"The crew showed up on time with all of the right equipment and worked together to take down two trees, chip all of the branches and section up the logs... for the quoted price. No foul mouthed workers, no sketchy tactics or tools no damage to anything and no $$ games. True professionals. Wow. I would hire them again and I think you should too."

"We've worked with this provider before, for trimming our large trees. This time a very large tree, too close to our house and our neighbors, needed to be removed. He came on time, removed the tree, cleaned up the mess, and did a great job. He always gives practical advice and options that make sense. In this case the tree never should have been planted so close to the house (thanks, prior owner!) and he was willing to work with us to save it, for about the same cost as removal, but agreed that much as we love our trees, removal was best for everyone."

"Mark was fantastic. He came out for a quote and provided a very competitive bid, as well as some advice on options regarding whether to keep certain trees or not. The service was scheduled quickly. Mark and his crew came on time, and performed the work as agreed upon. I was not able to be there during the job, but it was not an issue. Mark told me to just check afterwards that what was promised, was done - and then to call back to handle the payment. Everything went smoothly, and I would highly recommend Bushman Tree Service."

"We have had Chris and his guys out to do tree work in our yard 3 times in the last 5 years, each time they come, they have done excellent work. They are always courteous and are very hard workers. Chris does a good job of keeping us informed regarding their schedule in regards to "our job". I would highly recommend them."

"Miller Tree Service removed several trees from my property. One very bushy 40 ft Leland Cyprus which required a crane to safely remove. Great job protecting other plants and property and removing all the debris."

"I highly recommend Suave and Sons Tree Work for anyone in need of tree services. They did an excellent job removing a large, difficult tree that was located VERY close to our house. The process was smooth and efficient, and the crew was clean and professional. The owner, Joel, was a pleasure to work with. He was easy to contact and was onsite working along the guys during the job. All of the guys were also very friendly and respectful. Overall, we had a great experience with this company and would not hesitate to use them again in the future."

"Mark at NW Arbor Care followed up promptly and came out to see my project which involved trimming several very large branches from 80 feet maples. He gave me a bid on the spot which seemed very reasonable. He clearly trusted his team to work with me, and was he ever right! They were great! Four people who knew what they were doing and worked together like clockwork. They were pleasant, good communicators, knowledgable, and really good at what they did. I'm so happy with the work which exceeded my expectations. They were flexible and thorough. They cleaned up so it looked better than when they came. I will hire them for any tree trimming needs in the future."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

The typical lifespan of a Bradford pear is relatively short, only 15 to 25 years. However, these trees have issues long before their life is over. Due to their soft wood and fast-growing branches, Bradford pear trees often split around 15 years, making them a risk for falling branches and more prone to disease. 

A dead tree should always be cut down, because it could fall and cause injuries or damage, and it can also attract insects like carpenter ants. A tree that’s diseased beyond repair should also be cut down, but it’s not always easy for a homeowner to tell. Signs of disease include dying branches, a hollow trunk, leaning, and discolored or missing leaves, but your best bet is to hire a local arborist who can evaluate the tree and tell you if it can be saved or should be cut down.

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.

Although it’s possible, heavy machinery like a crane is necessary for removing an entire tree stump and all. This procedure is extremely costly, time-consuming, and usually unnecessary, as there are plenty of convenient and affordable stump removal options. 

Your best bet, if you want to be sure to remove a tree and its stump efficiently, is to speak with a professional. They’ll be able to walk you through the entire process.

While there is a lot of debate about whether boiling water is strong enough to kill tree roots, it is not best to remove the roots from large, old trees. You may be able to weaken young roots enough to remove them manually, but boiling water will likely not do the trick for large root systems.
