"Excellent service by Will at Precision. I was notified by my neighbor that a tree fell onto another tree in danger of fall further and close to a power line. Another storm was anticipated so I wanted to have the tree removed immediately before it could do more damage. I found precision on Angi’s list. Will reached out within seconds, made a trip to the property same day, and removed the tree the day after. Then he sent me a video of the tree coming down and pics of the clean up to update me with status. The best service that I have witnessed in a long time and for a reasonable price. I will use Precision again for other trees and I highly, highly recommend Will and Precision for your tree removal projects. Thanks again Will!"
This one could be done with the bucket truck .
Had to rope down this one cause it was in a close area.

"I was very satisfied with the response from Travis and the quick timing to get the job done, especially since the tree was down on my neighbor's property.  His men were very polite with my wife and did a great job.

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Cornelius, NC

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.
