"Did an amazing job. I had around 8 stumps around my property that needed to go. He is very fast and professional. After he finished his work, I had no idea where the stumps used to be because he cleaned up his work very well. Great price, great service. I would hire him again in a heartbeat!"

"A Absolute Tree Services did a GREAT job!! My neighbor and I had our oak trees/stumps removed from our front yards. Gene came out and provided company background, what to expect and sent the quote via email with insurance documentation included. Once we submitted our agreement from the quote to move forward, he called to set up the appointment. Gene and/or Brett was on site the 1.5 days of work. The company was punctual both days, worked quickly, and left our yards spotless. The entire crew was courteous…respectful. I highly recommend!!"

"Josh (the "J" in JAG) and his crew are skilled and very professional. I've used them twice for complicated tree removal and trimming, and the work has been outstanding each time. Stump removal is by far the best I've experienced. They also carefully and completely cleanup, leaving the property as well as-or even better than--they found it. Prices are reasonable and definitely of high value."

"Very responsive. Got the huge limbs hanging over house and power lines done safely in one day. They will return with a crane to finish removing the trunk. This is a huge 6' diameter very old oak tree."

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Clearwater, FL

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.
