"The tree proximity on the property made this a very difficult job to execute. Even so, the removal of the 11 very large eucalyptus trees was handled with great professionalism. We highly recommend Lead Saw Tree Service. Eugene and Carol Crovetti"

"Rock's Tree & Hillside Service were fantastic. They were great. Their price was half or 2/3 what everybody else was going to charge me. They were on time and they did the job in half the time. I thought it was going to take whole day, but they were done in 3 hours and they cleaned up after themselves.  They were fantastic, they were efficient, clean, fast and reasonable. I called up a few people and they were the lowest and they came when they said they would. It was a big job, it was trees that had become so big, they were beginning to crack the foundation so it was a big job and they took the root out."

"Thank you so much for an Outstanding Job!! Fidel and Contractors were professional, polite and kind. Arrived promptly -- trimmed, sawed, removed the trees and stumps . . . cleared ALL Debris away. And, they also went beyond the stump and tree removal by digging 4 holes for me to plant my edible trees!! I will hire them again and again!! Highly Recommended!!"

"They did a wonderful job at removing the big liquid amber tree from our small backyard in a timely and professional manner. They also ground out the large stump and cleaned up the scattered branches. The cost was very reasonable."

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Duarte, CA

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.
