"After careful consideration we chose Braley and Finnegan to do a landscaping project for us. They did an excellent job cleaning up and removing the plants in front of our porch. They then picked new plants for the front of our house that were low maintenance and would not overgrow like our previous ones. They also brought in any necessary dirt and mulched. We loved their work and decided to hire them to improve our lawn and for regular maintenance and mowing. Our lawn has improved drastically since we started working with Braley and Finnegan. They are our go to company for any work that needs to be done in our yard!"

Comprehensive Residential and Commercial Property Services to include the following: Lawn Care Mulch Delivery and Installation Spring/Fall Cleanup Leaf Removal Snow Removal.

"I have a fairly large piece of property. Prior owners didn't do any fall cleanup. You couldn't even remotely see the lawn or the driveway. Gutters were all overflowing with leaves and sticks, huge areas of bramble that had to be removed, hedges that ran the length of the property that were all seriously overgrown, and low hanging branches. Let me tell you, I got home today and i was in shock how absolutely amazing the yard looked. They accomplished soooo much work in a short period of time and it was simply beautiful! The price was very reasonable. I don't think I could have found any company to do a better job at a better price. Give these guys a shot, you will not be disappointed! Thanks Outdoor Property Services - you guys are amazing..."

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in East Lyme, CT

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.
