"Steve was amazing! He came out the same day to look at the tree, provide an estimate, then came back the next day to remove the tree. He was quick, efficient, friendly, and professional. I highly recommend Douglas Tree Service!"

"From the first meeting, Justin Johnson was professional and knowledgeable about the tree. He asked me what I wanted and didn't want. The day of the tree removal; they were actually early. They removed the tree efficiently and rather more quickly than I thought it would be. They also cleaned up and there were a lot of pine needles!! I have already asked about them returning in the new year to trim my remaining trees. I would certainly use them again."

"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"

Tree Service 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.

If you don’t trim your palm trees, you can expect several negative outcomes, including:

  • Unhealthy palm trees attract pests, diseases, and fungi 

  • Dead falling fronds can cause severe injury or damage to your home, pedestrians, or cars

  • Dead palm branches are flammable and can catch fire, especially during a lightning storm

The best tools for tree removal include a chainsaw for large trees, an ax for notching and cutting down small trees, and a wedge to help control the direction a tree falls in. A hatchet can be useful for very small trees, but won’t be effective for medium to large trees. 

Most experts recommend removing a tree that has sustained more than 25% loss in the limbs, trunk, or circumference of the bark. Doing an initial trimming of damaged and dangling branches, but then waiting a few days of monitoring to decide how much more you might need to cut can help you better assess the total damage to the tree. However, consulting a tree maintenance pro to make this determination the best course of action before removing a tree.

On average, tree removal costs around $750, with a typical range between $200 and $2,000. The final price depends on several factors, including the tree's height, trunk diameter, species, and overall health. Accessibility is also a key factor; costs will be higher if the tree is in a hard-to-reach area or located near structures like power lines or your home. Additional costs may apply for services such as stump removal (which can add $100 to $150), log-splitting, debris cleanup, and obtaining necessary permits. It is also customary to tip the professional, usually between $20 and $100.
