"Greg did a fantastic job for us. He ground up 4 tree stumps and even went above and beyond by grinding up a bed with huge blackberry nodules and ground cloth. We can now plant in this bed. He’s great to work with, pleasant and professional, prompt and a good communicator. I’d hire him again in a minute!"

"Great Job, was able to change day and show up for an earlier date to get a quote. We decided on a reasonable price for the work that day and started work two days later. They stated the work could take 2 days but they finished in one day and got it all done. We were very happy with the final product. We will do services with them again."

"George did a fine job on my current project! Completely replaced damaged and wet rot framing on the front end of my mobile home including the window with a quality solid wood, caulking, prime and paint. It looks wonderful! Winter doesn't stand a chance now. Great communication throughout, on time, knowledgeable, friendly, polite and very easy to work with. He answers every question and gets to work! Everything is clean. Professional work, timeframe and cost are reasonable. I'm so pleased and impressed with the entire process and final result! I will gladly recommend JD Maintenance and Repair to anyone needing home maintenance and repair services. It was a pleasure and will be ongoing!"

"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."

Tree Service FAQs, 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.

Stay inside or well away until the storm passes. Don’t go outside to inspect the tree until the weather clears, especially if the tree is on a hill or isolated in a field. Lightning often strikes the same easily-accessed places multiple times, and you could be a new target. If a lightning strike causes a noticeable fire, alert emergency services. When the storm is over, take a closer look to gauge the damage done.

When a palm tree no longer produces new fronds and old fronds start turning yellow-brown, that’s a sign the tree is dying. However, transplanted palm trees can show these signs for the first several months as they re-establish themselves. It’s best to keep watering and not give up on the palm tree until a couple of seasons have passed and you’re sure it’s not coming back to life.

You can trim just one side of the tree, especially when that side is growing near something like a power line or a home. Pros will carefully trim the tree back until it is safe from that structure. While this is common, it also needs to be done with the utmost care, as pruning or trimming away at one side of the tree may make it structurally unsound. This instance is yet another where hiring a pro is wise, especially if power lines are involved.

A tree can split because of high winds, a change in temperature, or from an infestation or tree disease. All of these factors can overlap, making a single cause difficult to pinpoint. While winter storms are some of the most common causes for a tree to split, it can also happen because of termites or rot.
