Welcome to Gold Country Tree Inc. We proudly provide the highest quality of service and craftsmanship for each aspect of your project. We have more than 15 years of experience in the tree care industry. We specialize in hazardous tree removal, ornamental pruning, insurance compliance, fire abatement, and brush clearing services. Whether you just want to spruce up your property, or you are having a hazardous tree emergency, we've got you covered!

"Gold Country performed defensible space compliance at my Tahoe Donner property. They removed about a dozen marked trees, cleared brush, removed pine litter, ground stumps, and pruned branches overhanging the 3-story roof. The only reasons they did not earn 5-stars are that one marked tree was overlooked (the ribbon was obscured by foliage) and one raked pile was forgotten in the rear of the property. Otherwise, it was very easy to work with Amanda at the office and they were able to get to the job a day earlier than originally projected. Scott's reporting was also excellent."

"My request was the following: I wanted an Arborist, which Bruno is, to examine my tree and tell me exactly how the work would be done. On the work day he arrived and explained to me and his two assistants in great detail the requirements of the job. The tree was trimmed exactly as I requested; the tree will continue to provide a perfect shade canopy over my deck. I hired three different tree companies to trim trees on my property; the results were terrible. The work that Bruno and his crew provided was beyond reproach. When the work was completed, the crew cleaned up the all the debris; their work was meticulous. If you want tree work done, look no further than Bruno Tree Service"

Tree stump removals FAQs

Yes, grinding a stump is worthwhile if you plan to use the area for planting, recreation, or building. Removing the stump clears space for new landscaping or construction projects. Additionally, as the stump decomposes, it can rob the soil of nitrogen, affecting the growth of other plants. Stumps are also a tripping hazard, making removal a wise choice.

The time it takes to grind a stump depends on its size, density, and the grinder's performance. A small, soft stump can be ground in 15 minutes, while a large, dense stump may require up to eight hours for complete removal. Factors like the stump's structure and your grinding technique affect how quickly you can remove it.

Grinding a stump is often the best solution for clearing an area for construction or planting. It removes the visible portion of the stump, but the roots remain underground. If you need to remove the roots for long-term stability or design plans, you'll need to hire a professional for full stump and root removal. This ensures your site is completely cleared for future projects.

Leaving a tree stump in your yard can cause several problems. It can become a breeding ground for pests and diseases that might harm nearby trees and structures. Plus, the decaying stump can interfere with your landscaping plans, making mowing difficult and promoting unwanted new growth that can disrupt soil stability. Removing the stump eliminates these risks and improves your yard's safety and appearance.

To effectively kill a stump, you need to interrupt its nutrient supply and speed up decay. Drill holes into the stump and fill them with a concentrated herbicide like glyphosate, rock salt, or Epsom salt. This method ensures the substance penetrates deeply. Alternatively, cover the stump with a dark, heavy-duty tarp to deprive it of sunlight, which accelerates the process. Remember to follow safety guidelines when using these methods.
