"Troy with TWC was very responsive, professional, and talented. We had a large-sized tree break off and fall on our backyard fence. He was not only able to quote us same day, he offered a competitive price and was able to bring heavy duty equipment same day and complete the tree removal with precision and expertise. Will absolutely hire TWC again and highly recommend them to others!!"

"We needed a 20x16 area of topsoil removed and gravel added for a new deck build. TWC was prompt, professional, and did excellent work for a very reasonable cost. Will be looking to hire them again this spring for another project."

"July 9, 2023 The tree removal project on my property in my opinion, separates the tree cutters from the tree surgeons. A 60 plus foot tree (honey maple), with a bifurcating trunk diameter of 36 to 40 inches, and branches—thin and thick, extending 40 feet around, and over my house required expert attention and skill. All of the previous tree contractors I interviewed required rigging and roping procedures. Ken Fisher III—LumberJack Tree Service took the job and performed it himself with his thirteen year old son supervising on July 8, 2023. His pricing was great, a thousand plus dollars cheaper than his competitors. His communication skills were straight forward and dependable. Ken Fisher of LumberJack Tree Service is at the prime of his chosen profession. And at the level of a tree surgeon, not just a tree cutter. His skill level in my opinion, incorporates three tree removal specialists. Ken Fisher III is a one man crew of three. He brought his thirteen year old son, Ken the 4th (they really like the name Ken) to supervise and make sure that his dad doesn't slack off. Ken the 4th, is fortunate to have a dad like Ken the 3rd. I don’t need years of experience in the tree removal business, to assess and determine when a professional is at the top of his craft. I have enough life experience to qualify me. It was exciting and a joy watching Ken perform his expertise, never compromising safety. Roque Lachica Jr. Hometown, PA"

"A recent storm took down a tree at our business. I reached out to them and within an hour they called. They happened to be working at a nearby location and offered to come by to evaluate the work. I asked that they remove the fallen pear tree and also remove the other that was still standing. They were actually able to do it that day and by noon the trees were down, cut up, stumps ground and everything cleaned up. That's great service! A big thanks for their help. Highly recommend."

"Super customer service all the way through. Their estimate was reasonable--$950 to remove a very large, very dead ok tree. We got two other estimates, one from a company with awful reviews, and one from another company for $75 less, but they had no idea when they could do it... not a terrible sin, but for $75 more Rogers & Sons Affordable Lawn and Tree Care got it done right away. The crews (one for taking it down, one for grinding the stump) were both hard working and courteous. They ground down large roots that were close to the surface, too, and when all was said and done, they cleaned up. The only hint they'd been there was the missing tree and patch of dirt. Real pros. I'm having them out to price other tree/landscaping work and will hire them again if we can. Highly recommend."

"Their logo says A small price for a peace of mind and its true. I have been worried about this tree that needed removed for years. Many people over quoted and many never showed up. However The Tree Bros LLC came to the rescue. They are a dedicated professional team that show a general care for people and listen to their needs. Safely is their first priority without a doubt. Thank you for everything and I will definitely recommend them."

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Dover, PA

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.
