tree appear odd-shaped. 

  • A tree with tall or large branches that interfere with power lines or your home’s exterior.

  • A tree that provides too much shade in the yard due to branch overgrowth.

Finding a reliable arborist starts with researching specialists in your area and checking their licensing and certifications. Use online resources like the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to conduct research on each company. Next, contact the arborist and ask the following questions to see whether they are the right fit for your project:

  • Do you handle or specialize in dealing with the issue I’m having?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Do you have any third-party certifications?

  • What equipment and strategies do you plan to use?

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.
