As a local lawn care services company, we understand the challenges that lawns in Minnesota face. Maintaining a healthy lawn in the Minneapolis area is no easy task. Not to mention, doing all the hard work yourself means you end up spending more time taking care of your outdoor space than actually enjoying it. Let our team of lawn pros help and provide you with the healthy, thriving lawn your family deserves. We will work with you to address your concerns and answer any questions you may have!

**WE DO NOT DO TREE TRIMMING AND OUR MINIMUM PROJECT IS $1,000** Please call today to schedule your appointment 612-499-3938 Locally owned and operated full service tree Care Company serving clients throughout all of Minnesota. We pride ourselves on offering quality service at an affordable price and making sure the customer always is satisfied. Our professionals are among the best in the tree service industry and are trained to provide you with the solutions you need as well as the quality you deserve.

"Fantastic, efficient, courteous, skilled, generous and very reasonably priced. That’s just some of the words I would use to describe the work that Perfect Landscape did for some tree removal at my house. I had estimates from 6 or 7 tree removal companies referred to me by Angi’s and Perfect Landscape was the most reasonably priced. They came twice to my house, first removing a very tall dead ash tree in the front yard on Friday without using their crane. They then came back the following Tuesday and used their crane to remove a tall oak tree (which was close to my house) from my fenced back yard along with a neighbor’s oak tree that was split and sure to fall on my house at some point if not removed. I can’t say enough about the great job Ryan and his crew from Perfect Landscape did. They were efficient, courteous and cleaned up any leftover tree branches etc. from my yard, the street and anything that may have fallen in a neighbor’s yard. The owner Rodney was very reasonable and generous adding an additional tree to their Tuesday workload, again at a very reasonable price. The use of their crane was essential to lift out my huge dead oak tree from my fenced back yard without having to remove the fence or damaging the yard or house. Three cuts and lifts and the tree was gone. Likewise, they removed a neighbor’s tree from between our front yards again using their crane. I highly recommend Perfect Landscape if you need any trees removed and want it done in a timely and professional manner. Many thanks again to Rodney (the owner) and Ryan and his crew for the great work they did."

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Cottage Grove, MN

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.
