"Steve O. , Terrace Heights, Yakima. Project: Fell 2 dead pines, grind 3 stumps. I am a property project manager, I do not hand out 5* ratings very easily. I have dealt with properties in multiple states and cities... Finding Big R was a huge win me; not only getting my work done, but also in restoring my confidence of value for dollar, honest business owners. You can hire the big companies and pay big company dollars to get the assurance it will be done right... sometimes needing to deal with customer service...but eventually you will get it done right. Big R is a Small business with just the right size crew and right-sized equipment for the a very technical job; expandable to get what needed to be done quickly and efficiently. Raul was incredible, very professional : punctual, ready with all the equipment needed, pre-planned and staged the work statement, respectfully communicative, and very honest in letting me know what would not be cost effective (to save me $.. a tree I was going to have him prune to save.... "wish I could, but you will just have me back to remove it in a year or two, its just too far gone." Two very tall and dead pines were very close to my wood house with a cedar shake roof... he dropped them perfectly w/o damage to house or neighbor's fence...impressive. Perhaps many could do that (not me, but many), but the value for the job was even more impressive. The bid was one of the lower bids received out of the 4, which spanned from $2,500 up to $6,200 (frankly, I don't think that guy on top wanted the job)..... Get at least 3 bids... make sure Big R is one of them. and for sure read reviews and talk with Raul personally about what he proposes and why. I am well pleased with their work. Steve O."

"Francisco of Sanchez Lawn Care did an awesome job trimming my bushes and trees. Cleaned everything up and took 2 trips to the dump. Very polite, on time, and kept me informed on his progress. Very reasonably priced and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend him and will use him in the future."

"My giant cherry tree fell over at 5pm and I called Brian for emergency tree removal. The next morning, he had a crew out to chop down and chip the tree. He then came out with the stump grinder and took care of the rest. It was all done by 1:00pm!! I cannot recommend Sound Stump more highly. I was in a situation where the rest of the tree could have fallen and done serious damage to property. Brian saved the day; the arborists were incredibly kind, conscientious, and helpful, which I especially appreciated in an emergency. This is an exemplary company. Thank you, Brian!"

"Great, fast work with a smile! They did an excellent job removing a falling tree from my front yard. The cleanup was very thorough, too. They came out of their way to help me (I live in a remote, rural area in Western Washington near the mountains). They gave me a great price, too. I highly recommend OSO Landscaping!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

You need to remove all branches affected by Dutch elm disease. If your tree has several affected branches, you will probably need to remove the entire tree. First, consult a pro to be sure that you’ve correctly identified it as an elm tree. Make sure the tree is properly disposed of with a plastic covering or through debarking, chipping, or burning.

Light-bark trees are most notorious for producing lots of sap when wounded. These varieties include maples, birches, poplars, dogwoods, magnolias, and elms, and they will bleed more when the trees are dormant. That’s why it’s a good idea to prune them in the summer months rather than waiting until winter.

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. 

You can find pruning paints and sealants for trees, but you shouldn’t use them on a topped tree. Coatings like these often inhibit the tree’s healing process. An important exception is if there are dangerous fungi nearby that the tree is particularly vulnerable to, like oaks and oak wilt. Sealing cuts can help prevent fungi from taking root.

The amount of time it takes for a tree trunk to rot depends on several factors, including the tree’s size, species, and environmental conditions. It can take anywhere from a few years to several decades for a tree’s trunk to rot. A tree stump, on the other hand, can take up to 10 years to disappear after it’s decayed naturally.
