"In addition to the professional work done to remove 2 large trees endangering our house, great care was taken to maximize personal safety and to protect other trees, power lines, and surrounding vegetation. But perhaps the most remarkable quality of 3 C's work was the personal warmth and commitment to relationships and customer satisfaction that characterize their professional ethic. We greatly appreciated their regular communication before, during, and after their service, and their attention to detail, including follow-up clean-up. We strongly recommend this family-operated enterprise."

"Not an emergency, but time was a factor and that request was honored. Worked a very large oak within four feet of the house with no damage and coordinated with the required crane company. Good job, well done. Would highly recommend. Called a couple of tree services who never showed up for their estimate appointments. Town and Country's quote was commensurate with those that showed."

"My husband, Jeff, and I are so happy with the work Bryant did for us removing 5 very large trees that were leaning towards our home and VERY close as well. He was professional, friendly, courteous and listened to our needs. He removed the trees and left our yard in perfect condition (my husband and I can't stop looking at the yard as it looks better than before Bryant started). You can't even tell (except for the stumps we wanted left) we've had trees removed! AMAZING JOB DONE?"

"I had a Groupon for 1000 sq. ft. of driveway sealing.  I have about 2000 sq. ft.  I bought the Groupon and called, and I was told it would be another $170, so I wanted to set the appointment.  It actually took a year to get done, as he had too many Groupon customers and was giving scheduling preference to his existing client base.  Once we had the appointment, they arrived on time, could not have been more pleasant, did a great job, and left the area spotless.

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Dexter, ME

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.
