We drive on excellence for our customer satisfaction only sub contactor we use is a retired state trooper for stumpgrinding. I am owner and operator that means I do the estimate and do the work on job at all times.I bring as many employees as needed for job. We accept all major credit card for a small processing fee. Payment is due on completion of job as log as customer is satisfied. If customers are not able to be available on completion we only ask for payment to be sent in mail in an orderly fashion.

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review for Artistic Touch Tree Service We recently hired Artistic Touch Tree Service, owned and operated by Chad, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the entire experience. It was very easy to obtain an estimate from Chad, and we worked with his office manager, Becki, to coordinate the details. We let them know what we wanted done and that we were in no hurry — scheduling the work 4 to 6 weeks out was perfectly fine. Four homes on our cul-de-sac coordinated together for various tree projects. Some had trees removed with firewood left behind and stacked neatly, while others requested all debris to be hauled away and shredded for mulch. Chad arrived with a professional crew of about nine people who worked hard for roughly four and a half hours. They removed eight trees, trimmed six more, and cleaned up so thoroughly that you’d never know they had been there. The price was extremely reasonable, especially compared to similar work I’ve had done in the past. The team operated safely and efficiently, with three climbers carefully topping and lowering trees to avoid any damage to nearby trees, our deck, or neighboring properties. Chad was professional, knowledgeable, and accommodating. He knew exactly how to trim each tree — whether lightly or more moderately — and happily handled a few additional requests we made on the day of the job. All four homeowners were extremely satisfied and would highly recommend Artistic Touch Tree Service to anyone. We already plan to have them back next year to trim our ornamental trees. It was also great to learn that Chad and his team have done work for our homeowners association, neighboring subdivisions, multiple cities around Central Indiana, and even for the State of Indiana. A first-class experience from start to finish!"

BearCo. Tree Service is your go-to choice for all your tree service needs in Indianapolis. With our full-service approach and commitment to customer satisfaction, we stand out from the competition. Contact us today for top-quality tree services that you can rely on.

"BearCo was very professional from the estimate process to the actual work. The trucks arrived with a wood chipper, powered dolly to carry the logs, a stump grinder, and a crew. The work included removing multiple dead trees, hauling the wood out of a very wooded back yard, grinding a few stumps, and cleanup. The on-site person in charge was very easy to work with. I was very happy with the results, and I would hire them again. Between the time of the estimate and the actual work, Indy had a bad storm which caused one of my live trees to uproot and lean against a neighbor’s tree. Another windstorm could make it fall against my neighbor’s house or fence. BearCo made a special trip out before the original work and removed the leaning tree. They charged me a reasonable fee for this extra trip. I really appreciate that BearCo made that special effort."

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Columbus, IN

The time it takes to grind a stump depends on its size and the type of wood. Small, softwood stumps take only 15 minutes to remove, while large, hardwood stumps can take several hours. Before the project begins, ask your stump grinding pro for an estimate so you can plan accordingly.

There are several alternative methods to stump removal, including winching it with mechanical equipment, cutting it with a chainsaw, grubbing out the stump and roots, initiating a burn with the required permits, activating natural rotting processes, and applying chemical treatments to expedite decay. Each method offers its own advantages and safety requirements, so it is important to select the option that best suits your project and complies with local regulations.

The cost of tree removal typically doesn't include stump grinding. Removing a stump requires different equipment and skills than cutting down a tree. If you want both services, your contractor will often charge extra for grinding the stump. However, bundling tree removal and stump grinding can sometimes save you money, so it's worth asking about package deals.

Pest issues in a tree stump do not slow down the grinding process. The decay accelerated by pests can make grinding more efficient. However, if an infestation is present, it is important to arrange for pest control afterward to safeguard the health of your garden. Ensuring thorough pest management after stone removal supports long-term yard stability and prevents further damage.
