"Jose removed numerous, large trees from my yard. I hired him multiple times for tree removal and he always does a phenomenal job. He is professional and is definitely an expert at tree removal. Some of the trees were close to my house etc and there was never a problem. I would hire him again and I recommend him for any type of tree work."

"I called Mr. Riggs on Aug. 27, and he came by the day we called to give us an estimate, which we thought was very reasonable for the amount of branches we had cut down.  He was going to try to come that Friday evening if he could, but did not make it because he was working on another job that ran long, which he had warned us about.  We were not in a hurry, so that was fine.  I called him the next week, and he apologized for taking so long, and showed up in the next couple of days.  In all fairness, he also had to wait because it had been raining for several days and he could not have driven through my yard until it was dry.  He and his crew loaded up our huge pile of limbs, and totally raked and cleaned up everything.  He also gave us a very good estimate for cutting down and hauling off a couple of other trees we need to get down, and we will call him about those soon.  He is a very nice man, very professional, and we will definitely use him again!

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Lexington, TN

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.
