"This company did a great job. They showed up on time, had a competitive estimate, did a great job in cutting the limbs, cleaning up and clearing everything up. I highly recommend this company."
A tree fell on a house and we made it out to them the same day to have the tree safely removed from the roof.

"I have been a homeowner in Northeast Columbia, SC for more than 30 years. With many pine trees on our property I've had to deal with a number of tree removal companies over the years. I have found Rokey Branch Utilities (RBU) far beyond any of the many companies I have encountered and used for extensive tree work. They were immediately responsive to my initial contact - showed up on time - gave a good estimate - cut the tree down being sensitive not to damage my lawn - cleaned up even the smallest debris and carried it off. The team was gone within an hour of arrival with no evidence they had been in the yard. Rich Tinneny"

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Irmo, SC

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.
