"When you want to get a tree removed, look no further than Brandywine Tree and Shrub. I contacted Mark along with five other companies to get an estimate. Brandywine tree was the lowest bid with a crane. I had gotten two lower bids but those companies were going to do it by hand and they didn’t seem very safe to me. I decided to go with Brandywine Tree and Shrub because of how knowledgeable they were and how well Mark and John explained everything to me. This company worked with me and assured me that the safest way to remove that gigantic tree was with a crane. They were so right, and I felt that I absolutely made the right decision. The tree which belonged to my neighbor was an Oak Tree that stood over a 100 ft. in the air and the huge branches hang dangerously over my roof. The neighbor was not financially able to cut the tree and since it was hanging 80% on my side, I decided it was safer to pay to cut it down than for it to fall and risk the lives of myself, my husband and my kids. For two years since we bought that house, we had anxiety and we were worried sick that the tree was going to fall on our home. Brandywine Tree and Shrub removed the tree in about 9 hours on Tuesday, and by Friday we had a Nor’easter with very high winds. A lot of trees fell in the neighborhood. According to the news, seven people died in the States that were affected and all were because of fallen trees. Two children died while they were asleep in bed. This made me realize that this could have been my family. I am so grateful to Brandywine Tree and Shrub for fitting me in their schedule to remove that monstrous tree. The team was very professional and they worked safely and effectively. They blew all the leaves from my lawn, raked and cleared all the debris and left my yard spotless. My family can finally sleep without worrying about that humongous tree. The place looks so much nicer and we are much safer because of a company that cared and delivered on everything they promised. Thank you, Brandywine Tree and Shrub! My family sleeps safer and we are forever grateful for a job well done!"

"Quick response for estimate. Once contract signed, tree was taken down about one week later, and stump one week after that. Overall their administration could be improved, as we were not notified in advance for the tree removal until the trucks were almost onsite. Billing follow-up was poor."

"I would recommend LA's Quality Tree Service to anyone who wants a professional tree service After the blow of high winds left our yard with one 80 foot tree uprooted and crashing down on two other smaller trees and numerous other tree damage. Luis came out with in an hour after calling his company. Gave a very fair price. The crew came out the next day and started the clean up. They were on time every morning and worked two full days. Cutting down six trees (25' to 80') Lots of downed branches (some 25' long and about 18" thick) and grinded the tree stump. The whole crew was professional, cleaned up every evening. Thankful we found LA's Quality Tree Service."

Very professional, communication was prompt, super friendly and any request that I had William Cochran was able to deliver on.

"Leo, owner of V & P Tree Services, his son and a staff member, removed one large cherry tree and trimmed high branches on our tree in the backyard. Leo came to do a free estimate early last month and gave me a great price. He honored that price; no bait and switch nonsense. They arrived on time and went to work carefully and professionally removing all potential property damage. They ground the stump down to lawn level and cleaned all debris. We want to plant new trees in the spring so I’ll definitely be calling V & P again."

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Claymont, DE

Always transport chainsaws with the engine off and chain brake engaged. Use the protective bar cover provided by the rental company to prevent accidental contact with the cutting chain. Position the chainsaw securely in your vehicle to prevent movement during transit, ideally in a truck bed or trunk rather than the passenger compartment. 

For gas models, ensure the fuel cap is tight and position the saw to minimize potential leakage. Keep the chainsaw away from passengers and other items that could be damaged.

Proper safety equipment is essential when operating any chainsaw. At minimum, you should have eye protection (safety glasses or a face shield), hearing protection (earplugs or earmuffs), cut-resistant gloves, chainsaw chaps or pants, and sturdy boots with good traction. 

Many rental facilities offer basic safety kits alongside chainsaw rentals. If you'll be using chainsaws regularly, investing in quality personal safety gear is advisable. Never operate a chainsaw without appropriate protective equipment, regardless of the job size.

While rental companies will rent chainsaws to beginners, inexperience significantly increases safety risks. If you've never used a chainsaw before, request a demonstration from the rental staff and thoroughly review the operator's manual before starting. Begin with smaller, more manageable cutting tasks to build comfort with the tool's operation. 

For significant cutting jobs, consider either taking a chainsaw safety course first or hiring professionals instead. The learning curve for safe chainsaw operation is steep, and caution is paramount.

If mechanical problems develop during your rental, immediately cease operation and contact the rental company. Most reputable rental businesses will either provide a replacement chainsaw or repair the equipment if the breakdown resulted from normal use rather than misuse. Document the issue with photographs when possible and maintain records of when you reported the problem. 

Having your rental agreement readily available when you call will expedite the resolution process. The rental company should adjust your rental period to account for any downtime.
