"Mike was the third of four tree services that we arranged to have provide us with an estimate. He visited the house, took a look at the trees, and discussed removal with us. His estimate was that his crew could remove both trees in one day, which was faster than several of the other estimates we received. I checked with him for proof of insurance, which he promptly provided, and asked a few questions about his business. Mike provided an estimate that was right in line with most of the other estimates. Because of the stellar reviews that he had on Angie's List, we felt confident hiring. After discussing a few final details, we returned the contract. Scheduling was difficult because of the weather, but Mike remained in touch until we found a day that worked. Mike and his crew arrived in the morning. My wife stayed home that day and said that they laid plywood to protect the yard from the skidder and lift. She said that the crews were efficient and that they were wearing protective equipment. Before noon, they had the trees removed. When I arrived home that night, I observed that the yard was basically as it was before, with very minimal signs that the equipment and crew had been there. The crew cut the stumps or the trees to the ground as far as possible (we did not opt for stump grinding based on the location of the trees), and they picked up all of the debris. We greatly appreciate Mike's attention to detail and the care and concern with which his crew worked. We would absolutely hire him again."

"When we contacted him, he called back immediately and scheduled an appointment. He showed and was done removing our tree stump without about 30-40 minutes. He did a nice job and did not leave a mess."

"The work went well and was speedy.  The owner used about a five to seven man crew.  He used a lift crane to cut branches down and lowered them with ropes to his team.  His team used used a powerful wood chipper to handle the branches and saws to cut limbs into manageable sizes.  They also hauled away the trunk of the tree on a flatbed truck.  
Clean Up: They laid plywood under their equipment that was on our grass to keep the grass from being damaged.  They also swept up the street and grabbed lose debris that was in our yard from the tree. 
Sidenote: The tree was about three feet from our home so I was especially concerned about roof damage but the crew took great care not to damage our house.

"Gary and his team of men showed up on the Fourth of July on one of the hottest days of the year. They were friendly and professional. They climbed trees, sawed and chipped limbs for a day and a half. When they were done the trees look gorgeous, the yard is immaculate and we couldn’t be happier. Neighbors are already asking who we hired ?. We highly recommend this team for any tree trimming needs!!!"

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Mascoutah, IL

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.
