"I was scheduled for lawn service on July 3, but provider never showed up or contacted me that he wouldn't be able to service my lawn for that day. I texted him and asked what happened? He stated he was overwhelmed and that he would stop by July 4 or July 5 to service my lawn. July 4 came and went with no call or no show. I then texted and stated if he was not able to service my lawn then I would have to hire someone else. He replied, okay. Very unprofessional. I would never recommend or rehire Superior Lawn Care LLC again."

Eco greens Lawn Care is a full service all electric lawn care company Making sure your lawn is to your liking while staying clean and quiet. Started in 2022 as a side job and in 2023 decided to go bigger and starting to grow the company. I wanted to go electric because I could not stand the smell and sound of all the gas equipment from all of my neighbors and when I started using the electric equipment on other peoples yards, they loved it

"All the services that I paid for were done extremely well and had no problems, would highly recommend, they get a big ole thumbs up from me 👍"

Tree stump removals FAQs

Yes, grinding a stump is worthwhile if you plan to use the area for planting, recreation, or building. Removing the stump clears space for new landscaping or construction projects. Additionally, as the stump decomposes, it can rob the soil of nitrogen, affecting the growth of other plants. Stumps are also a tripping hazard, making removal a wise choice.

The time it takes to grind a stump depends on its size, density, and the grinder's performance. A small, soft stump can be ground in 15 minutes, while a large, dense stump may require up to eight hours for complete removal. Factors like the stump's structure and your grinding technique affect how quickly you can remove it.

Grinding a stump is often the best solution for clearing an area for construction or planting. It removes the visible portion of the stump, but the roots remain underground. If you need to remove the roots for long-term stability or design plans, you'll need to hire a professional for full stump and root removal. This ensures your site is completely cleared for future projects.

Leaving a tree stump in your yard can cause several problems. It can become a breeding ground for pests and diseases that might harm nearby trees and structures. Plus, the decaying stump can interfere with your landscaping plans, making mowing difficult and promoting unwanted new growth that can disrupt soil stability. Removing the stump eliminates these risks and improves your yard's safety and appearance.

To effectively kill a stump, you need to interrupt its nutrient supply and speed up decay. Drill holes into the stump and fill them with a concentrated herbicide like glyphosate, rock salt, or Epsom salt. This method ensures the substance penetrates deeply. Alternatively, cover the stump with a dark, heavy-duty tarp to deprive it of sunlight, which accelerates the process. Remember to follow safety guidelines when using these methods.
